Don’t tell her.. but she’s going to have a REAL CHRISTMAS this year ... A great little pal, that wife of mine. She has skimped and saved all year long—made over her old clothes instead of buying new ones—did her own housework—helped me out in every possible way. And she has got so into the habit of accepting hard times, she isn’t expecting anything for Christinas. But I’m going to surprise her. Because even though scrimping may have been the order of the other 364 days in the year, Christmas is the time to change that order—the time to dip into the “rainy day’’ fund to buy presents for relatives and friends.
