Don’t wait until the last minute. If you do. you are sure to select the wrong thing. That is one of the main reasons so many inappropriate gifi* are given every Christmas. I'm sure of it. The problem Js a serious one. It amounts to a great deal of worry. You want to give the best pres*- it, don't you? Of course you do. We all do That Is the spirit of Christ mas time. But what IS the best pres ent? That’s the question which both ers. a good many people every year. And that is the reason I asked the married readers of The Georgian ;o write me telling what THEY thought the best present for a wife to give her husband and for a husband to give Ids wife I wanted the experience of others to be of real benefit to those who are now worrying over the prob lem.

The taking of testimony In the Tur ner "graft” investigation Is cornplc • Turner has admitted receiving $520 and a gold watch from electrical con tractors, nut he claims that it was for the purpose of paying off his in debtedness incurred by his campaign for election. The feature of the close • if this hearing will be the argument of Attorney Aldine Chambers, who declares that he has proved Turner a grafter.” and who will recite to the committee what he claims to be clear grounds for impeachment. Council is perplexed over the n? >v traffic law that would stop the park ing of automobiles In the downtown section for more than 3ft minutes at a time, and would prohibit pedestrians from crossing streets except at cor ners. Society women who drive their machines and doctors who leave their ear* in the street during their office hours are vigorous protesters against the parking provision of ^hc law. mil they are causing considerable trouble to those who want to relieve congest ed conditions.
