Everyday Adventures
That Changes Everything

Nat OuduS6S ENtl LIllAIS
When you've finished making out
your Christmas present list after
many hours of bordering and you
don't see how it would be possible
to have forgotten any one
Cause you've included all of the
family and many relatives, both of
the close and distant type
And you've gone over that friend
ship list so often you could say it
backwards in your sleep
When suddenly you get a Christ
mas gift ahead of the time from
that old school "roomy" out on the
Pacific Coast that you had forgot
ten and you thought had forgotten
you
And you realize that you both
want to and have to send a return
gift as soon as possible, but you're
wondering what that gift will be
Until you come across the Christ
mas Gift Suggestion columns in
The Palladium.
And That Changes Everything,
For therein few minutes read
ing-you see listed gift that you
know "roomy" will appreciate and
accept as a bond for continued
friendship.
