BARRE STORES IN
YULETTDE ARR4Y
Formal Opening Of Windows Last Eve
ming Was Signal for Assem-
bling Of Large Crowd.

Yuletide, the season of Joy and hap
piness, arrived in Barre officially last
night. AT o'clock the store curtains,
drawn all day while displays were be-
ing arranged, snapped up and sight 60
make the heart of even the most cyni-
cal hop was revealed.
|. 1t was apparent that none Of the
merchants had spared an effort to
make their display the best in the city
and the result was q galaxy Of gifts
rarely seen here. Presents for the
Young ladies and presents for the old,
presents for the young man and pres
cnts for the old and everywhere, OF
course, wealth of joy makers for the
little ones.
The street was thronged long before
the appointed hour for the open
ing and when the curtains raised one
big "0h!p went up. Before each win
dow knots gathered to await the jump
Of the curtain and then the stream
started to move. Up one side Of the
street and down the other it flowed
and slowly but surely Santa Claus
task grew and grew. One woman was
overheard to remark that she had no
idea how many things she really need
ed until she had started a trip along
Main street last night.
And what feast for the young
sters! And they were on hand to re-
ceiye ii too. Hundreds of little ones
pushed their way through the crowds
before each store, fiattened their noses
on the windows and just plain wished
and wished The display of presents
for the children this year is more ex-
tensive than since the war and. of
course, lots of the 1921 youth either
weren't born then or were so small
they didn't care much about what
Santa hauled down the chimney just
as long az he didn't interrupt theii
slnmber.
From the looks of things and the
general sentiment Of the crowds on the
street, the day of rest and leisure for
the merchant is over for at least the
next two weeks. Bright and early this
morning the assault began to gather
impetus, reaching the grand climax on
Saturday night, the 24th, the night
when at II o'clock even the mice will
be peacefully dreaming OF the glori
ons morning to come.
The Christmas trees in buckets
which lined the street added to the gai-
ETY. Of the occasion greatly. Some Of
the stores taking part in the opening
did not have trees on the sidewalk out
in front because they were unable to
obtain them.
