THEY'RE OPEN TODAY-LAST-MINUTE GIFTS Forgotten Man Remembered in Downtown Rush at Counters. Tics, hosiery, handkerchiefs and cigars, purchased hurriedly by lastminute shoppers yestezday, were opened today by persons almost forgotten in the Christmas shopping daze. Gifts were bought in haste for names added to Christmas lists s shoppers made last-minute inventory of friends and relatives. There was the woman woo dashed into a pet shop yesterday to pick out anew collar for her dog. She said she didn't know how she had forgotten him. Weary clerks smiled listlessly at the shoppers who demanded a lace handkerchief, silk scarf, size nine stockings or a bottle of perfume. Buy in Haste There was little of the leisured bargaining and careful selections that marked the early days of the Christmas rush. Shoppers wanted merchandise and they wanted it in a hurry yesterday. Very' few expensive purchases were made, and the 5 and 10-cent stores were jammed. Liquor stores reported that many, who hesitated to trust themselves with a bottle of Scotch two weeks before Christmas, bought yesterday. Tobacco counters sold many boxes of cigars, pipes and cartons of cigaretz. Probably the busiest place in the downtown area was the City Market, thronged with housewives buying supplies for holiday menus. There was an upturn in the sled and ice skate business, because of the freezing weather and heavy snow. In spite of the last-minute haste, shoppers generally were goodnatured. Some clerks said they were too tired to snap at sales persons. Business among merchants was heaviest just after the noon hour, because many firms gave their employes half-holidays to complete their shopping. Most clerks tried to relax and forget business today, because they realize that tomorrow the shoppers again are to descend upon the stores to exchange gifts and spend Christmas money.

LINDY’S HOME TOWN REGRETS ENGLISH TREK Little Falls Residents Express Indignation at Condition. By United Per** LITTLE FALLS. Minn., Dec. 25. This home town of Col. Charles A. Lindbergh expressed indignation and regret at the departure of its favorite son from America. “It is a sad picture,” lamented County Attorney Austin L. Grimes, who met Lindbergh upon his return to Washington after his famous flight in 1927. “I regret to see that law-enforcing agencies are so inadequate in this country. He might i have moved to some other part of this country where law enforcement is more rigid.” Martin Engstrom, one of the colonel’s best friends, expressed dismay at the news; “I don’t think Charlie ever will be satisfied to live in England.” j Engstrom. who watched Lindbergh . as a boy tinkering in his workshop, continued: “Things are pretty bad when a 1 man has to get his ojvn family out! of his own country through no fault of his own. At no time during their numerous conversations here last summer, did Charles or Anne hint they would leave. I never ques- j tioned Charles about his plans but j he volunteered information at times!

and I thought he intended to spend more time around here. This is his home and he liked it. Anne liked it, too, even though she was raised in the East. Carl Bolander. one of the colonel's confidants in Little Falls, expressed similar opinion. “I hope this blows over soon and they can come back here to live.” Bolander said. "He never said so, but he asked some questions that would lead one to believe that was in the back of his mind.” Friends carefully avoided mentioning the tragic kidnaping when the Lindberghs visited here last summer. During the visit Mrs. Lindbergh said, “we have had much happiness, and much sorrow, too.”
