YES. WE'VE been packing pack
eges FOR the men in service all
year but now comes the time
when we fit gifts into the most
important box Of the year :. the
Christmas one
Let's start with the mailing
carton. If you don't have a firm
cardboard carton, you can pur-
chase dandy ones i'm varying sizes
i'm local department stores. They
range in price from 10 cents TO
around 30 cents.
Of course you'll pat in several
packages or carton or two of
cigarets. possibly can OF peanuts
and hard candy. some packaged
mints, gum and perhaps shaving
cream and soap.

practical for service men gifts.

papers and plenty of attractive
seals and stickers and save
