from all other seasons of the year. It’s the time when those dear to you
come home and the family Is together once
more—the days of yore are once more recalled1
and every one is happy in spite of the burdens
and worries that may confront one in every
day life. And so it is. another Christmas. And
we look forward to seeing our friends and dear
ones once more at home. It shall be a grand
holiday season, .
