Here is a new rack for holding

rims and handles and because it Is
made of plastic, it should be gentle
to the glaze. 1t holds each cup in
a firm grip, but still 1t is easy to
insert and remove the cups by
slipping them around the curved
clip. The racks can be easily in

horizontal or at any preferred angle.
You'll find the cups are held snugly

doors, and you'll also ind there will
be less chipping or breakage, the

Nostalgia has. in large part, been
the dish served to the public by
record companies this year. The
new releases they have offered in
this year of the ban" have been
matched by reissues Of old favorites
and the grouping and regrouping OF
old tunes into albums. Since an
aura of nostalgia is inherent in
many q Christmas gift, the "oldies"
are q gift possibility that will make
the bringing back of memorable
moments complete.
You might consider the Songs
Of Our Times" series, that offers an
album to cover each year from 1917
to l943. Whether they played
Sweet Sue" when your friends were
counting or Deep Purple" there is
an album that should say something
special to them.
II Can Hear It Now" is rooted In
nostalgia and history. Commentator
Edward r. Murrow Is the narrator
and the great, comic and tragic fig
ures and events of the 1882 to 1945
era are the cast of the piece.
Whether you're buying q gift for
small Johnny or Uncle John, this
selection should please.
There is pair Of two albums, too,
that contain the speeches of Frank
lin d. Roosevelt, titled Rendezvous
With Destiny"
OF course, the best buy record
wise Of the year is the long playing
machine, with records designed for
it. Over $50 of these nonbreakable
records that play for As minutes and
offer complete operas and sympho-
nies on a single record are now
available. At least one other firm
will make records that can be played
on this machine after January /.
There is quite a rich and varied
supply Of folk tunes-many SO
charming and witty and earthly they
are bound to make converts Of some
who have resisted the general en-
thusiasm for them. With 30 Stat
ford Sings American Folk Songs" a
departure from the traditional guitar
accompaniment occurs, and Paul
Weston conducts an orchestra COM
posed of instruments used in a
symphony group. The effect is a
pleasant one.
In 1.-THE Folk Songs of New Eng
land" tenor Earl Rogers sings ef-
fectively a group of tunes, including
| the eerie woman All Skin and
Bones" "Our Good Man" and
"Canaday."
An English album of folk tunes,
arranged by Benjamin Britten,
is fine indeed. Tenor Peter Pears
sings the tunes and the quality
Of the records is admirable. Actu-
ally, the title, English and French

PLEA FOR PETS.

(From Mrs. H. S. M, Falls Church,
This Is an appeal to all parents
and any others who are contemplat-
ing giving a puppy or kitten as q
Christmas present. Many people
believe that it is a great kindness to
give a young pet to children at
Christmas, and have the little
creature under the Christmas tree
on Christmas morning, along with
all the other Christmas gifts. This
is in reality q great mistake; not
only is it very hard on the new pet,
it Is just another added burden to
the busy Mother on Christmas day.
If persons will get the new pet
anytime from now up to week
BEFORE Christmas, the troubles
and work In connection with a
young pet will be greatly reduced
and also the chances of the survival
of the pet will be greatly increased.
Any young puppy or kitten up to
the age of three months requires
three meals q day. Puppies up to
three months require four meals per
day. Sometimes it takes young
creatures a week to get adjusted to
new food and surroundings. Even
when the new pet Is introduced
into q new home under normal con-
ditions, digestive upsets follow and
it takes a little time to get these
Strengthened out.
It is understandable therefore,
that If new pet is thrust into q
new home on Christmas day it will
not only be subjected to great deal
of excitement but also the feeding,
in all probability will be upset.
Many Of these little live Christmas
presents do not survive very long
after Christmas.
Parents and other persons who
present a pet for Christmas do not
mean to be cruel and they would
not do anything to hurt an animal,
but they just don't think about the
different reasons for not giving a
pet on Christmas.
OF course, there Is the Santa Claus
angle. This is very important, and
no one would want to distract from
any connection that Santa might
have in the arrival Of the new pet.
However, 1t DOES work, II 1t is ex-
planned to the children that Santa
would really appreciate 1t II he
could have one Of his helpers leave
the puppy or kitten sometime ahead
of Christmas. 1t may also be ex-
planned that some little toy may be
purchased for the new puppy, and,
as 1t will be q member of the family
by the time Christmas day arrives,
much better time will be had by
all, especially the new pet.
And on Christmas day, do not let
the new pet stay around where 1t
will be too excited. See to it that
the young creature is put in it's box
and then placed somewhere it will
be quiet and warm. Both you and
the new pet will be glad you did this
little thing. Don't forget to feed 1t
in the excitement Of the day, and
DON'T try to do it kindness by
feeding it anything that isn't on its
regular diet.
The Animal Welfare Leaane Of
Arlington has q little story which
may be read to children illustrating
the facts laid out In this letter. A
COPY of this story will be sent most
cheerfully free of cost to any one
who would care to have copy. Just
