i BELIEVE that there are some people who start worrying

about Christmas cards more than a couple of days before the last possible moment; and if there are any of them among the readers of this column 1 should like to draw their attention to the admirable cards produced by UNICEF, the United Nations Children's Fund. There is a most attractive series of designs by Edy Legrand, Antonio Frasconi, Roger Duvoisin, Lewitt-Milli and Henri Matisse. A box of ten cards costs 7s. 6d. and orders should be sent to UNICEF Greeting Card Fund at 15 Victoria Street, London, SW1. These cards are infinitely more pleasant than the ordinary commercial product, and buyers have the satisfaction of knowing that the profit goes towards the welfare of needy children all over the world. The sale of one box of ten cards means, for example, that fifty children can have milk every day for a week.
