\ PAGE 5 SUPPLEMENT TO McHENRY PLAINDEALER, - FRIDAY, JUNE 7. 1974 BEGINNER, QR EXPERT? sew a unique gift for Dad -- it's easy! Instead of giving Dad the same old box of cigars or bottle of after-shaving lotion for Father's Day this year, why don't you put some spe­ cial feeling into the day by sewing a gift. YouH enjoy selecting the right pattern and fabric -- and Dad will enjoy receiv­ ing his custom-made present. Whether you are a begin­ ner or an expert, there are many types of fashion and accessory patterns available to fit your skills. A simple wrap-style kimono robe or pair of pull-on swim trunks are quick and easy to sew for any novice. If you're a more experienced sewer, try a tailored blazer or shirt- jacket. Whatever you sew, make the construction a little eas­ ier with sewing aids now available. For example: a "Scotch" Stick-on Ruler. This yellow polyester ruler at­ taches to any smooth, clean surface as a handy measure­ ment guide. If you're mak­ ing belts, belt loops or string ties, use "Scotch" Tubing Tape for quick, effortless construction. It saves time by turning bias tubing right- side-out in an instant. Be a little creative this year when Father's Day ar­ rives. Sew up a unique gift for Dad -- and youll discov­ er that half the fun of giving the present is in the sewing! Gift Ideas: A gift for Dad can really be a gift for the whole family. For example, the recrea­ tion room presents many ideas. One premise is that a fam­ ily room should have a bar -- and if it doesn't, a bar is an ideal gift. The portable refrigerator is a versatile gift that deserves your consider­ ation. This appliance is not only a great family room ac­ cessory, it is also a useful item for Dad to take on camping trips. Two other items to please Father are billiard and pool tables. Gifts for Dad, sure, but the rest of the family will enjoy them, too. This year, June 16 is THE day for "pampering dad." What better gift than a re- cliner to relax in after a hard day's work -- and for Moth­ er to use while Dad is at the office? And, of course, now is the time to choose that color tv that he -- and the rest of the- family -- have alwavs wanted. An old Chinese proverb states: "The father praising his son, extols himself." s p u r g e o n s Members oi Dad's Fan Club Meet at Spurgeon's (Father's Day June 16th) Dress Shirts at 15% Savings!
