How to enjoy the party spirit
Gordon's is the party-spirit and one of the great things about it is that everyone can have it as they like it sweet or dry, short or long. Like a happy man, Gordon's is a good mixer. Bottle 34/6 (about $4.83)?; 1/2 bottle 18/- (about $2.52)?; 1/4 bottle 9/5 (about $1.32)?; miniature 3/8. (about 51 cents)?
Gin and Tonic. Serve in a fairly large glass so that people can add as much Tonic Water as. they like. Add a thin slice of lemon.
Gin and Orange. For a short-and-sweet, have equal quantities of Gordon's and Orange Squash. Reduce the orange for a semi-sweet. For a long drink, add soda water.
ORANGE GIN & LEMON GIN
Smooth as a fine liqueur and 60° proof, Gordon's Orange Gin  and Gordon's Lemon Gin can be served before a  meal (preferably chilled) or after the meal as a liqueur. Bottle 32/-(about $4.48 )?; 1/2 bottle 16/9d. (about $2.35)? ; miniature 3/5d. (about 48 cents)
?
P.S. - Busy barmen appreciate clear orders, 
e.g .. Gordon's with a dash of orange, please."

How a well-dressed woman travels
She will be seen, discussed, admired. So she has chosen her clothes and accessories with care. Will she choose her hand luggage with the same care? Of course, a Revelation Zip Bag for her.

Where else can you find this type of luggage in so many gay colours? 
In so many smart fabrics? In so many handy sizes? And that isn't all. The Revelation Zip Bag does not lose its shape, it keeps its chic outline full or empty. Do yourself justice, and have-one, too!
Each Revelation Zip Bag is superbly made, and agreeably inexpensive The one illustrated (Model ZR1S) is 18” long, in Rayon Canvas (choice of several-co/ours). It is trimmed with Revelide and costs £2.15.0. (about $7.70)? Others from £1.12.6. (about  $4.55)

MARRIAGE
"Fill my pipe!" my true love cries.
"Crack me almonds! Bake me pies!"
(He has speckled eyes.)
"Feed me like a king !" he'll call.
"Lobsters! Steaks! I crave them all !"
(He is willow-tall.)
Once, with courting chivalry,
Only one demand had he:
(That was: "Dance with me ! ")
Now obedience keeps me slim,
As I coddle every whim.
(All for love of him.)

The average price of a new home then was $11700 2.63 times your yearly average wage of $4450.  Which was about 2.17 times the price of a new car $2050. Today?
