THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT ranges in the seasons are so receptible here in California the forces of nature do very to put us in a Christmas. However, Santa's arrival is same scant two weeks as it is back East where old snaps at fingertips and the snow falls in gen-hakes. board meetings which are once a month. The council agreed to remind us to come to the school Dec. vote on the proposed school date. next regular meeting will be 13 at 1:30 p.m. when the men will present a Christmas m. After all is said and done—and lately we seem to have to be reminded—Christmas is the celebration of the birth of the Christ child and the traditional exchange of gifts signifies that fact. When detracting or home-sick Eastern folks spout on about the delights of the deep snow, Yule logs, pine trees and frozen ponds, it might be well to borrow a line from the December Reader's Digest to retort that there is nothing in history which suggests Jesus was born in a snow storm! No, the Christmas spirit is not generated by the weather. It comes from the inner man and can burn just as brightly amid polesettias and palms as it can where there is ice and snow. PRACTICAL ASPECT Santa Claus is one of the living symbols of Christmas that the kiddies never want to miss. The jolly old gentleman will slide into Anaheim in a big Christmas parade on Saturday, December 8 at seven p.m. There will be gaily decorated floats to herald his arrival, and the beautiful horses of the Anaheim Riding club will more than make up for the absent reindeer. When Santa rests up from his trip, he will hold open house in his trailer in the downtown shopping district every week day afternoon and evening beginning Saturday, December 8. As a definite aid to Christmas shopping, all the stores will stay open evenings until Christmas starting on this same Saturday. Of course, they will close by 5:30 on Christmas eve. It is to be hoped that the home-maker who is inevitably more harried than usual in the hustle and bustle of the pre-Christmas rush has her shopping done long before the deadline, for the earlier she shops the easier that task and the better the selections. The kiddle movie, free of charge, beginning at 11 a.m. each Saturday morning is a boon to mother, since she may leave the children in the theater for this supervised showing, free to shop for over three hours unencumbered by the small fry. Tickets for the show are given out on preceding Thursdays by 15 of the merchants in the 100 block on West Center.
