Vv spend his winters in the Back
Mountain is making a big mis-
take. Without doubt we can
boast of the best fed birds in
any community. /
Our jolly Santa Claus looked
up from a child he was. talking
to last Friday night and spot-
“ted Shel Evans and his wife in
the crowd. Santa Claus yelled
to Shel and asked him what he
wanted for Christmas. Never at
a loss for a comeback, Shel
said, “I want my taxes reduc-
ed!” Now do you suppose that
Shel knows who our Santa
Claus is?
We almost had a casualty
last week at Shavertown.
lady came in the store with her
little boy and, efter a short
time, no little boy could be
found. We rushed outside and
couldn’t find him, he wasn’t in
Toyland on the second floor.
When we were about to get
Officer Updyke on the job
someone spotted junior in the
front window trying to ride the
merry-go-round that was being
used to display some dolls. Lots
of persuasion and a lollipop
finally did the trick and things
again returned to normal.
The boys and girls at The
Dallas Hardware went me to
remind you folks that they
have a swell Gift Bar set-up
also. Lovely gift items for all
occasions from 59¢ up.
Have you ever done any
bundling? If you haven't it's
not too late to start and we
have just what you need . . .
a genuine Pennsylvania Dutch
Bundling Lamp that just
throws the right amount of
light. This beautiful little lamp,
an authentic milk glass repro-
duction is not only a conversa-
tion piece but has practical
value as well. It burns kero-
sene when your electric power
fails. For only $5.98 you can
get a good start on bundling.
Look at the 4-piece Pyrex,
pink color Bowl Set at The
Dallas Hardware, it’s as pretty
a set as we've seen and should
please any housewife for Christ-
mas.
Don’t know what the gang
at the Shavertown store would
do if it weren’t for the services
of Herbie Young. He can al-
ways be depended on to arrive
at the store in time to take
orders for the ‘coffee break”.
He plans the order with Alice
Stevens across the street and
always comes back with just
what’s needed to pep up every-
one. This errand-running job
of Herbie’s is his contribution
to business in Shavertown and
should not be taken lightly.
Mr. Sowden was explaining
to a customer that the “Ginny”
doll sold for such a reasonable
price because, “it isn’t the in-
itial cost, it’s the upkeep.”
Ginny has many costumes that
can be added to her wardrobe
from time to time. She’s just
like any other doll that we
fellows get hooked up with . . .
you can marry them with only
$10.00 in your pocket but, oh
boy, the upkeep afterward.
“Ginny’s” worth it though!
To spark up your Christmas
table setting, or your mantle,
you must see the Dancing
Christmas Angels, made of
china with handpainted faces.
T5c each or a set of four for
$2.98.
We've got a good sale item:
that will make a swell Christ-
mas present. A 4-piece wooden
cannister set, hand decorated
with a sparkling rooster for
only $5.95. Also matching
snack server and bread board.
Don’t forget to mention any
little item you can think of
that would make good reading
in this column and get a free
gift certificate. Tell the folks
waiting on you at either of our
stores or call Bob Bachman at
The Dallas Post.
