those who paid the supreme
sacrifice.
By the way I was speaking
with Santa’s helper the other
day and he advised that
after 25 years he was retir
ing. He said it had been a
rewarding experience. Over
the years he had observed
children, grow into
adulthood and bring their
children to him to be
greeted. Yes, Santa, a
rewarding experience in
deed.
And that’s 30 for this week
- remember - Tact is the
knack of' making a point
without making an enemy.
