STOCKINGSALMOST FULFOR TUESDA

Well, it's almost over!Except for the frantic last-minute efforts of

those harried souls whose talent for prOcras-tination overpowers their good intentions, theChristmas shopping spree is ended.

Although still far from pre.war selectionin variety and quality, stocks of Christmasgifts were sufficiently plentiful this Yuletide toallow full exercise of the gift-giving spiritwhich has been somewhat cramped duringthe past few years. People bought freely, thestorekeepers say, many indulging in a realfling after slipping their war hobbles,

The Triangle camera took a trip throughthe stores last Saturday and here were some ofthe people on whom it focussed:

1. Mr. and Mrs. Lionel Charron take theiryoung Therese on a shopping tour. Lionelworks in the Yard at the Copper Refinery.

2. Ralph Brown, Frood-Stobie Open Pittime office, closes his eyes and awaits divineguidance in the china department. It's hisfirst Christmas as a married man, and it be-hooves him to combine utility with beauty inhis gift shopping. This, he discovers, is easiersaid that did.

3. Frank Gillies, of the Mine EngineeringDept. at Copper Cliff, talks over the respectivemerits of items in the toy department withh5 4-year-old daughter Joey, who is takingthis Christmas shopping business very seriouslyindeed.

4. \ lineup of shoppers pondering over giftsuggestions in on of Sudbury's jewelry shops.

5. Lee Thornton, bright little diughter ofDr. and Mrs. Bill Thornton of Copper Cliff,mails her helpful hints for Santa Claus. Heryoung brother Ricky seems vastly amused atth exhibition of childish faith. Don't betoo worldly about this Christmas stuff, Rickyold boy; its the greatest thing that was everinvented.

6. Lois Smith, INCO employement centre,and Joyce Fortier Copper Refinery give thetie counter the once-over. Choosing a tie,they opine is a knotty problem.

7. Gifts or their home were on the shop.ping list o Mr. and Mrs. Jack Donnelly ofGarson. Looks like Jack is doomed tosession of hanging wl paper.

From the Bard of the Tailing Lne

Christmas comes but once a year,Bringing thoughts of hope and cheer.Then, Santa brings his bag of toys,For all the little girls and boys.The tiny tot puts up a prayer,That he may have a teddy bear,And most all girls, both big and small,Express their wish to get a doll,While boys look forward with delight,For boxing gloves to learn to fight.May Christmas bring to each and all,The rich, the poor, the greats the small,The best of every kind of cheer,With n'er a thought that's dark

drearAnd may your joys along life's way,Increase in fullness, day by day.Now let me wish you all success,Your life be filled with happiness.To you and all that you h0ld dear,Merry Christmas and a Glad New Year.
