It has suddenly be- come the pushing time of the year well rushing the streets in the busses and in the stores and restau rants It's hard to proceed without stumbling erec- sets, bocks trains, bals dolls, and musical instruments. Victory House the Green has picked up speed of late Something doing every minute to attract passers-by. Windows featuring dummy packages wrapped in and ribbon with hnt to prospective buyers to what they should purchase Scovs Hayseeders have been circulating about the build ing giving us pokas boogiewooge breakdowns and sweet songs.

A horse-drawn cart IS pumping along easily after tying up midtown traffic for buzzng with activity these days And the steak and chick good if you have time to wait for them It looks spc and span Fulton Park shrubs nicely clipped leaves raked p for the long winter ahead before the buds again burst into bloom Angels candles writing paper cards, cheche and calendars indicative of the end of year the start of another give the onceover to your favorite window day. Goodbye, now!.
