THE CARROLLTON CHRONICLE
CARROLLTON, TEXAS, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1965
WHEN SANTA LEAVES
While American children al-
ways find their Christmas pres-
ents in the stockings or under the
tree, children of other nations
must search for theirs. Norwegian
children seek them out in hiding
places which may be anywhere in
the house. In Italy, they seek
them in “Urns of Fate” and in
France children usually find them
in wooden shoes.

Simple, unadorned
thoughts are best at
Christmas So we
would only wish you a
joyful and happy holi-
day season, when
every step you take in-
creases your desire to
be a friend to man.
And a Merry Christ-
mas to you

OUTDOOR DECORATIONS
BEGAN IN SMALL TOWNS
Today nearly every community
in the land has some kind of out-
door Christmas decorations and in
nearly every big city you can find
two or three spectacular displays.
It was a small town that first
came up with the idea of lighting
up the outdoors at Christmas
time, but no one is quite sure
which town gets credit for the
idea.
Four communities are belfeved
to have thought of it about the
same time, as early as 1913. Two
of them, McDonald and German-
town, are in Pennsylvania. Salem,
Oreg., decorated a Sitka spruce
and Riverside, Calif., illuminated a
large evergreen, an Aracuria.
