SHOP AT HOME
With the approach of Christ
mas, the retail “buying sea
son” is in full swing. At this
time of the year, some folks
tend to forget about the “store
on the corner” when they un
dertake their Christmas shop
ping.
Local stores carry a wide
variety of items, at competi
tive prices. Many items found
in out-of-town stores may be
located here at home, often
for less.
We never forget the mer
chants “on the corner” when
a charity drive is in progress
so this year let’s remember
them when we do our seasonal
shopping. Besides, money spent
at home stays at home—where
it does the most good.

“I was supposbed to have met
my husband here two hours ago,”
the pretty young matron confided
to a posser-by. ‘‘Have you seen
him ?”
“Possibly. Anything distinctive
about him?”
“Yes, I imagine he’s purple by
this time.”
Not a Penny Lost...
(1934-1962)
Since 1934, when Congress established the
Fedral Savings and Loan Insurance Corpora
tion, no one has ever lost a penny in an Insured
Savings Account at any of America's FSLIC—
insured Savings and Loan associations—like
ours.

Christmas:
BY ONA F. LATHROP
-.Mr
“I decided to have me a
day,” mom said.
“You kids pick up your toys and
make a path to the breakfast
table,” she yelled, “and quit
shrieking that siren We all have
headaches this morning.”
We were all at the table at last,
though nobody wanted any break
fast—we’d eaten too much turkey
yesterday, besides all the Christ
mas candy and stuff.
Getting Ready
Mom said, “Now if all will
pile what they want exchanged on
the hall table, I’ll make my usual
pilgrimage to town with it.”
Big Pile
When Mom came down dressed
to go, she hit the ceiling because
that’s how high the stack of ex
change stuff was on the hall table.
“I declare—another year I’m
going to do something about
Christmas,” she declared. Yet we
didn’t pay much attention for she
says that every year. But she laid
;he law down before she left, “You
kids take some of your junk to the
basement and stop squirting that
fire-hose and car-washing thing
on my carpeting. I swear I think
I’ll just never come back—this
house is such a shambles!”
Still we didn’t think she meant
it until lunch time came and she
didn’t show up. Gram fixed us
some cold turkey sandwiches and
looked worried, but we went out
to play with our new sleds and
didn’t think any more about it till
supper time when we came in.
“Where’s Mom?” we shouted.
Gram was pacing the floor.
“That’s what I’d like to know.”
And when Pop and Polly came in,
it was the same thing.
“You mean she hasn’t come
home from town all day?” Pop
bellowed. And Toddy began to
whimper. It was getting dark out
side and she’s never stayed away
this late before.
“Maybe there’s been an ac
cident,” Polly hinted. If SHE was
worried about anything but that
sappy boyfriend of hers, it must
be bad!
Return
“You kids clean up this house—
anything may happen,” Polly or
dered. Supper was over and Gram
was rattling the dishes in the
kitchen when the taxi drew up.
Mom stepped out in a brand new
hat and coat and came sauntering
in—not a package in her hands!
“What happened to you?
Where’s our stuff?” we all yelled.
Mom just smiled like a sphinx.
She looked real different some
how.
“I turned everything in and
they’ll deliver them tomorrow. I
just decided to have me a day—
a Christmas present to myself,
you might say. I’ve let myself go
all fall getting ready for Christ
mas for everybody else, so I had
a facial and a shampoo and the
works. I got a new dress and hat
instead of that expensive lounging
set Dad gave me—I don’t lounge,
and I hope you don’t mind. Dave
And I went to lunch and a movie
and I’ve had a wonderful day I
hope you have ’’
Toddy went and put an arm
around her then. “I’m gir^ri >ou
had yourself a nice Christmas the
clay after. Mommy.” he said. And
then .we all laughed like old times
again.
With history piling up so fast,
any day now seems to be the first
annivarsary of something awful.
Our days are like identical suit
cases—all the same size, but some
people can pack more into them
than others.
t’T'WAS the day after Christmas
and all through the house—it
was Bedlam. Mom had to thread
her way through a maze of elec
tric trains, rockets and space
ships on the living-room floor to
get to the kitchen, and she was
mumbling out there about ‘this
new toaster that doesn’t work as
well as the old one.’ Pop was
grumbling about which one of
those atrocious ties he’d have to
wear to the office, and my big
sister Polly was yelling, “You’ll
just have to take it back,
Mother-r-r. It doesn’t fit at all!”
Toddy and I had got up early
to play with our new stuff and
Todd had already broken three
plastic car-couplers trying to
hitch them onto his new fire-truck,
and I had run down !he batteries
in my new speed-boat.
“Mom, would you get me some
batteries when you go to town
this morning?” I coaxed, and she
nearly threw the toast at me.
