THURSDAY, NOV. 21, ‘Darn-in-Lite’ Easy on Eyes

Wives who have many socks to repair will appreciate the gift of the flashlight darning egg, “Darn-in-Lite.”

Light glows through the sooth :

It saves eyestrain and is particularly helpful on dark woolens, If she doesn’t like to darn socks, “Mend-Sox,” the new compact electrical tool for welding a patch on a sock, is an ideal gift.

It is a great time saver arcund the house and might even intrigue the youngsters into mending their own hose.

Looking Over The New Toys For Children

Vacuum Cleaner Is Among the Crop

Really revolutionary, say the makers of baby toys, is the brand-new Magic Skin Baby in rayon romper, sunbonnet, shoes and ‘stockings. This doll has body, legs and arms made of a soft plastic material, not sewn, but molded into shape. This process maRes possible details much more clear and distinct than by former methods. These plastics have never before been used on dolls. Light as a feather, the doll is reportd practically indestructible. The head of non-breakable plastic has been especially sculptured to resemble that of a new-born infant.

"The “Growling Bear”

A ferocious little fellow is the “Growling Bear.” This harmless and lovable little playmate, a fully jointed, de luxe washable mohair bear, growls like a real one and is so well proportioned that it can stand up on all four legs. Realistic barnyard noises arise when you press the pages of the “Squeekum Book,” the latest in animal literature. Among the illustrated book's 12 pages are four which have devices that give out lifelike imitations of barnyard voices. A new idea in dolls is the magic hand doll which can pick up lightweight objects having a bit of steel in them. Tiny magnets set in the hands are the secret. Six appropriate playthings accompany each doll, but every youngster will soon devise others.

A Child's Vacuum Cleaner

A child’s vacuum cleaner that really works will be on the market this December to delight mamma's little helper. It will be known as the “Bizzie-Bee.” One of the new bathroom delights is the spouting whale, a realistic looking animal of flexible latex that floats partly submerged and spouts quite a stream when squeezed. A similar toy is the bathtub subFirst of its kind in Amer-

| Speeding along the surface, it dives |and rises automatically. The Latest in Playsuits Exact replicas of airline pilot suits are the latest in boys’ playsuits. The Indian and the cowboy seem to have joined the dodo. War's effect is seen even in kidNow we have a bank shaped like a tank. Naturally, it is called the “Tank Bank.”

Heart-capturing are the new DyDee Dolls, with their almost human

additional charge.

Clever Gifts For the Best Girl Friend

Some Suggestions for Puzzled Young Men

Sisters are important at Christmas time, especially when they are someone else's. A clever gift is bound to make a big impression on the young lady. For evening wear she’s like the shoes, belt and bracelet to match, woven and crocheted of cotacord, the new plastic. Intricate designs give the effect of scintillating jewels, The material is tough, water-resistant and is easily cleaned with a damp rag. Does she travel frequently? Give a thought to the new Fly-Away bag. It has ample room for nightie, slippers, dressing gown, and is completely fitted with a varied assortment of very fancy toilet accessories. Dainty Boudoir Lamps

There's a dainty boudoir lamp that any sister will rave about. Only 16 inches over all, it has a ruffled celanese shade above a pastel milk glass type base. On rainy nights she will appreciate’ having a flashlighted umprella. The battery is in the straight part of the ' removable handle of Lucite, the new plastic that conducts light around curves. It eliminates fumbling for keyholes or stepping into unsuspected puddles. Goes well with the new stepless autos. A novelty soap is Wim and Wigor, consisting of two full-size dumbells made of fine bath soap inside—each weighing nearly a pound. It comes packed in a gay box decorated with fancy postures and containing inside a scroll giving humorous illustrated “exercises.”

Self-Cleaning Combs, Too

A novel gift is the self-cleaning comb. It has teeth cut all the way through on one side with a bar on the other side for holding it. It is .very easy to clean, since there are no closed pockets to catch dirt. If she’s often away from home, she’ll appreciate a portable radio. One of the most ingenious of the camera type radios is the RCA Personal Radio. So small it can be easily held in the hand, it has an excellent tone and range. Opening and closing the cover, in which is a built-in antenna, turns’ the radio on and off enirely automatically.

And Non-Run Hosiery

Non-run hosiery may fill a longfelt want. "An eastern hosiery mill is bringing out a new line of non-run nylon hose which will probably be on the counters some time before Christmas. Those who love to read in bed will delight in Luxury, the new bed lamp. Made of soft ivory or deep walnut plastic, it blends with any color scheme. A shield filters out glare and heat and allows only cool restful light to fall on the reader’s book.

Camera Type Radio Slips Into Pocket

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Some: Presents

For the Man Of the House

Does He Like Knives? Golf? Knicknacks? Is your husband keen about

knives? . Give him a set of Gerber Blades

“land he'll always want to show off

before guests. These hand made carving" knives feature blades ground from a solid piece of extremely high-grade steel. Harder than a file, they cut beautifully and stay sharp. Handles are made of a solid alloy casting, shaped to fit the hand. The

bset of three are named after the

most famous blades in history, Excalibur, Balmung and Joyeuse. And to appease the superstitious, the maker incloses a gift bill for 1 cent.

‘New Calendar Clocks

An ornamental gift for him and one also useful to the entire family would be the “Almanac,” one of the new calendar clocks. It gives accurate time, plus the day of the week and the date of the month.

The “Weathercaster,” an aneroid|

barometer, makes a smart-looking gift for anyone interested in the weather. It’s adjustable 'for accurate readings at elevations up to 3500 feet above sea level. It comes in light brown plastic case with gold-colored spokes.

The portable searchlight, “Mobilite,” is just the thing for the man who likes to work on his own car or has his own workshop. Its pistol-like handle has a hook, so it can be hung under the hood or under the chassis. The light will lie on end without rolling, is encased in tough light plastic.

Pliaglas Wallet Sets

Make bill paying a pleasure with one of the new Pliaglas belt and wallet sets. They are made of tough flexible translucent plastic, and yet have the crackled effect of early American Sandwich glass. “Tinkle Tabs,” party novelties, will be enjoyed by both wife and husband. Have your guest pick a pea-green crocodile, or a baby-blue gnu, and hook it over the edge of his glass when you are serving drinks. The “Tinkle Tab” will identify the glass as his for the rest of the evening. Molded in plastic in 20 different colors, they keep mixed drinks from being mixed up. For the Golfer

Does he golf, or has he golfing friends? In either case he’ll like one of the “Golfer’s Ashtrays.” Four miniature golf clubs, easily detached for cleaning, act as cigaret rests. They are made of gleaming polished chromium or copper, with clubs in chromium and black. An attractive gift for husbands is the “Floraflect,” a wrought iron marker for driveways. It is shaped like a flower and has a reflecting glass disk in its head that glows brightly under headlights. It is tall enough to outline the drive under a heavy snowfall. Most men like tricky gadgets. “Rolodex” is the last word in memo cases. A quick flick of the roller shoots out a egrisp clean memo sheet right on your finger tips. Everything always neat and orderly, yet there are 230 3x5 sheets right at hand but always out of sight in the handsome bakelite case. Comes in four colors with bright red roller.

Just the Thing for: Golfing Boy Friend

If your boy friend is a golfer you can be sure he’s not satisfied with his game. Give a thought then to the new Masterpiece golf device, a sensational idea for improving one’s game. The inventor claims it will cut 10 strokes off the average golfer’s score. It's merely a heavy rubber mat with a golf ball attached to it by means of a very elastic cord and a movable target a short distance away which will show the direction of the drive. Just the thing for a house party. He can practice on it at home or take it on trips to keep his swing in the groove.

Tiny portable radios being the rage, you can’t miss if you pre-) sent a G. E, Camera Type Radio. It weighs only 4! pounds, is small |

coat pocket, and comes in handsome carrying case of deep maroon. The door, in which there is a built-in antenna, acts automatically and cuts off the battery cure rent. when closed. Flashlight bate teries used are good for 12 hours continuous playing.

Some New Ideas In Fishing Lures

Sport departments have some new ideas in luminous fishing lures this season. Made of plastic, the baits have a tantalizing glow that proves irresistible to the big ones in the dark pools—or so the manufacturers claim. Expose these lures for a few minutes to a flashlight and they'll glow for hours.
