Merry Christmas to all

There's no room this day
for SorroW,

Santa Claus brought you al
most everything you wanted
everything would take the fun
out of life), and that happiness
is yours this day and many
more to come.
I don't know about the local
barber shop scenes, but cer-
tainly the feminine side of
every family was getting dolled
up on Wednesday for this i'm
portant day. Naturally they
wanted to look their best when
their husbands produced furs
or jewels. In the space of an
hour and a half in one beauty
shop salon, the following
turned up to get slicked up:
Mrs. George Humphrey, wife
of the Secretary of the Treas
ury, who's now having a big
family reunion with husband,
children and flocks of grand
children in Cleveland, Ohio. -.
Mrs. Sinclair Weeks, wife Of
the Secretary of Commerce,
just before taking off for her
home town of Nashville.
Anne van Roijen, wife of
the Netherlands Ambassador,
getting ready for Christmas
with her family at their lovely
place in Warrenton. Luvie

sented her daughter, Miss Jane
Blanche Sawyer; DR.. and Mrs.
Wallace Mason Yater presented

Mrs. Elizabeth Greenlees Meloy.
The three girls and their
mothers formed the receiving
line at the festive party, which
was for members of the younger
set only.
The club sparkled brightly with
Christmas decorations, and a
further colorful note was added
by Sydney's Orchestra, conducted
by Johnny Shaw, who were re-
splendent in new red coats.
Wears Blue
Miss Sawyer, who is tall with
blue eyes and light brown hair,
wore a bouffant gown of azure
blue tissue silk and carried a
Colonial bouquet of garnet roses
and white carnations tied with
white ribbon. Her mothers gown
was of marine blue nylon lace,
set off by a corsage of pink ca
mellias.
The debutante is the daugh-
ter Of the late DR.. Sawyer and
the granddaughter of Mrs. Leroy
Lee Sawyer and the late DR.. L.
L. Sawyer of Great Bridge, Va,
and of Mrs. Otis Wingo and the
late Mr.. Wingo of Arkansas.
Miss Sawyer is a graduate of
Holton-Arms School and is

a Colonial bouquet. Mrs. Yater's
short evening dress was bur-

gardeniaS with it.

Friends School, Miss Yater is
now a freshman at Vassar Col
lege. Her chief interests are
dramaticS, swimming and tennis,
and she hopes to make a career
in the field of English and dra-
maticS.
Blue-eyed Miss Meloy's red
hair looked lovely against her
gown of ice green shantung taf-
feta, with which she carried an
old fashioned bouquet of white
carnations and yellow roses, tied
with a yellow ribbon. The debu-
tante'S green frock harmonized
beautifully with her mothers
aquamarine silk taffeta gown.
Mrs. Meloy also wore a spray of
yellow orchids.
The debutante graduated last
June from National Cathedral
School for Girls, and taught last
summer at the Beauvoir School
summer day camp. She now is a
freshman at Pine Manor Junior

many generations. The debu-
tante was presented to her
mothers friends last summer in
the garden of their Wesley
Heights home.

UNDER GROUND LAKE MAY ALLEVIATE WATER
 s0rrsk LrV ANCHORAGE

Deep underground lake" water, underlying the Anchorage area is of the proper temperature for use in cooling processes, ac- cording to a release from the Washington office of the U. s Geological Survey.
 The 700 foot deep million gal lon a day wells were drilled last summer under Survey direction. One Washington official com mented that the water, ranging in temperatures from 36 to .a8 degrees Fahrenheit, could be used in cooling processes, and also IS warm enough to be considered source of heat in subfreezing temperatures where flowing water is needed.
 Geological officials say that test drilling this summer should enable firm conclusions to be drawn regarding availability of ground water in that district.

Survey Shows Bread Advance Less

While the costs of ingredients and labor have more than doubled in the past l2 years, bread prices have been held down-on d per centage basis-actually less than the advances in the costs of pro- duction, recent survey shows.
 Discussing the advance in gen eral food prices at a meeting of bakery engineers, E. E. Kelley, Jr., President of the American Bakers Association, pointed out that whereas bread prices have

"lt is a sound, delicious, whole some food: The old myth that bread is fattening has been ex- ploded; it can and should be wisely included in a reducing diet. It is one of the most wonderful buys fer the food value received. "it is a fine source of cereal proteins whose value is stepped up by the bakers increasing use of milk solids. Enriched and whole-grain breads do so much toward insuring adequate amounts of B vitamins and iron in the diet. It is filing and satisfying and such a good source of the energy We all-growing children espe- cially-nccd."

 He reported survey of news paper advertisements in 194l and in l953 which showed bread sell ing at He in l94l, and at l9c in 1853; milk was advertised at 8bc per quart compared with more than 20c in 1853; sugar was 4.Gc per pound, against 10.lc this year; family flour was advertised at 3oc per pound in l94l, currently at 9.4c per pound.
 And of great significance, he said, "is the fact that in this l2 year period, only two products have been improved from a nu- tritional standpoint - bread and enriched four. The enrichment program started in l941, B vita.

 Further testimony to the inn portance of bread in the diet came from another source recently. A leading national magazine devoted IA pages to variety of uses for bread, closing the section with statements on breads virtues.
