been well described as having
what is wanted, where it is want
ed. when it is wanted, and at a
reasonable price. Gorhams sue
cessfully meets these conditions.
BIT YOU want to buy or at least
select your Christmas gifts before
they are really wanted.
Because, if you wait until you
really 7OaH them before you buy,
the chances are you may decide
not to buy at all, or you may
make sorry selection.
Funny how we forget every
year how bad the shopping crush
was the year before. We only
remember it when we put on
buying our presents until three or
four days before Christmas, ana
then go into a shop and find the
people ten deep in front of all the
counters.
You have to fight your way
through the jam, and then make
bad Job OF your purchase, end
ing possibly by taking something
YOU don't want.
This year Corham's is spending
great deal Of money advertising
and providing special facilities in
an effort to induce shoppers to
buy early. The reason is that it
is a first principle with the Cor
ham Company to please custom
ers. and the Gorham management
knows that its customers will be
much better pleased if they make
their Christmas purchases now,
instead OF waiting until the holt
day crush.
To help along this plan, the
Gorham Christmas stock has been
installed much earlier than is Gus
ton1ary, and you can make your
Christmas selections to-day II
YOU are ready to take the Gorham
advice and buy early.
This Christmas stock is un-
usually complete and attractive.
The range and variety will SUR
prise those customers who are no
very familiar with the Oorha1
business. Not less than l/OO dit
ferent individual articles are Of
fered in the Gorham stores. A
very great number OF these are
designed and made especially tor
Christmas presents. You cannot
fail to find the kind Of article you
want.
Special delivery service has
been provided by Gorhan' IN
anticipation of early Christmas
shopping. But if you do not want
to have your presents delivered at
YOUR house now, all you have to
do is to make selection, give di-
rections for the engraving and
leave the address, and your pres
ent will be delivered just before
Christmas. You can dismiss It
from your mind.
Early Christmas shopping in
sures a more thoughtful selection
OF presents. Better not send
Christmas present at all than send
some foolish, haphazarded selec-
ton. The clerks have plenty o.
time now to show you everything
in stock.
This is a good time to reform
if YOU are one of the eleventh
hour Christmas shoppers. Save
Yourself from nerve strain, AND
give your friends the pleasure o.
enjoying an appropriate gift, by
buying your presents early.
You will find more complete
array of Christmas articles now

EVENING CHAT
Two Kinds of Memory.
BIT RUTA CAMERON.

Did you ever happen to notice in study
ing yourself and those around you, that
there are two distinct kinds of memory
possessed by different people; the mental
memory and the visual memory.
That is, some people remember every
thing facts in relation to other facts,
while other people remember everything
usually as if their minds contained actual
Photographic imprints of the scenes or
events.
Perhaps that isn't entirely plain to you.
Let me try TO make 1T simpler by a con-
crete example.
L have a friend who has the visual mem
DRY in very strong form. Now, have a
terrible faculty for losing things. One
day when I was shopping I met this
utes and then I passed on. Some time
during the day I managed to mislay an
important bundle. To assist me in my
Investigations I wanted to find at what
time lost it and so 1 called up my friend
and asked her if L had that bundle in my
possession when she saw me. She knew
at once. Yes, you had it under your
right arm she said. you had two
smaller bundles under your left arm, and
your wrist bag on your left wrist"
1 have no doubt that she could have
gone on and described every detail of my
costume from the crown of my hat to the
rubber heels on my walking shoes.
That's what I mean by visual memory.
Now have a mental memory. 1 could
have told exactly what we two said, but
except that my friend wore something
blue and looked very nice, L couldn't have
called up single visual detail of our
meeting. This girl and 1 went to the
same school and studied together. Some
times we would want to turn to some
passage in a book we had studied and
she would say, 1T was on the right hand
page near the bottom" while I would
know that 1T was right after that part
about CharIemagne"
She remembered dates by the looks of
them; I, either by a sheer effort of will,
or by some associated fact.
1 can never remember how people look;
I cannot even clearly call up the facts OF
those 1 love best when L am absent from
them Fugitive glimpses will sometimes
come to me uncalled, but when 1 make a
deliberate effort to recall a face 1 cannot
get it at all.
Descriptions of places in fiction bore
me to extinction. L was talking about
this to a friend with whom I read a great
deal. She enjoys them immensely, and by
comparing notes we came to the con-
clusion that this is because she is a visual
thinker and gets a mental picture, while
l, being a mental thinker, get none.
Perhaps picture thinker" and thought
thinker might be better terms to describe
these two classes
1t is always interesting to analyze ones
self, because one IS sure of interesting
subject and an interested audience. SO
perhaps you'd like to decide to which
class you belong.
