Once tomorrow is accounted for, we're in the stretch. The rush is with us getting and speaking late and soon! One way to Christmas shop and 1 yet maintain a duly religious attitude Mrs. Gould may be had in a visit to Krieg Bros.

at 249 N. Pennsylvania. Though the firm deals in church supplies, there are no end of objects there to appeal to the layman at Christmas time. Their imported effects are charming. One finds Christmas cards from Italy, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Austria, Belgium and Spain, glittering gift tags and advent calendars from abroad, foreign language cards, carved cherubs, some of them even on skis, little angels for tree ornaments, and unusual cardboard plates for Christmas goodies.

An impressive array of crib sets ranges from a nativity scene with wood carvings from Italy which, with its stable, costs $223.75 to a tiny plastic scene, 2 or 3 inches in size at $1.19, not to mention a cardboard variety for 10c. One set, German in origin and priced at $159.60, is simply captivating. Its madonna and child, its Magi, its full complement of nativity personnel are costumed in real materials. The collection of individual saints and madonnas includes figures in ivory, crystal, wood, porcelain and plaster. James Graves, who showed me around, knew exactly which saint was which as well as his or her form of patronage.

I found it all fascinating and replete with the reverence and glamour of the Yule. One offering, however, astonished me with its modernity- earrings with a religious cast. I always felt that earrings are a relic of barbarism. Yet one may have them with likenesses of St. Christopher and diverse other Christian saints and THE MUFFINS By Geo.

ANY DISCOUNT HIM Beautifully Laundered PHONE WA 3-4521 Cellophane Wrapped FOR NEAREST STORE 2 DAVIS CLEANERS) By LOIS MAE SMITH The old saying, "Many a true word is said in idle jest," was brought to mind by a recent cartoon.

It depicted customer in an appliance department surrounded by signs showing the monthly and down payment on each item. No place was the total price shown, and the customer had obviously asked it. An amazed salesman was asking the manager if it was permissible to give out such information. The humor of the cartoon is liberally, mixed with fact. Some merchants do regard the total cost of installment purchases as a top military secret.

What they say is truthful Miss Smith enough, but they fail to disclose enough facts to enable the buyer to make intelligent comparisons and decisions. Many say 24 or 36 months to pay without giving the total time purchase price which, in almost all cases, is higher than the cash price. But how much higher? Another variation states $10 per month without giving the period of time necessary to pay for the article at that rate. Of course, the buyer should ask for more facts before purchasing. Then, if the seller is evasive, the buyer should shop elsewhere.

Today's shopper may be to blame for ABBY SAYS Don't Dump Brood of 8 on Widow By ABIGAIL VAN BUREN DEAR ABBY: My problem is my lazy sister. She married a worthless bum and eight years later she presented my mother with eight children to raise for her. My mother is sickly and old and lives on a widow's pen- sion. She raised her own family and I don't see why she should have to raise my sister's eight. Sometimes I feel so sorry for Mamma I could cry.

I'd take the load off her myself but I have seven of my own to raise. Will you please tell me what can be done about this problem? SAD SISTER DEAR SAD: A sickly grandmother on a widow's pension cannot do justice to raising eight children. If your sister is neither willing nor able to raise her own children, the Family Service should be called in. DEAR ABBY: In our school we have a teacher who has gotten away with slapping children across the face and the back and shaking them good and hard. She has school for many years and all the children dread going into her class.

Parents have gone to the principal about her but nothing ever happens. The children of the parents who complained have been mistreated all the more. She makes no bones in class about not liking children but is smooth as they come when talking to parents. Let me add, the children are only 7 years old. We mothers would truthfully like to know what to do about it.

ANGRY PARENTS DEAR PARENTS: Get up a petition of complaints with as many signatures as you can secure (Don't forget the Dads) A representative of your group should make an appointment with the superintendent of schools and present it personally. For a personal reply write to ABBY in care of The Indianapolis News. Enclose a selfaddressed, stamped envelope. much of this advertising by innuendo. Top credit men have repeatedly asserted that the buyer is indifferent to total price.

He is only concerned with the amount of the monthly payment. The vast majority of merchants are honest and factual in their advertising. They police themselves and their competitors with an advertising code of ethics. The Federal Trade Commission polices advertising. It has just put out "Guides Against Deceptive Pricing." But the buyer must help enforce the rules by intelligent shopping.

It is only the unscrupulous few sellers who prey upon the uninformed buyer by resorting to fake sales, phony discounts, hidden charges and false comparisons. The smart buyer will be leery of a ridiculously low price. He should also question a "50 per cent off" claim. what? A fictitiously high base price? Factory or wholesale prices are also suspect. The manufacturer by tag or label may have deliberately "preticketed" the item at a high price to enable the seller to fake a big reduction.

The irresponsible seller may offer imperfect articles or seconds while making unfair comparisons with the first quality merchandise of his competitors. All this must be watched and weighed by the buyer. Miss Smith will answer your money questions. Address your questions to her in care of The Indianapolis News.

Cuff links, too! Well, it's a modern world. An attractively equipped shop is to be found in the very heart of Glendale. It's a small establishment offering clothing and accessories for men and operating under the name Roderick St. John, respective middle names of its owners, James MacDonald and Robert Lukemeyer. As a rule I can walk past haberdashery shops sparing but a casual glance to socks, cravats, caps, homburgs and such on view.

But one stopped me in my tracks not SO much because of its pleasing wares but because of the setting in which they were displayed. The premises are furnished with unusual effects from Brown's antique shop in Zionsville. One finds rugged quaintness in settees made from old surrey seats, in a wrought iron rack for raincoats topped with a brass eagle weather vane, an antique gargoyletopped towel rack for ties, a shaving stand in the fitting room, a mirror framed with a horse collar, hitching posts among window effects and coat racks hung from the ceilings with brass plated logging chains. In a conversation with Mrs. Marshall Brown of the Zionsville shop, I learned that the wonderful old counter in gleaming cherry wood from the Home Store in Zionsville which closed recently.

An old ribbon wherein the new owners keep their stock of hosiery also came from this old-time country general store. It seemed an odd switch that these effects should now be put to use in the city's most modern shopping center, whereas the rural store they came from is now being completely modernized and citified by new owners. Here indeed is a case of "rus in urbe" and vice versa!
