Bradford's Store Opens

Christmas Toy land

Bradford’s Toyland in Flint Hill is open—and Santa has left a sample of all the best toys fresh, from his special North Pole factory! The Old be-whiskered, redsuited Saint Nick, himself, will be present on Thanksgiving to greet visiting youngsters.

If this exhibit of toys is indicative of the future of the Christmas to come, the holiday season this year will be dominated with Hopalong Cassidy and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer 1

It’s Hopalong Cassidy suitf—^ guns, belts, hats, boots, and all the trimmings—Hopalong Cassidy radios, television sets, musical toys and even a tricycle that is a gal? loping horse! r , i - The young lady of the family will And walking dolls, baby dolls, fancy dolls, dolls to have permanent waves put in the hair, and every kind-of doll ever dreamed of! ,

There are enough musical toys in that one room over Bradford’s Store to drive every sane parent in the world out of. the house to seek quiet in the barn. The safest thing to do is to get a musical instrument for each member of the family and then he can’t hear the racket the others are making. There are harmonicas, concertinas, genuine “ge-tars,” music boxes, grind organs, toy pianos, xylophones, and an electric organ that sounds just like church!

There are the fanciest electric trains for father, and sufficient entertainment for all the grownups in the county, as well' as the children.

The fellow who is to be fooled most is the one who thinks he will run by and take a quick look at the toys and get on out about his business.. Several hours later he is likely to be found stilli there, working some of the mechanical toys or watching others run.
