I've said this in past years, so I guess it's time to say it again.
Every year I hear complaints that the Christmas season is being
rushed and starting earlier than ever before. Back in the mid-1950s,
I remember being with my parents in a department store shortly before
Halloween and seeing Christmas decorations. When I remarked on it, I
was told that the season was being rushed this year.
It may seem as though the season starts earlier each year, but if
that were true, by this time, we would be starting the new Christmas
season in January.
