Only one thing I can foretell, and that’s what you'll be buying when the new year does finally roll around, so let’s go shopping: £.-eo* Noah had only a flood to con- tend with, but mammas go on contending and contending when there are babies in the house. Baby couldn’t speak for himself at Christmas, or before, or for some time fo come, so now * Jaxon will socak for him and tell Mamma ai! about the diapers at Ideal Togs, and the floods she can contend with so easily from now on, There are Curity, Chix and Snug Safe in gauze diapers, and the ever popular Birdseye in the 27 x 27 inch size at $2.25 per dozen.

Add nut meats if desired. This will make two to four servings depending on how you count your calories or how you like your cream. tite ad I’ve seen quite a few parades in my day, and ‘e's nothing 1 enjoy more, except maybe th kind of parade going on over Gulfstream these days. It’s a parade of cheeses from all over the world, In fact, it’s as if all the cheese making countries got together and tried to outdo each other. 7 re two kinds of cheeses from the Argentine, four from Waly, four fom Switzerland, and nine from the United States, many from Wisconsin [‘ll bet.

I was talking to Barbara and she said that she was going to be wearing a beautiful red nylon dress, and when I saw her her hair looked like it would be some- thing beautiful with curls and all. Barbara was going to be an angel in the Christmas program but her teacher had the mumps so they couldn’t put the play on. Seems as though ‘Santa could have done better by the teacher than that, or else teacher must have been pretty bad. I wouldn’t want to spend Christmas with my neck all swelled up, would you? xk & A beautiful tree with a ridicu- fous e, “The Fiddle Leaf Fig’ sitting over at Baldwin's Nursery. I’ve also heard a vici- ous rumor that it grows real figs when it gets to be a big tree. Well, Baldwin's have quite a few of these nice trees, only they are in the small stage now in crocks, and make nice large house plants with big shiny leaves . . . fiddle shaped le h is probably why they called that. Christmas is o' it’s spring plantin’ almanac may not agree, Baldwin‘s. sand Jaxon too, says sol xe k Do you “sit out” your skirts after a few wearings? Does the skirt of last season’s suit look baggy and out of shape, while the jacket seems to be as good as new? There’s a cure for “‘sat-out” skirts, or better still, you can'take preventative measure so the fabric will never be stretched out of shape even though it’s sat on for hours at a time. The best custom tailors and dressmakers control the skirt and its line with an inside shell (a brief lining) of unstretchable fab- ric, It's not hard to make such a lining. The right time to do it when you make the garment or just after you buy it. If the skirt back is cut in one or two pieces, do line it. Although a tree or four gore skirt back will hold its shape longer, a lining will insure it’s shape. Dresses too will keep a fresher look for a longer with this skirt control from made in a soft fabric that tends to give or stretch after wearing. But whatever the skirt design, line it and be on the safe and trim side. x ek Do you have any old left over Christmas money? No?
