- 3 *The days when drycleaners put those phony handkerchiefs stapled to cardboard in the top pockets of men's jackets. *Running boards on cars. Ah Memories [Don't look at me! Ed.] by Peter Warren St. Stephen's Parish News MEMORABLE CHURCH SIGNS Come in and pray today. Beat the Christmas rush. (Los Angeles, California) FINAL WORDS I feel sure that the real spirit of Christmas is alive and well, even if the dazzling light of "things" sometimes results in an eclipse of that gentle, beckoning star. Under the spell of Christmas The world seems to live anew Loved ones are dearer than ever Friendship is heartier too. Blessings pour forth in abundance Richer than words can tell If only the world could always be Under the Christmas spell. Jean Kyler McManus I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
