1953: "Christmas shopping is beginning in earnest. All of our store are very busy. North 1700, South 1500. I worked 7 hours today. This evening to the Mode to see Desert Song starring Kathryn Grayson, Gordon Mac Rae, Raymond Massey; also A Christmas Carol starring Alistar Sim as Scrooge." [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
1956: "Don (son) is over to the house to pick up Christmas tree ornaments. He tells me he and Eddie (Wesiheipl) worked until 11:30 last night. I really got a raking over the coals from Fred Baumgartner today, one that I won't forget for a while. My suggestion for carrying more green stamps at this time of year met with a very stern rebuff. Hence forth I better keep my suggestions to myself." [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
