HOME PRODUCTS WEEK
is ON IN THIS STATE
BUY OREGON MADE GOODS FOR
CHRISTMAS PRESENTS is
SLOGAN.

Home Products Week is now on
and until Saturday night, the people
OF Oregon are expected to remember
Home Industries in their buying.
OFFICIAL recognition Of Home Pro-
ducts Week was made when Governor
Withycombe issued his proclamation,
so designating the week Of December
Bird to 8th, and every Oregpnian is
urged to Buy at least one Christmas
present which is an oregon product
That seems a modest enough re-
quest, but it only serves to show what
Oregonians have in their power to do
for Oregon, If they will. Probably
five hundred thousand people i'm ore
gon are old enough to be buying
Christmas presents this year. Sup
pose We take a modest average Of one
silver dollar for a Christmas gift and
think what this means. With five hun
dred thousand people responding to
this call, with an average eXpendi-
ture Of only onet dollar, it means half
8 million dollars kept in Oregon in
this instance alone. If "A one dollar
response to the Home Industry appeal
can keep anlf d million dollars in Ore
gon, it dazzles the imagination to
think what a power the people of our
state have in their daily possession,
t. make Oregon grow and prosper by
patronizing Home Industries.
Millions Of dollars a month that
leave oregon could be kept in the
state for the people Of Oregon to
spend over and over again with each
other.

There Is no excuse for wearing un-
becoming lingerie. and the idea that
dainty and piquant belongings are the
properties OF adventuresses and their
silk has long since been discarded. No
woman wants 10 be a Puritan In the
matter Of her bOudoir robes, because
as a rule, ultra-conservatism IS only
another word for unattractiveness.
One need not go further into the psy-

course a iit Of lingerie or a negligee

but the most desirable models are dup

there are plenty. but one never sees
them on display in the stores as an
