Thinking Ahead 
D O you dread just a bit, as you 
look ahead, the task of ‘‘getting 
straightened up” after Christmas? 
Did much of the regular housework 
have to be sidetracked at last year’s 
holiday time? Did you find that the 
scramble to finish certain belated gifts 
for friends prevented going with the 
children on Christmas eve to hear them 
in the Sunday School program? Did 
you secretely and half-guiltily breathe 
a sigh of relief when Christmas was 
over, though of course you had a 
virtuous feeling of having strenously 
endeavored to make others happy? 
If not, this article is not for you. 
If you did, you may be interested in 
some of the subjoined suggestions. 
First of all, if Christmas is a time 
for making others happy, is it not just 
as much a time not to make others 
A NEW DRESS FOR APPROACHING 
HOLIDAYS 
E VEN the dress

side pleats can be

unhappy? Is it not “robbing Peter 
to pay Paul” when the attempt to 
reach a large circle of friends with 
home-made gifts disarranges the affairs 
of the entire family? 
If we might keep before us the 
thought that Christmas should be a 
time of good cheer, of good will, of 
happiness for all, but particularly for 
the children, it would go far to cor¬ 
rect many abuses of the seasop. 
Sometimes we housewives map out 
too big a program and then either get 
all tired out in the Christmas rush 
or else get “stuck” in the schedule; 
sometimes we fail because we have no 
program at all. 
Physical Ills Instead of Renewed 
Power 
Physicians say that the number of 
their calls is always increased at holi¬ 
day^ time, due very largely to over¬ 
exertion and over-indulgence on the 
part of their patients. It need not be 
so if more of the energy spent in pre¬ 
paring Christmas goodies that harm 
the physical life were devoted to bring¬ 
ing to the mental and spiritual life 
of the family the good and beautiful 
things of Christmas found in story and 
song and drama. 
In too many households the Christ¬ 
mas sun sets on a weary mother, a 
harried father and a group of unhappy 
children dissatisfied with the costly 
gifts they have received. It would not be 
so if more care were taken to teach 
lessons of giving rather than of re¬ 
ceiving—to make Christmas a time of 
charity and good will rather than of 
covetousness and selfish desires. 
The woman who calls her family into 
council early before Christmas and 
will find this 
great Catalog of 
The Charles 
William Stores a 
veritable holiday- 
land, brimful of thousands of 
practical and useful gift sug¬ 
gestions for every member of 
your family and for every one

Useful gifts are here in pro¬ 
fusion—clothing, millinery, 
footwear, dry goods, work 
clothing, automobile accesso¬ 
ries—everything in fact. But 
luxuries and novelties are 
here, too—for on the jewelry, 
toy and novelty pages,, selec¬ 
tions can be made that will 
please the most critical.
