Are You always sorry to see Christnas come around-of course, e
cluding the pleasure of two weeks vacation? Do you get 13 pairs
socks, 13 handkerchiefs, and 13 boxes of dusting powder, and all t1
assorted junk-bunk that comes with Merry Christmas? I ask you, c
you? Course you do, but you love it ... Who doesn't?
