Yes, that's right. I know that this is the month of July and no one or dinarily is thinking about Santa. But 1 had a new idea. I said to myself, "Why not get on the long distance phone and talk to that fabulous Christmas fellow about gifts that people ought to give one another during the year and not just at Christmas time? You know what Santa Claus told me? He said "I cannot understand why most folks down there think that gift giving is strictly and only a December 25th affair. Why. every month in the year you could remember someone with a nice present and how happy you would make that person!" I consider this an excellent idea. So I'm passing it along to you.
