WHERE CHRISTMAS RE1cNs
a Visit To The Home Of Good Old
Santa Claus.

After walking thru our main street
with "eyes that see", one cannot help
but realize that Christmas Day will
soon dawn upon us. So gorgeously
have most Of our merchants displayed
their stocks that the power Of sug-.
gestion is beginning to reign and we
impulsively walk into this store and
then into that ready to purchase things
which we think will please those who
are most dear to us.
So numerous are the suggestions
in the window displays that all Of us
will surely know just what to get if
we take time to stop and look over
the things which artful hands have
laid out.
Upon passing the store of Mrs.
+. w. Peuser Merry Christmas sign
will greet your, vision, and then you
stop. Oh, yes! here's just the thing
you have been looking for, dainty
tea aprons with all sorts of designs
in appropriate boxes. AS we walk
further on there are skates. We had
ALMOST forgotten about skates, the
Stolz Hardware Co. reminds us once
more that now is the time to get our
skates SO we may partake Of the snap
piest sport the season offers.
Let's see what Mrs. Rinke offers as
a suggestion; what could please daughter
sister or even mother more than a
beautifully embroidered silk camisole,
or silk undersuit? We can see them
here with all sorts Of. designs and colors.
The gentlemen's clothing stores all
remind us that now is the time for
heavy furry caps, coats and robes.
Have you picked the material for that
Christmas suit? Take a peep at Mr..
Metzinger's display. What could
bring you more comfort these chilly
mornings than a heavy robe? While
stopping to take look at them in
passing Crone's Clothing Store, they
almost convey to you just how. warm
t,ey will keep you.
Z here are SO many, many things
t. think about are likely to forget
j st what we really ought to buy,
bit there's someone always kind err
os-sh to make us recall. The Columbia
OK thing Co., and Hummel Bros. as
well as Mr. Sprenger have SO artist
cally displayed all kinds. CT wealirg
apparel that when we look them over
we surely know just what we wanted
o buy.
Did you ever stop to think that window
boxes are beautiful? They are beautiful
in the summertime but Hummel Bros.
have fully convinced us that they are a
sight we delight to see in the winter time.
No one can pass Mr.. Buenger's window
without feeling that you just want to
step into that room and make yourself
at home. We always need things for
the home. What would be more pleas
ing than the Davenport or rug which
Mr.. Forster displays?
This is money spending season surely,
but lets stop to think of next year.
Aren't we going to have Christmas
again, and aren't we going to be ready
to buy just as many things as we are
buying now? Did you ever stop to
think just what a fine thing Xmas
club saving plan is? Take time to drop
in at the Banks. The officers will gladly
explain to you, and then you won't
have to worry next Xmas where you
are going to scare up enough money to
buy all the things you have planned.
Everybody likes to see worn OF other
wise used pretty ribbons, Mr.. Ochs'
window is a gaiety of ribbons, you can
see any thing in the line off gibbons that
your heart desires. His store, too is
filled with dozens and dozens of gifts
suitable for every one.
A glittering spectacle greets your
vision upon passing Crone's. Dept. Store. |
There are furs, fur coats, Kimonos,
kandkerchiefs and oh, so many things,
just too numerous to mention.
Mrs. Dongus has appropriately draped
her window in red and green and has
large line of Bohemian crochet work on
display.
