Christmas Gifts and Good Will

VOU know, the value
i Of a gift isn't in

good will it represents.
Just now, when the

than anything else, it is
a good idea to put extra
emphasis on the Good

For reasons of econo-
my, all gifts this year
should be useful gifts;
find out what your

later; give something
like that.
There are plenty Of
such gifts; you'll find
lots of them here in
