Christmas Gift Idea

The weeks until Christmas are
fast slipping by. so it isn't too
early to be thinking of Christmas
gifts. Here's a suggestion for one
that would be welcome and one
that you can easilv make.
House slides made from rem
nants of corduroy and bound with
heavy satin would be welcome
addition under anyone's Christ
mas tree. Corduroy is popular
fabric this year and most every
ones scrap bag will have colorful
pieces large enough for the slides.
II you do not have corduroy,
they can be made from terry
cloth, chenille, printed cotton ma
terials; in fact, any wash fabric.
The slides will be more durable
denim or duck.
if you line them with osnaburg,
You can use an old pair of sum-
| mer slides for a pattern.
These washable slides can be
put in the washing machine with
the regular wash.

You can keep the bright colors
Of autumn leaves as decorations
in your hons all year-round.
To preserve the leaves, first
press them with a warm iron. This
preserves the color. Soak the
pressed leaves in a solution Of !
part glycerine to 9 parts water.
When the leaves are soaked thor
oughly, remove them and press
between blotters.
These leaves will stay flexible
forever. They can be glued to
branches at each point where one
has been removed.

Special Upturn Periods.
Both Mr.. Reilly and Mr.. Dulcan
foreSaw an increase in business
here in the. first six months of
next year, with a leveling of dur
ing the second half. Mr.. Gold
smith said he thought the amount
OF business here in the first half
would be about the same as that
this year but that it will rise
moderately in the last six months.
"Our city Is the hub of the
universe" Mr.. Reilly said. "This
has been brought about through
no ingenuity on our part, but be-
cause Of American leadership in
world affairs. The future of |
Washington can't miss"
Mr.. Reilly pointed out the
strength Of any community is In
its backlog Of buying power and
produced the following figures:
!. District citizens own United
States Savings Bonds totaling
$500. 900, 900.
2. District bank deposits as of
November 1, 1949. amounted to
$1,005, 1853, ,220.
Other Investments.
3. The public here has about
$500, 100000 invested In building
and loan associations.
4. Credit unions have over So
000, 900 on deposit with them.
These figures. Mr.. Reilly added,
are limited to the District and do |
not include the spendable income

Mr.. Dulcan, in predicting better
business for the coming year,
added the best business will come
to those who are worthy of it.

Many historians feel that syp-
hills caused a great change in the
policies of several of the impor-
tant countries of the world.
Henry VIII of England was e
verely syphilitic and the fact that
he infected his first wife Gather
inc, is what caused her to be
unable to produce an heir for the
throne. Their four children were
born dead. This started his trou-
BILE with the Papacy and began
his succession of wives.
1t is also believed that several
of the greatest tyrants of Europe
came to the thrones Of their coun-
tries because of a series Of deaths
in the royal families due to syp-
hills. Many of the rulers of the
time conducted their affairs while
suffering seriously from mental
disorders caused by syphilis.

France, and Germany, and by 1905
it was reported in China and the
Far East.
The disease in those days was
much more severe than it is
known to be today. This may be
due to the fact that it was a COM
paratively new infection and
struck with greater force.
The nations Of Europe went to
great lengths to make sure that
the disease would not be con-
sidered original with them. Each
called it by another name. 1t was
the French Disease" the Span
ish Disease" the italian Dis
ease" and so forth. With the
fact that many millions of Ameri-
cans have either syphilis or gon-
orrhea, it might well be called the
american Disease"
