Since this is a year when “piacti* callity" must share a place right beside "sentimentality” as the essence of the spirit of Christmas Giving, the Yuletide lights brightly on the great and growing group of “business

girls.”

Ever stop to think how many of those charmifig, efficient and practical, but nevertheless very feminine, young women there are among our friends and relatives?

answer is complete as the result of a contest conducted by the magazine “Your Charm” earlier this year. From her beau, the contest reveals, she wants as you might have expected jewelry and preferably an engagement i ing. Pin. clip, watch, bracelet, necklace, compact, perfume, handbag, gloves, luggage, will do. But if he’s In the service she expects to give much more than she gets. Sin would like his picture under

daughter. When it comes to girl-friends the business girl likes to exchange gifts of cosmetics, perfume, hosiery, lingerie, novelty jewelry, magazine subsciiptions, handkerchiefs and similar personal items. When it comes to her Boss, the Business Girl is very definite about what she wants. She’d like it a $2.50 a week raise, and failing that she wants a Bonus in Cash. She hopes to get a few Defense Savings Stamps and maybe a Defense Bond or two. and that gives you another clue to the practical efficient mind of the modern business girl, because she’s going to give Detense Savings Stamps to a lot of people she knows.

TRAVELS BURMA ROAD < Coutlnui-d from I’aso Ooei we were in the mountains, and we couldn't average over ten miles a.i hour. The road was rough: the curves were blind curves; and the upgrade was very steep. Tlie road on the Chinese side was even worse than that on the Bunn t side. After traveling two days on this side, we all wished we had those fine broad highways of Burma t > travel on, because now the road was even more narrow and the mountain: much higher with only a small 1<- Ige for a road. This ledge, and I'm r i exaggerating when I say it, wasn't more than ten feet wide at places and with thousands of feet of emp:y space directly below us. It made one hug the mountain side, for all along the way we could see the evidence oi those that didn't. Trucks by the tens and even hundreds were from a few feet to thousands of feet below us. Most of these trucks they don't try to salvage for they are completely demolished even down to the cargo. After sixteen days traveling and crossing nine different mountain ranges, a most welcome sight met my eyes, the city of Kunming. No more sleeping in my bed roll in the back of the truck, no more eating from cans, and no more drinking boiling hot water, that is for awhile for there before me was Kunming, the city that ha I food cooked American style, beds were soft, ice water, and even ice cream. The scenery was of such beauty on the trip that it’s almost Impossible for me to describe—the sun set in the evenings, the early morning sun creeping over the mountains We were up b< fore the sunrise and drove till the sun dropped in the western sky.
