Carol Perkins: Christmas Gatherings Previous Column: Hills of Snow By Carol Perkins When I was a little girl, the happiest time of the year was Christmas. The town was magical, with decorated windows and the tall Santa in the Western Auto. Boys longed for bikes displayed up front and girls hoped for dolls sitting on shelves. Santa brought all the gifts. The only other gift was from my grandmother Reece. Everyone seemed happy at Christmas. Glasgow was our big-time shopping town, even though Edmonton had many stores. A prized gift for a man came from Jolly's Men's store. Mama sometimes bought Daddy a hat or a sweater there. MaBettie shopped at the National Store. She bought shirts for men, blouses for women, trucks for boys, and dolls for girls. Teens got sweaters. Stores wrapped presents back then. A week before Christmas, Daddy combed the woods for the best tree, dragged it through the field, and stood it up in the yard for Mama's approval. Sometimes he had to go back for another one.
