The Christmas Gift of Conscience and Fairytale Night
A Christmas vignette begins with a moral about giving to the needy and ends with children Sally and Jerry enjoying a Snow Fairy dance that fades to a waking Christmas party as their mother arrives for treats. The tale blends a moral poem by Tena G. Andrews in Kansas City with a dreamlike children’s fantasy sequence.
