PHIL OSIFER OF
LAZY MEADOWS
By Harry J, Boyle
There's a soft, wet snow falling and.
everything scents to have that Chrit-
massy feel about it. Here in the .coun-
Vy I do 'think that Christnips means
more than in the city, It con more
naturally and with less commercial
fanfare than in the city
Last week I happened to be in. the
pity, It was snowing and seemed to
be just the right kind of a day for a
Pers04 getting out and doing the
Christmas shopping. The first thing
that happened was when a man in the
railroad station came up and tried to
501 me an exploding mouse , „"Ha
ha, ha," he said, "This will be just the
thing to frighten the daylights out of
everybody with on. Christmas morn-
ing." •
I went into a store and a recording
machine was playing a traditional
Christmas number in a sort of jazzed
UP tempo, Every place you looked
there was somebody trying to sell you
something for Christmas and in the big
stores the sales girls looked as if they
had sore feet. Every time you came
to a corner a Santa Claus withoa, big
iron pot would ring a bell in your ear
and scream at you to help "somebody
or something,"
I wandered in to one store trying to
findg some present for Patricia Ann and
Mrs. Phil. It was a ladies' wear store
and 'you should .have seen that mob.
They,pusbed and kicked and screamed
and tried to maim each other, I had
just recovered from a punch in the
stomach when somebody knocked my
hat .off, Then I tried to squeeze down
and pick it up and somebody kicked
me, .1 was glad to get out of the
place with my life intact,
The battle was too much, The poiin.,
try wanderer decided to head for home,
When'l got off the train at the villaige,
Ben Peters who was down to pick up
the mail said, "Merry Christmas Phil."
I walked on down the Main Street.
There was a little bell hanging up in
the window of the butcher shop. Joe
Maguire bad a wreath that lit up hang-
ing in the window of his barber shop,
It shone out over the snow in a pretty
sort of way, in that dusk that comes
down so swiftly on a winter evening.
I stopped in front of the old church
on Main Street. There was music
seeping out in a quiet and pleasant
way. Abigail Peters was practising up
for Christmas. I stood listening to the
old hymns and Christmas melodies and
when I came out of my reverie it was
to discover at least a dozen other
people doing the same thing.
We parted but the greetings that
rang out sounded very sincere.
