AND ITS THE DAY AFTER

And yesterday was Christmas, so this must be the day after. And it was some day in all re- spects-even to the weather which was Christmasy.
 And father played with the toys while son looked on, then the lat ter decided the gree. outdoors was his real playfield.
 And mother, whose work is never done, took a spare moment off to see if any stitches had been dropped from daughters doll dress, swept out the snow tracked in by youngsters who visited to view the tree and presents, and kept right on basting the turkey, getting the dinner ready then serving it.
 And all kinds of sledS and skis were given runs on the hills.
 And knives were sharpened as the head of the house could do a good job in carving.
 And many parents decided that hereafter they would stay up all night if children are going to get up before daybreak, turn on the lights and inspect contents of stock ipgs hung up and numerous gifts on the tree and under it = then tstart to play.
 1 And from now until after New Years the refuse collector is going to have his loads overcrowded with abandoned Christmas trees, wreaths and piles of wrapping paper, empty cardboard boxes and decorations. l And for the milk man, yesterday was just another day and when he returned to the milk station, discov- cred he had forgotten to deliver that extra pint of cream or other extra order, had to go back.
 And the messenger boys at the Radio Office decided that one half of the world sent greetings to the other half and they had to deliver them.
 1 And even Fidos were remembered
 with a bunch of weiners or a large bone, extra for the day. 1 And today it is warmed up turkey | or other fowl, more left-overs for
 tomorrow, creamed on toast and | soup from the bones.
 l And tiren clerk awoke, sighed lgreetings of the day and turned over
 for another continued snooze | And the taxi drivers agreed that
 Christmas Eve and Christmas Day
 was some busy and cash custom CTS were in most respects liberal. And the telephone girls were busy
 so busy connecting greeting parties
 that they almost said Merry Christ
 mas" instead of Number Please. j And they also agreed that there never were so many lights showing
 on the switchboard at one time. And the chefs in the various plac-
 es decided that Christmas Eve was E just another eve to busy day as 2 they had to be up bright and early as usual and get the start on the extra menus as well as serving the ham an. to the early conner. And the transfer men and oil men
 unanimously decided that never be-
 fore had so many patrons declared
 they were just out or did not have
 enough fuel on hand to last over the day. so deliveries may to be made up to late Thursday night. ( And even the arrangements oi
