 Gives Advice on Cards
 Chase wrote the standard text book about the industry-"Fhe Romance of Greeting Cards"-3O years ago. So much has happened since then that he has just re- written the whole thing.
 He says the greeting card is Americas gift to the world-real- ly an American institution.
 Do you know one of the best gestures you can make when you send a card? Chase says it's to make the recipient feel comp.i mented. Of course, he points out the compliment-whether outright or implied-shouldn't be in con flict with the sentiment which iS appropriate to the occasion.

Hints In Buying Christmas Cards
By John B. Knox

The dean of Americas greeting card industry has some hints for you about buying cards-a Christ mas card, for instance.
 Remember, says Ernest Dudley Chase, of Dedham, aMss., that your choice of a single card for Christmas, or even box of cards, may not provide a message appro- priate for everyone on your list. Try to send a card personally suited to the friends who will re- ceive it. You wouldn't for example, suggest merry holiday for some one just bereayed.
 Perhaps nobody else knows as much about greeting cards and the industry, as Chase who is in- credibly brisk and lively at 7a. Al. though it's about half century since he fashioned for his own use, his first Christmas card, he's still human dynamo.
 His creative work is done in the early part of the day. He's at his
Kodiak mirror., 1956-12-08

Christmas folder-a simple spray of holly and Christmas wish about midway in President Theo- dore Roosevelt's first administra- ton. A paper salesman turned Chase toward Christmas cards as a business. In his early years of business for himself carGs were brought out in small editions and were farmed out for hand-coloring at home.
 Verse Is Important
 But the biggest problem then, as now, was good verses.
