Simply app brighten them up with a coat of gutter or a spnn- kling of sequins and beads Satin balls take on ate them with strips of lacy rftsbon held in place with pearl-headed pins. a new There are all kinds of gift suggestions offered for "the man who has every­ thing". But what about the poor shopper who has "an everything" list bat is short on time and gift ideas? It happens every year or there wouldn't be such a crush of frantic shoppers on De­ cember 24th. The people at Magnavox offer these suggestions for the gift-giver who dreams of one-stop Christmas shop­ ping and still hasn't de­ cided what to get for mem-' bers of the family. If you have a son or daughter in college, a com­ pact stereo system might be the ideal gift. There are several systems which cost under $300 and include all the necessary components FM/AM radio and pho­ nograph, 8-track tape player and air suspension speakers. Other modestly priced models combine a stereo FM/AM radio, 8- track tape player and air suspension speakers in an even more compact system. Or you may be thinking about adding a stereo cas­ sette recorder/player to the system your offspring al­ ready owns. A neat unit is available, which can be of real help in school work as well as for pure entertain­ ment. The cassette allows for recording as well as play-back of lecture notes, research material, etc. There are also portable tape recorders for the stu­ dent which are inexpensive but offer the most neces­ sary features such as a built-in microphone for "no hands" recording; automat­ ic level cohtrol and sim­ ple push-button controls operation. If there is a great cook in the family who spends a lot of time in the kitchen, he or she would probably appreciate a portable color television. A 13" or 15" screen size set will fit com­ fortably on most counters and shelves and can be great company for the chef -- not to mention an occa­ sional look at a Julia Child or Graham Kerr show for the latest culinary tips. It can be difficult to find just the right gift for a mother-in-law, so why not investigate your in-laws need for a clock radio. The FM/AM digital clock ra­ dios on the market are easy to operate, easy to read and have excellent sound qual­ ity. Your local home enter­ tainment center has all these electronic gifts under one roof for true one-stop shopping for the entire family. In English colonies, the yule log (often a large sec­ tion of an oik tree) burned brightly from Christmas Eve to Twelfth Night. After­ wards it was removed and placed under a bed as pro­ tection against thunder and fire. Bring us your KODAK Side FUm... FOR QUALITY COLOR PROCESSING BY KODAK : :v.
