Christmas At An Lac Orphanage Amid War
A Vietnamese father brings four children to An Lac near Saigon for Christmas. Madame Vu Thi Ngai founded the home in 1946 and relies on government funds plus American aid. Miss Betty Moul raises funds and brings donations each year, including a prior ice cream spread and a full-time doctor. The piece also notes Hallmark research on Christmas origins and historical bans in England and Massachusetts.
