students turned out the toys in
assembly-line fashion. Working at
the Kappa Sigma chapter house,
students divided into crews
around long tables. One crew

others added a fresh coat of paint

Although Brunhilda believes
Santa of North Pole fame is
a myth and wishes her com
ing bluebooks were too, she
has to face the proverbial
facts. She has to take her
bluebooks and has to play
Santa Clause. There are
those obligations that come
before us and st a r , e us
straight in the cotton pick'en
face.. Your roommate, or
friend, or some female, has
slyly announced, in plenty
of time for you to act, that
she has obtained for you a
Christmas present.
Don't panic group or wrap
your cloak about you and
steal off into the night. Mere
ly trundle off to Simon's and
purchase a GIFT CERTIFI
CATE. What could be easier?
(Especially for those hard-to
please people.) "Let 'em
chose for themselves." •

with Gabbi
Merry Christmas, crew it's
time, not jus
tree - trimming, tinsel-tossing
time, not just back at the
ranch, but everywhere! Got
my knee sox darned, ' ready
to go, cornered the market on
Angostura and did all my.
holiday shopping at Wana—
I mean ETHEL'S, of course!
Noses pressed against the
window ...
These days are passe' for Gab
bi during Christmas—am now
on the inside looking out (just
love my sawdust bed and
daily bone) and it's more fun
than pillow fights—seeing all
that beautiful crystal in dazz
ling ruby and green; and
gleaming brass in any shape
—candlesticks to candy dish
es. These are the gifts that
deserve many kisses on the
forehead from the people who
appreciate the unusual and
the beautiful!
Clever and cute cards .
that should be dealt with in
the best of humor for any oc
casion. Even Scrooge would
spare a smile at first sight of
these zany, abstract, modern
mood creations delightful
and daring—you'll buy sev
eral saying, "I just must send
this to someone, it's too great
to pass up!"
Sugar 'n Spice
not only compose little girls
(well, we were once) but some
tangy dishes and seasonings
that will make any meal even
more taste-tempting! Pre
pared salad dressing and wine
vinegar that look good enough
to drink. And if you've just
been drinking tea when you're
sick in bed—you'll be getting
sick more often once you sam
ple the delicious tea you can
buy at ETHEL'S—spiked with
spice and color—even better
than Chinese egg slop soup!
That's it gang, see you in
'ss—meanwhile have a voci
ferous vacation and Merry
Christmas from ETHEL'S and
me, too!
