Holiday Message
"Good morning, this is Mr. Carver speaking. As you know, this is the last day of school before the holidays, and, as principal of the high school, I am called upon to make the traditional holiday greeting to the student body. What I have to say is this. While you are enjoying the holidays, giving and receiving gifts, visiting with friends and relatives, and ringing in the New Year, take a moment to think about what these holidays symbolize -- 'Peace on Earth' and 'Brotherhood Among Men.'
"One other announcement this morning. There will be an air raid drill following the first period this morning."

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.
I like that. It's very much of its time. I can almost imagine it being used as a gag on the Smothers Brothers show -- and yes, that's a compliment!
