ELECTRIC RAZOR.

ffIOUk 44I0s 81 " <As sssstkSHsI
Some one recently asked for ad-
vice concerning whether to buy q
single or double headed electric ra-
zor for her husband. Most Of the
men know who have tried electric
razors and did not like them had
double -headed razors. My husband,
who has rather heavy beard,
simply cannot use double-headed
electric razor, but is very enthusi-
astic about his single-headed one.
I think q lot depends upon what
kind Of beard the man has. II
he should shave twice day, then
I believe a single head would be
more satisfactory; II he could go
two days without shaving, then
some one else will have to give the
advice. II he has never used an
electric razor 1t will take him at
least q week to get used to one
and even then he may not like it.
It is amazing how many used razors
are advertised each. week, which
seems to indicate that many men
do not like electric raZors. My huS-
bands razor Is one Of his priced pos
sessions.
WORDS OF WISDOM.
from Mrs. L. B., Arltngton.)
We hear much about the house.
wife's responsibility in helping force
down the unreasonably high prices,
but I wonder If we realize we can
REALLY do just that. You and I
and women all over America are
said to spend IS per cent Of the Ma
tion's income. Are we going to let
that money be wasted on So cotton
aprons and $25 cotton dresses and
90-cent bacon? How we spend or in
vest our money shifts prices upward
or downward.
During the war we patriotically
invested in War Bonds and didn't
buy things that weren't necessary.
Can't we continue that habit until
scarce goods can be manufactured
and distributed in quantity? Most
housewives are advertising conscious
for we watch ads of sales, weekly
groceries, ETC., so I'm sure most OF
us have noticed that almost every
day our local newspapers and retail
ers. urge us to invest in United States
Savings Bonds formerly War
Bonds. Why do they do this when
they have merchandise to sell? Be-
cause they know the THRIFTY in
dividual is the best and most de-
pendable shopper in the long run
and people who have savings are
stable and will make America eco
nomically secure.
What I want to say Is this: Christ
mas is the season most people spend
money foolishly. This year many OF
us have loved ones with us who have
not been home for several Christ
masses. Extravagant gifts are super
huous to our happiness. Personally
our family has decided to find ouI
Christmas joy in a good old-fash-
ioned Christmas of good will and
love. And under our Christmas tree
will be few minor gifts, plus some
thrifty United States Savings Bonds
tied with extravagantly large and
gay red ribbons!
And, when prices Of real estate
and household goods and clothing
return to a sensible level, we'n have
these bonds, together with those we
started buying in 1941, maturing
every month and we'll spend that
money when we can get a dollars
value for the dollar spent. At first
it took all my willpower not to
weaken and purchase pretty dresses
ETC., but each time I wanted to be
extravagant I forced myself to 60
home and think over the purchase.
In most instances, realized didn't
honeStly need the item.

SHAKESPEARES GARDEN.

(Fronl r. w. H., Washington.)
To the reader of the Clearing
House about Shakespeare's Garden:
I wish to tell her that there is a
Shakespeare Garden in Golden
Gate Park, San Francisco, where
every flower and herb that was
growing In Shakespeare's time is
planted. It is a very lovely spot
with a hedge around it and many
paths and a bust of Shakespeare
facing the garden.

CHRISTMAS PoEMp

(Fron, Miss v. L. M, Arlington
There is a Christmas poem I
would like. I don't know the author.
The general theme is that I will
do my shopping early this year,
so in the hustle and hustle of last
minute preparations I will not lose
the true meaning of Christmas.

I am a visitor in your city and
have enjoyed the RCH SO much for
two months I wonder. how I am
going to get along without it when
I leave! / want to add my thanks
for the many good recipes and other
interesting and helpful items.
My special thanks go to the one
sending in the recipe for Batter
Bread, called Spoon Bread where I
come from. 1t is simple, delicious
and I advise all the readers to try
it. I have wanted this recipe for
such long time and did not know
where to get 1t. Also I want to
thank the ladies for the Date
Cake recipes.
I like the Mystery Chefs cook
book and wonder if any one can
tell me what happened to the
Mystery Chef. Why doesn't he
broadcast any more or does the
program come over another station
or at different time? I can't find
any one who knows.

Cleveland Teams to open 1916
Basketball Season
BY Henry SCHNEIDER, President T. S. J. A.

The lo46-47 T. S. J. A. Bas-
ketball Lcague@will swing into
action on Saturday, November
10th. This is the night the Lea
gue officially opens it's campaign
for the first time since spring of
1912. Since that time, only car
nivals were played due to the
circumstances confronting the
Association by the war.
The two Cleveland teams. East
and West will play their game,
originally scheduled at Cleve-
land East on Saturday, Novem-
Der 10th. at Cleveland West on
Saturday, November 9th. A large
Saxon wedding at East on the
night of the 10th caused East to
request the change.
The game between East and
West will be played at the West
Side Y. NJ. c. A. on West Sind
and Franklin Ave-, the same gym
that Cleveland West has used
tor many years gone by. Came
time will be 800 p. m.
This game will be an interest
ing ONE to witness. The relative
strength of either team is not
known, but when these two clubs
get together there is always a
good game played. The rivalry
between East and West is very
strong when it comes to athletic
competition,bu friendship reigns
when the game is over. Interfer-
ence by outsiders has caused quite
some rumors to circulate over
the actions of the two clubs, but
the members themselves have Of
ten gotten together and had some
good laughs over the manner in
which various individuals have
tried to cause a rift between the
two clubs.
AS has been the custom pre-
ceeding the opening games of the
season. the Association officers
make the request of all teams
entered in the league to pay honor
and tribute to the departed MEM
bers Of the T. S. ]. A. by observ-
ing the one minute of silence

Der those boys who played with
us just a few years ago and then

cause of their great sacrifice we
are again able to play basketball
once again.
The problem that has con-
fronted the League in past years
will once more be met with this
season. That is the question OF
entertainment and food follow
ing the games. All clubs are urg-
emily requested to give this mat

The Chicago Committee for

power to lessen the sufferings Of
our Brethren in Europa. The mi

it would be un-pardonable fol
any one to become indifferent. We
wish, that you too, the younger
generation of Saxon descent,
could truly synphasize with our
suffering people who are unfed--
unclothed and many o. them
homeless. This would help us
greatly to extend our Relief Ef-
forts. During the past weeks we
sent over 500 pounds OF cloth
ing and shoes in II pound parcels
especially to the refugee SaXons
in Austria. Such a program can
not continue without financial
support. Yet, how can we feel at
ease, when due to our indifier.
ence a great number of our re.
latives abroad will be cold and
hungry during the coming win,
