And there I am,
with that dumb round face and...
:01:03
that stupid stocking cap.
:01:05
But no matter. Christmas was on its way.
:01:09
Lovely, glorious, beautiful Christmas...
:01:12
around which the entire kid year revolved.

Downtown Hohman was prepared
for its yearly bacchanalia of...
:01:42
peace on earth and good will to men.
:02:35
Higbees' corner window
was traditionally a high-water mark...
:02:38
of the pre-Christmas season.
:02:42
First nighters, packed earmuff to earmuff,
jostled in wonderment...
:02:47
before a golden tinkling display...
:02:50
of mechanized, electronic joy.
