A family tale shows children staging a Christmas surprise for their tired parents. Santa arrives to deliver gifts to Mr. and Mrs. Coles while the youngsters have prepared a tree and festive display, offering the entire holiday to their parents who are moved by the thoughtful deed.
Mrs. Carter and her husband welcome Millie, an eighteen year old with no family, to their home. Millie bakes, cleans, and then on Christmas Eve visits neighbors with a basket of gifts. Each recipient returns a present for Millie, sparked by her joy and selflessness.
A feature traces why Correggio's Holy Night and Moore's A Visit From St. Nicholas endure as Christmas classics. It notes Dr W R Valentiner praising Correggio and explains the Moore poem's genesis in 1822 for Moore's daughters, its 1823 Troy Sentinel printing, and Virginia O Hanlon's enduring Santa Claus legend.
The editorial response to Virginia affirms there is a Santa Claus, arguing belief rests on faith, love, and imagination rather than visible proof. It compares skepticism to denying fairies and stresses the enduring magic of childhood and generous spirit.
