Old Slory
Old Glory waves over Amer
ican homes at Christmas time.
The Stars and Stripes are sym
bolic of the true meaning of an
American Christmas. It repre
sents a freedom of doing the
things we want to do—of being
happy, with loved ones and
friends.
Although the Yuletide is
celebrated throughout the world
there is no place where people
are more privileged to enjoy
this festive occasion as happily
as those within the boundaries
of this nation.
This is our heritage—to par
ticipate in the freedom made
possible by our courageous
forefathers who founded this
nation on the basis of Liberty
and Justice. It is our moral
obligation to carry on the tra
ditions of Christmas as a defi
nite part of the American way
of life. This is what we mean
when we say we wish you a
merry American Christmas.
We Thank You for Your Business and Good-Will
In the Past. We Look Forward With Pleasure to Serv
ing You in the Future.

The value of a friendly word at
Christmas or at any other time car
ries a significance unsurpassed. It
adds to the feeling of satisfaction that
comes from the knowledge of having
friends during times such as those
we have experienced during the past
months. A friendly word is some
thing that is indelibly impressed in
the minds of people who have en
dured sacrilices and difli''iilt ti*- —
It is with full knowledge of the
real meaning of a friendly word that
we express our Christmas Greetings
to you. ' IT hen we say, "Merry
Christmas" we want you to accept it
as a word of cheer and goodwill.
May all the blessings of a glorious
Christmas be the good fortune of oui
many friends.
