special feature. Hosiery is always greatly in demand as Christmas gifts, and Thomson and Beattie's have a very wide range. Scarves in most colourful designs make a bright array, and there is a great variety of handkerchiefs both single and boxed.

For the men there are countless gifts that are sure to please, as a glance at the window will prove. Ties, socks, handkerchiefs, tie. presses, collar boxes, travelling requisites and dressing gowns are some lines that meet the eye.
The appearance of the whole store is a credit to those responsible and ensures for all patrons a very pleasant hour’s shopping with the certainty of being fully satisfied.
