THE JOY OF GIVING!
The good book says: "'Tis more blessed to give than to receive." But the degree of satisfaction received
from giving-is enhanced or lessened by the appropriateness of the gift. Make your Christmas presents fit the
occasion. Note the suggestions below. Every article listed there is particularly adapted to the Yuletide season.
The prices are low enough to fit the most modest purse.
