The Twin Reporters

Twin Reporters, Dec. 24, 1936

From The Courier, Dec. 24, 1936

Cliffside, Dec. 21—Hello, Friends. Christmas spirit is in the air and the last minute rush is on. Christmas trees with beautiful lights and lighted candles are gleaming in the windows. To those who have taken the advice to do your Christmas shopping early have something to be thankful for. These Christmas rushes aren’t healthy for you sometimes.

Christmas time is a time when everyone is filled with joy and happiness. And giving is one way in which we can make others happy. At this time of the year let us not forget just what the wonderful gift of God means to us and the world today. There is a gift you can give to God and this is yourself.

Come to Cliffside if you want to see a town that is really doing their part to make Christmas a beautiful thing and happy time.
