Some holiday advice from the December 20, 1929, Beloit Review. Let’s Go Shopping
With The Review ReporterAt the Home Book Shop, 735 College Ave., you will find many books for everyone, for Father there is Benjamin Franklin, and the Poisoned Chocolate Case, then of interest to Mother is Queen Elizabeth, and The Life of an Ordinary Woman. Ends of the Earth and Ultima Thula, to please the college boys. Christopher Morley’s book of Poems, Paris in Profile and a Modern Comedy will make big Sister very happy. There is also many books to interest and please all ages of children from the tiny tots to the older ones.
Compliments of the Season – and may this Yuletide be the happiest you have ever known – such is the wish of Dorothy’s Marcel Shoppe to their patrons.
Have you seen and heard the wonderful Warner Brothers Vitaphone productions at the Rex Theatre lately? Truly it is a revelation beyond words. When you plan on attending a picture show go to the Rex Theatre where you will be entertained with a full bill of A-1 talkies. No boring ‘Commercial Flickers.’
At the Caravan Craft Shop, 735 College Ave., you will find some candles in the shape and color of a Christmas tree and in sizes suitable for individual or center table decorations for your Christmas dinner and many other artistic decorations. They have some stocking toys and many articles which would attract the last minute shopper.
What could be a more appropriate Christmas gift than a box of Mirror Hosiery? Pure silk chiffon and service weight – full fashioned – and the world’s most beautiful hose at $1.00 to $1.95 a pair. Purchase these at the Dollar Hosiery Shop, 122 W. Grand Ave., who also have a beautiful line of lingerie, artistically boxed for Christmas gifts.
The reporter has a message to give to all who have not as yet purchased their Christmas gifts. Stier’s Jewelry and Gift Shop is receiving new shipments of merchandise daily, to keep their stock complete, please their patrons and not be compelled to greet them with the old saying, “sorry, but we are out of that today.” There are just as many beautiful and useful gifts in this shop now, as ever, and you positively cannot be disappointed in finding your choice of gifts.
Your Xmas Flowers – Where will you get them? Perhaps you might welcome the suggestion to go where they have every type of blossom, leaf and wreath for the Holiday needs – the Rindfleisch’s Flower Shop, 514 E. Grand Ave., for first class merchandise. Phone 917.
The Luxury Garment Shop is selling one lot of $13.95 silk crepe sresses for $4.95 and $5.95. See these bargains before buying your new Christmas dress.
Most everyone prefers hand made practical gifts for all occasions, as Christmas, showers, birthdays, and club prizes and I saw some lovely ones in Mrs. Southwick’s Gift Shop at 1018 Central Ave. Admirers of antiques should visit this shop.
Give her a “Hoover” for Christmas and make her happy for the whole year. No part of a woman’s housework is harder or more wearisome than the task of sweeping and cleaning. A “Hoover” lightens the load and makes it a pleasure, also making the house a more sanitary place in which to live for it cleans, as it beats, as it sweeps. The R. T. Morrill Plumbing and Heating Co. will gladly demonstrate a “Hoover” in your home, just call 73.
