I've discovered that the easiest
way to be sure of pleasing friends
ct Christmas is to give them the
gifts you'd like most to receive your
self. This rule has worked beautl-
fully for me for many years - and
even worked in reverse this year.
You see, my birthday is Just few
weeks before Christmas-and when
my husband, Jim, found that l had
bought several large mantel mirrors
70 give to my friends for Christmas, :
he decided that a mirror was just
about the best birthday gift ne could
give me.
And how right he was! Pm simply
delighted with my new plate glass
mirror - It makes my entire living
room seem larger - and is going 20
De such a decorative background for

.eally thrilled TO have il before
Christmas.
I'm certainly glad, too, that |
showed my gift mirrors to Jim, and
explained that l chose Pittsburgh
Plate Glass mirrors because | knew
they were the finest made. Good
quality is SO inlpor ant, you know =
and they Will De just as clear and
attractive ten years from now I'M
sure my friends viii be as deig he'd
