HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Citizen, 1987-12-22, Page 13In a spectacular presentation of “A Real Canadian Christmas Tree”, the Grade One students ot Urey
Central Public School formed a living “tree” on the stage at the school’s Christmas concert on Friday.
Directed by their teacher Mrs. Richmond, the children sang while “decorating” their branches with
candles and toys. Grey’s entire pageant was called “A Real Canadian Christmas”, and was devoted
entirely to Christmas in our own land.
Gifts for the
working woman
The working woman receives
dozens of gifts during the holidays.
Employers and vendors, as well as
family and friends, are anxious to
extend their best wishes. So, it’s
not unusual for the same present to
turn up more than once.
Tobesureyourgiftisunique and
memorable, minimize the chances
of it being duplicated. Here are
some ideas on how to present a
holiday original:
•Think “personal” - Monograms
and intimate special touches can
personalizeany giftclassic. For
instance, chocolate can be “cus
tom made’ ’ in the shape of a house,
pet or hobby.
Initializing the standard pen and
pencilsetordaily diary can help
make that gift more thoughtful and
unique.
•Think “creative” - Christmas
offers the opportunity to purchase
special holiday gift packs not
available at any other time of the
year. For example, a favorite
fragrance might be paired with a
cleanser or lotion, and come in a
reusable satchel.
•Think “practical” - When send
ing a gift directly to the office, it’s
generally a good idea to make sure
it’s “commutable.’’ This way, the
receiver can decide whether to take
it home or to keep it at her
workplace.
'Tis the season to be jolly! We wish all
our friends the best!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
