Vol. 96, No. 61 & /2 Bbectecioâ€"feâ€"iadeciaâ€"facGiaâ€"fe in im n im in in ts g6 i URinr 'GHE hotels and colleges will be empty next week; the stations and airports will be full. On the railroads, overworked diesels will be growling away. You‘ll be putting extra leaves in the dining room table, for Judy gets home from school tomorrow and Paul has just wired he‘ll be on the next train. ~ This is the wonderful, big, bright, annual December Merryâ€"Goâ€" Round . . . a wedding, a birthday, the 24th of May and Labor Day all gloriously rolled into one. It‘s suitcases and snowâ€"beingâ€"tracked in; it‘s mistletoe and gift packages and excitement and people. It‘s HOME FOR CHRISTMAS! In a very special, very Canadian way, it‘s actually Christmas itself . _. . because when folks bob around from Halifax to Vancouver like crossing the street for a paper, it‘s bound to make Christmas different. Bound to give it a flavor of a fabulous journey, a journey through space and through time. Yes, those locomotive bells you‘ll be hearing along with the sleigh bells; for we‘re all coming home. Home to the place we lived as a kid or maybe to the town that opened its heart and adopted us, We‘re coming off the road, away from the place that‘s just a job, back from the army camp, home from college. We‘re coming home to wake up in the morning and look at the sunlight shining on four familiar walls and at the moment to wish that time would stand still forever. We‘re coming home to touch our yesterdays . .. and then dream about them for all our tomorrows. Home for Christmas? OF COURSE, Christmastime means coming home . . . for all of us everywhere . . . actually or in spirit. How else could we seek that magical something we always magically find just before we have to go away again? It‘s the reason we come back year after year. It‘s why it‘s worth coming back, coming home for Christâ€" mas. From the ends of the earth. Yes, even from Punkeydoodle‘s Corners or Timbuctoo. oc WATERLOO CHRONICLE Waterloo, Ontario Friday, December 19, 1962 ...
