IMHJ.S AM) CHRISTMAS GO TOGETHER mul ihi* doll with

Dolls, Dolls, Dolls!
Each Has Story to Tell
"It's fun to get a doll for
Christinas.”
This statement comes from
a real authority, who is a for
mer Marine, a world traveler
and international airline ex
ecutive — and who is also a
man who has more dolls than
almost anybody except Santa
Claus!
Collector Samuel F. Pryor is
the founder of the Interna
tional Doll Library in Green
wich, Conn., where more than
8,000 dolls are gathered in fab
ulous variety.
Begun in 1953 when he in
herited 300 dolls from a friend,
the still-growing collection
includes hundreds of dolls
searched out by Mr. Pryor
himself, and it has also been
augmented by gifts from some
of the thousands of visitors to
the Doll Library— hence Mr.
Pryor’s personal knowledge
that a doll under the Christ
mas tree is truly a source of
delight.
The Doll Library, so named
because every doll has a story
to tell, Is attractively housed
in a 1792 barn, remodeled to
provide appropriate settings
for the dolls. Visits to the Doll
Library are by appointment
only.
Here, there are antique dolls,
historic dolls, craft, dolls, reli
gious dolls, dolls of every land
and every era The dolls in
deed have much to tell to the
serious student of world his
tory and world civilization.
But to Mr. Pryor, the impor
tant. thing about the dolls is
that they are objects of affec
tion cherished by little girls
waling for Santa, and by ev
eryone who loves dolls, to play
with and admire.
Along with their legacy of
love, the dolls bring a record
of mankind’s ingenuity.

Among the antique dolls in
Mr. Pryor’s collection is a 19th
century beauty who turns her
head, flutters her eyelids,
iieaves her bosom and plays a
lyre, to the tune of a hidden
music box.
Many other dolls in the
Pryor collection make it plain
that mechanical accomplish
ments are by no means limited
to the dolls of today. For in
stance, a group of early Ameri
can dolls includes the “Auto
peripatetikos”- a walking doll
patented in 1862.
Another kind of ingenuity is
manifest in the craft dolls,
lovingly fashioned by thought
lul hands from virtually any
and every convenient material
pen wipers, shells, newspa
pers, wishbones, sponges, corn
cobs, pine cones, pipecleaners,
day pipes, even an old potato
masher.
Among them are “Mr. and
Mrs. Crab,” dolls with faces
made from crab claws. These
do-it-yourself dolls were fea
tured in "Oodey’s Lady’s Book”
for May 1867, with illustrations
of Mr. and Mrs. Crab and “how
to” instructions.
Among the Library’s little in
habitants, dolls of other lands
form a miniature United Na
tions. A turbaned Brazilian
dancer, a Spanish matador
with cape and sword, a Japa
nese geisha, a Belgian lady,
a German tourist, an Arabian
desert prince, an Argentinian
gaucho the list is seemingly
endless.
Differences may divide na
tions but not in the Doll
Library Mr. Pryor’s dolls get
an opportunity to enact the
holiday spirit of peace and
good will, all year. As a pas
time, he likes to bring dolls
of many nations together in
friendly groups.

Candles & Goblets
Upside Down
Goblets become candlehold
ers when they are turned upside
down. Stand them in a row on
a window sill. Let them light
the living room. .March them
down the middle of the smor
gasbord table. They are bright
and effective and very quick
and easy to arrange. Inside
each goblet, place a large
Christmas ball, each one a dif
ferent color. Secure 10 inch
red candles to the bottoms of
the goblets (which are now the
tops) with candle wax or floral
clay, hide it with sprigs of ev
ergreen. If you use candlewax,
decorate or not as you wish —
the wax matches thecandleand
does not show.
CHRISTMAS FLOWERS
Azaleas are making a big
1 comeback as a Christmas flow
er. You’ll find red azaleas, white
. ones and pink, as well as a
, pink and white variegated
variety.

FAITHFUL TO THE SPIRIT OF THE FIRST CHRISTMAS is “The Nativity,” by the Florentine
painter Mariotlo Albertinelli (1474-1515). The simple scene presents the Christ Child, with Mary
anil Joseph, in a realistic setting, and background detail suggests a hillside manger, typnaj of the
1 rocky eaves which were used for stables in Bethlehem. Painting is in the Uffizi Gallery, in Florence,
Italy.
