My sister Bertha and I sent a box of candy and cake to an old lady who used to live here and now resides in a home in Bellingham. Mrs. Brown of Lewiston has been very ill, so we each sent her a box long before Christmas – chickens and cottage cheese of which she’s very fond, and Bertha will send another box of chicken, cheese, butter, and cream. They are awfully hard up and she’s been such a good friend to us. – Ina
In the words of the song, “The Secret of Christmas:”
“So, may I suggest the
secret of Christmas,
It’s not the things you
do at Christmastime,
But the Christmas
things you do all year through.”
[Written by Sammy Cahn and Jimmy Van Heusen for Bing Crosby, recorded in1959. You can hear Bing sing it by clicking here.]
And a bunch of other Christmas songs, too.
