THE TURNING OF THE
CHRISTMAS TIDE.

IL is the belief of many people that
the tide of extravagant, excessive
Christmas giving has actually turned.
and that we are on the way back t.
mas.
IL is an optimistic belief, but I am
inclined to think that the optimism
Is Justhed. In my own circle of &C
quaintances | know three families In
which Christmas giving has been rad
lcally simplihed. In one. all giving.
except TO the children, has ceased. In
another. all giving among the mem
beers OF the family is omitted by mu-
tual consent although gifts are still
exchanged with outside friends. Per-
sonally / like the simplification OF an
other family better. which is TO give
gifts TO each other but to limit their
gifts to relatives and friends to an
exchange OF cards or Christmas let
/ tiers. incidentally. the money they
used TO spend in broadcast giving is
/ now given 10 those who really need
IL.
Besides these three families, know
OF several others. as ! told you before.
