We-parents, grandparents, fr iends and children-remember one dayeach year as the day of gifts, And f rom the earliest recollection of eachof us t he g i ft that has given greatest pleasure to giver and to receiver wasnot necessarily the one that cost most money. It was the one that carriedwith it the sincere desire to please, to give happiness. And those who getmost out o f Christmas are those who carry that Christmas spirit throughthe whole year. We're all of us sel ling something t hrough the year that's the way we clothe and feed ourselves and our families. We sell realestate. But i f we, as we sell you, and you, as you sell your customers, putsomewhat of ourselves and yourselves into that sale-our Christmas willalways he merry and each New Year happy and prosperous.
