There’s a wealth of delightful holiday finery on hand for little girls this season. Two
examples are these fashions by Nannette. Rayon sailor dress (left) is in white
trimmed with blue banding. The skirt is pleated and there’s an anchor emblem on
the sleeve. Woven navy and white cotton check (right) has hipbone waist and self
belt. The tiny skirt is pleated center front and back. White cuffs and collar are
trimmed in Venise lace.
Dear Santa Claus — I am a
little girl, almost six years old,
and my name is Kalena Gail
Vrana.
I would like a Tressie Doll
with make up and hair color
for Christmas; also some dishes,
(topper ware) and silverware.
Also, a little cabinet for my
dishes and silverware. Don’t for-
get all the little boys and girls
who were good. I love you, San-
ta Claus. Bye,
Kalena Vrana

ON THE
AVENUE
BY FAY CASEBOLT
“When one is hospitalized
with mental illness and without
the possibility of earning mon-
ey to buy items of personal care
and very often without anyone
to provide these, it is sometim-
es surprising to many people
that their Christmas wishes are
for simple things which most
of us take for granted as ne-
cessities,” said a chairman of
the Terrell State Hospital Vol-
unteer Council.
Our State Hospital at Terrell
serves 31 surrounding counties
and has 2,715 patients. Many of
these patients have lost contact
with friends and relatives and
will not receive any gifts except
those provided through the love
and generosity of voluntary
donors. In the past, volunteers
have been able to provide want-
ed and needed articles at
Christmastime for the many
hundred’s of forgotten patients
with the assistance of m any
friends, church and Sunday
School groups and club dona-
tions.
For a number of years, Ennis
Twentieth Century Club has had
this as one of its main projects
and always various individuals
and groups have given gifts and
checks to a member of the Cen-
tury Club to take there,
along with the club’s gifts.
Those who would like to help
so that no patient will be with-
out a few of the items wished
for at Christmastime are to
contact MRS. P. V. MULKEY OR
MRS. W. I. RABE or any mem-
ber of the Century Club. They
plan to take the gifts about mid-
week next week and spend the
day in wrapping gifts.
During the first week in No-
vember Christmas lists were
sent to each of the 51 hospital
wards of the Terrell State Hos-
pital. Each patient was asked to
check not more than four of the
items he or she would most en-
joy receiving. The results of
those wishes form the lists,
which have been published sev-
eral times in The Ennis News
in the past few weeks. As you
probably recall the lists include
such simple items as Kleenex,
ladies and men’s combs, hair
brushes, nail care sets, deod-
orants, lotions, hose, etc. How-
ever, citizens of the community
may give cash or checks,
instead of something from the
lists. “Money is sometimes the
best help of all in our work be-
cause we can often purchase
needed items for gifts at a
great saving when buying in
quantity,” said a member of the
Volunteer Council. Items given
should not be wrapped as they
are sorted, labelled and wrapped
at the hospital.
In giving by check please re-
member to make your check to
The Volunteer Council for Ter-
rell State Hospital and mark it
Christmas for Patients. All do-
nations to the Volunteer Council
are tax deductible.

A new Roblee "brog"
and its Scotch-Irish granddaddy
As early as 1600, Scotch and Irish country-
men were wearing a shoe made from a
single piece of untanned deerhide with the
hair still on, and tied with thongs. It was
called a “brog.”
o
Its descendants are here in our store today
• -. without hair . .. and known as brogues. A.
fine example, the Imperial, is pictured above.
Roblee brogues have every feature you like
in a business shoe. Husky, hearty looks.
Rugged, lustrous leathers, rubbed and rolled
till they're soft and pliant. And a light,
comfortable feel on your foot.
Drop around for a pair of Roblee brogues.'
And remember to tip your hat to the
O’Donnells and Macphersons that you meet.
