this. For all anniversaries, if
We give presents, we give ones
that we have wisely determined
will be welcomed by the hostess
and host, and they are of any
material. So, since, as you say,
these hosts "have all the neces-
sary silverware and odds and
ends" do plan to send a present
that you know will be useful to
these friends.
Have you, for instance, con-
Sidered some electrical item?
Never have I seen such lovely
and useful ones as are being
shown this season - handsome
items for buffet serving make a
great hit with all hostesses. Or
something in chromium, serving
dishes or decorative dishes. And
these two groups would be
somewhat affiliated with the

Wedding Anniversary Presents
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Will you please tell me just
what present would be proper
to send to a couple who are
going to celebrate their twenty
fifth wedding anniversary? AS
it is a silver wedding, and they
have all the necessary silver
ware and odds and edds, I'm
simply Stumped for suggestions.

Formerly, when we planned to
send presents for wedding an.
niversaries, it was the custom
to cling tenaciouSly to the idea
of sending a present of the
material customarily listed as
appropriate for that special an
niversary. So, for the twenty
fifth anniversary, We always
gave presents of silver, even if
the household to which we were
sending the present was over.
loaded with silver items.
But now we are sensible about

c. P. District Convention to Open Ton
7 Die in East
Side Fire; 10
Families Flee
2 Mothers, 3 Children
Among Victims; Many
Left Homeless

NEW YORK.-Seven working
class men, women and children were
burned alive when trapped by fire
in an old five-story tenement at
1909 Second Ave. (near goth ST.
early yesterday. Two others, who
are still missing, are believed to be
in the charTed ruins.
The death brings the toll of tene-
ment fire fatalities during the La
Guardia administration to 40. OF
these, 81 have persisted in old-law
tenements in the last Al days.
The victims, trapped in the up
per stories when the flames bit
madly through the rickety wooden
stairway, hadn't a dogs chance to
escape. Those who could reach the
rear windows huddled on the lad
derlesS fire escapes, shivering, watt
ing for the fire apparatus to arrive.
The others, not so fortunate per-
ished in the relentless flames.
The known dead were:
Mrs. Rose BruIO, So; Anna
Brulo, 6, her daughter; DOmin-
ick Flora, 81; Michael Flora, IA;
his son; Mrs. Nancy Dedio, rs,
FlOra's daughter; Frank Dedio,
seven months old, her son; Sam
uel Tirella, 60.
In addition to the seven dead, Is
families, which were crowded into
the old tenement, we're left home
less by the fire.
After the fire apparatus arrived,
the roof and the entire fifth floor,
completely destroyed by the flames,
collapsed. Three of the dead bod
les were found, after the fire had
been extinguished, on the fourth
floor. Firemen declared, however,
that they believed the bodies had
fallen through from the fifth floor
when it collapsed.
Many of the tenants were treated
for injuries, burns and suffocation,
Most of them had nothing left in
the world but the slight apparel
which they we're able to snatch as
they fled from the burning building
It Hurts" Him
Mayor LaGuardia. in commenting
on the tragedy, was, as usual,
panied"
Wen soon have an end to that,
LaGuardia said, repeating his cam
paign statements of four and five
months ago-or forty deaths ago
I've just talked with Fire Com
missioner McFlligott, and he tells
me that the whole building was in
blaze before the alarm went in
at 2:30 am That's the bad thing
about these fires-the delay in send
ing the alarm. But these tene-
ments are veritable tinder-boxes.
Commissioner McElligott explained
that once the fire starts and the
draft goes at it, the whole place
goes up like box of matches"
But LaGuardia did not mention
what he intended to do about it.
