Miniature clocks are fascinating gifts for under the Christmas tree. # . ’ By JEAN TABBERT +. "THE HOUR GLASS is running low so far as Christmas shopping 18 concerned. But local department and home furnishing stores still pave.a good supply of last-minute gift items on their shelves, .. Tardy buyers wilt-find-a-particularly selective array of suitable resents for the home. Miniature grandfather and grandmother's clocks shown. Both are available in the fourth-floor gift department. A chime that sounds at the quarter and the half as well as on the hour, is the most delight ful characteristic of the tall brown mahogany model. It's a Westminster chime clock that runs only on alternating current ($57.50). The feminine poption of the duo comes in a group of pretty’ pastels that include . pistachio

The popularity of plates on the wall is still on the increase, Colonial Furniture Co. combines that feature with a hurricane] lamp that also ‘pins up.”. The lamp's globe cames in yellow or red glass, and there's a choice of plates in the period scene shown or a fruit design ($9.95, complete). The tall hurricane is painted with red roses and comes at $15.05 the pair.

It’s alcoholproof and resistant to water, too. Made of light may wood, the gadget holds eight glasses, may be hung on the wall. Most practical aspect though is the fact that it will turn any which way and the {glasses won't upset. ($5.95.)
