Eek ert, secretary of the association. Ar rangements are now being made to obtain a prominent speaker for a meeting for members of the asso ciation early in January in one of the central city auditoriums. The meetings will be open to as sociation members only, to whom a guest privilege will bo extended. It will be necessary to present mem bership cards for admission. This was emphatically emphasized by W. Lowrie Kay, chairman of the Enter tainment Committee. "Any person who wishes to attend the meetings and help boost Harrisburg must join the association previously," he said. "Any person who ever attended the Harrisburg High school for two years or more may join by filing their ap plication with the treasurer, John A. F. Hall, Union Trust building, and by paying their membership fee of one dollar a year." Harrisburg has been character ized "the eity with a conscience" by one of the alumni, who won a prize for originating such a slogan, and it is the intention of the association to make Harrisburg feel that con science. They believe that the com ing meetings will help considerably. Two additional members have been added to the Entertainment Committee. They are Howell M. Becht and Kenneth Williams.

Candles For Christmas i So many pretty legends j I associate thcmselvesf with | candles, particularly about i Christmas, that they have found decided favor for both decorations and use. Tills shop shows a most comprehen sive display of can dles, from the plain colored ones to the large catheil r a I si/. es, gorgeously decorated. I When matched with a j pain of candlesticks, these j i make a wonderful gift. Candlesticks in mahog- ' | any, bronze and pottery — j in both polychrome and | 1 plain and natural finishes. B a ybcrrjr C a nil 1e s Art & Gift Shop M. Emma Kmikcl 105 N. SECOND ST. DECEMBER 17, 1919. JUST a week before Christmas anil you haven't gotten her Cbrlatmaa gift yet! Ar.-d that is not the worst of it —you simply don't knot* what to choose. She has about everything she needs. Ah, yes, per* haps! Out does she have everything that she wants? There's such a big difference, you know. For instance, does she own a lovely neckpiece o* muff, made by I.ouis, the Ladies' Tailor? Every woman covets one for her own. So why not visit I.ouis' shop, on Third near State street, where he is disposing of the beautiful ones now or? hand at a saving of from sl< to $25, compared with prices elsewhere. I BELIEVE I can truthfully say say that in the last forty-eight hours at least twenty people have asked me where to find gifts that ore reasonably priced without being cheap. And invariably I have suggested Saltzgivcr's Art and An tique Store as the best place in which to search. Mr. Saltzgiver has placed a great number of small, framed pictures in his store, rang ing in price from $3.50 to $5.00. When l I tell you they are copies of works by Reynolds, Corot and other great masters you will realize what excellent gifts they would make. Or, if you desire something more expensive, just notice the carved Italian elqetric candlesticks in the upper window of the store. Very tall, with draft shades, they are most effective. ISN'T it strange how some tilings happen? I was visiting in Lancastei one evening last week among people who knew nothing of my interest tr.' Harrisburg shops. In the course of the conversation an attractive young girl, whom I had particularly noticed lor her taste in dress, sud denly exclaimed, "Oh, tell me, have you ever been in the Cloos Shop? - It seemed a foolish question but I merely replied in the affirmative, won dering why she had asked. She soon enlightened me by stating that the very frock which she wore had been purchased there, adding that she had never seen a more attractive display of modish gowns in any of the large* cities. HAVE you seen that ever-artistic center of attraction the Roshon display case within the past few days? No? Well, take a few minutes from the mad Christmas rush to steal a long glance at the lovely, tinted, photographs exhibited there. I'm not going to even attempt to describe them, for I can't do them justice. But I ant going to urge you to inspect them for yourself. Perhaps you will feel like the nian who, after gazir.-g so long at the lovely display that he missed a Hummelstown oar, remarked, "I've been catching cars every day of my life, but I've never before seen anything to equal these most beautiful portraitures." A Gift that y I reflects the donor's KB M Personality j _ Few things add more to —'it****' the setting of a well-appoint- | Q SO ed room than the proper ® lamp or the use of the proper lighting fixtures in the decorative scheme. In making your Christmas Shopping List add a lamp for those "newlyweds" to whom you want to give something that will reflect your own good taste. Dauphin Electrical Supplies Co. JOHN S. MUSSER, PRESIDENT 436 Market Street. f Must a Thing Be Costly f 0 Because It's Beautiful? 0 • 0 On the east side of Fifth Ave., a few 0 Q blocks south of the Metropolitan Art • a Museum is one of the most expensive " • houses in New York. Built for a United 0 " States Senator, it is an architectural mon• (j 0 strosity. Had the owner had less money ! n to spend he tvould have indulged in less 1 ornament and perhaps have achieved a J V creditable structure. Many a house cost- f 0 j 'ng a few thousand dollars is a thing of 0 Q beauty. After all it's taste: not money ! a that counts. The same applies to women's clothing. # v Merely because the dresses and suits on my 0 0 racks are so stylish does not mean they ft ft are costly. I have suits for less than sixty * • dollars which look far more expensive • V because of the taste displayed in their ® 0 design. And I've pretty frocks for as low 0 0 as $37.50, which look as though they Q ft cost very much more. a • Don't think that you have to pay large • . sums for style. It's all a matter of taste. ™ 0 And taste is inexpensive. 0 This Store Will Be Closed Every Evening 0' 1 | • Have you thought of a Gift Bond? 5 fl It's so sensible. Tlio recipient tlien selects her I • liesrt's desire and you're credited wltli a kindly sentl- Q nient plus common sense; not always synonymous. PERHAPS you have never cone sidered an electrical store as% exactly the proper place in which to do your Christmas shop* ping. But let me tell you, there if not another shop in town in which a greater number of practical giti selections is shown than at the Dam phin Electrical Supplies Co., 434 Market street. I can think of notl ins more acceptable to the average woman than an electric cleaner ot perhaps an electric washing mm chine. Then, too t another novel gift would bo a vibrator or a safe, handy, electric curling iron. And—4 I almost forgot—there are electrie lamps of all kinds to add to the list. FOR the woman who wishes ta give her husband or that grown-up boy a gift sure to please, the Army and Navy Shoe Store, Court street, ofTers many val uable suggestions. Indeed, you would be surprised to see the num erous things not to be found, as a rule, in the average shoe store. Ot course, there is a complete line of hosiery of all sorts including lisle, silk and woolen socks, which is more or less to be expected. Then, too, there are slippers galore. But in addition, a large variety of warm, heavy gloves is shown of the very best quality and cozily lined, noth ing could be more suitable for the average man. •
