! * Card Buying By JEAN OF COURSE you'll send Christmas- cards—to acquaintances and associates, to all but your nearest and dearest. They're small but potent reminders of your friendliness. Moreover an attractive «card is in better taste than a cheap, trashy gift. . So go shopping. You'll find interesting cards at tiny prices, ‘but you'll ‘have to buy with an eye. When scanning the stationer's racks,” look for three things — good - quality paper, simple drawing and clear color, an unsentimental, sincere greeting. . ” n » IF YOU spot a satisfactory “item; it's smart to buy a bunch of them. You can send identical cards to your whole list, you know, provided they meet the three requirements of quality, art work and wording. Beware of would-be witty sayings when your list includes adults you don't know well. Too slangy or too flip a message will give a wrong impression. - A Christmas greeting should be friendly, not presumptuous or impudent.” 177 Bign “your full name in ink on each card. Minus “Miss” or “Mr.” .of course! And add a chatty note if the holiday spirit moves you.
