THE NIGHT BEFORE emisrms
throughout the country,
Dr, Moore was not pleased. In
fact, he was embarrassed. He felt
it beneath the dignity of a man of
his scholastic reputation to author
of children's verses.
As time went on, the poem became
increasingly more famous and. Dr.
Moore, perhaps upon the urging of
his. proud family, finally admitted
authorship. More than two decades
after he penned the poem at the.
family fireside the jingles were pub
fished in book form, under his name. "
Author of the poem was Dr,
Clement Clad Moore, an aloof pro-
fessor of Greek and Oriental liter-
ature in the Episcopal Seminary in
New York. Dr. Moore did not write
the poem for publication. He wrote
it on Christmas Eve, 1822, for the
enjoyment of his seven children.
It happened that on this particu-
lar Christmas Eve a relative w a s
visiting the Moore family. She put
a copy of the poem in her diary.
The following holiday season, the
relative's father sent a copy, unsigned
as to author, to a newspaper.
Other newspapers picked up the
jingle and printed it in their columns.
The poem quickly became known,
loved, and repeated each Christmas
f.
k'fkken,
"Twas the night before Christmas,
when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not
even a mouse; —
So begins one of the most beloved
of all Christmas writings. It would
be difficult to find a ny one whose
memory of childhood does not as-
sociate these words with the magic
of the holiday season, to whom these
words do not bring to mind the vis-
ion of Santa and his reindeer, and
the exciting clatter of hoofs upon
the roof.
Today, the world remembers Dr.
Clement Clarke Moore not as a
scholar, nor as a teacher, but as
author of one of the world's most
beloved Christmas poems.
Thanks to the support of friends old and
new, everyday business is a special pleasure.
Best wishes for the holiday season.

THE WISE MEN. .This montage depicts the wise men
journeying through the desert, following the star that shone
above the manger in which Jesus lay, and bearing their gills
to the new born Messiah. It also shows the shepherds who
saw the star while tending their flocks. The Goodrich Christ-
mas special, "Christ is l3orn," recounts this most famoug of
the Christmas stories.
We're taking this opportunity to say
"Hello" and to thank our customers for their
patronage. Have a merry Christmas!
