Here it is Christmas Eve already. Onl, a few weeks ago it seemed so far Off. But here it is. A few more hours and
it will be Christmas again.
Christmas Is a family time and a reflecting time. We are all grateful for the families with which we share the joys of Christmas. We are all grate- ful for the prosperity of our country which allows us to enjoy this Yuletide in such comfort
and leisure.
We have much for which to be grate: ful. Henderson and Cudmore, have you for which to be grateful . . wonderful support you have given us
. and the
since we opened our doors 45 years
One reason we like Christmas Is because we then have the opportunity to see so many of you again, while you are doing your Christmas shop- ping. Believe us, it‘s fun helping you selct just the right tie for Uncle Joe, to advise on the kind of sport shirt The Mr. would buy if he were do- Ing it himself, and to give the kids a hint or two
on what Dad really goes for.
Well. that’s enough reflecting for one day. Soon it “ill be time to close the
store and go home to the families. Merry Christmas Everybody!

“Two's company,” as the old saying But four is even better company When two sets of .twins are involved! Read in Weekend the story full of romance and coincidence that led to a unique double wedding in Quebec. Pictures (which were not taken with the aid of mirrors) portray the unusual Armenian wedding customs, un- changed for 1,500 years, that characterized this doubly happy celebration.
A plan for world survwal may well be derived from a fantastic project taking place in Swedens This neutral country is in an awkward position, and isn't taking any chances on wearing a mush- room shroud. Why is Sweden so far advanced in atomic defence? You‘ll be fascinated by the Weekend photofeature describing the under-a ground harbors, hangars. hospitals and factories that honeycomb the nation, and their ingenious . peacetime uses.
