Who remembers these costumes from the 1970s or early 80s? Can you smell the plastic of those masks and feel your hot breath coming back on your face as you struggled to breath through the two tiny nose holes?

Every year it seems folks complain about how early businesses start promoting Christmas stuff. Every year the complaint continues to include the "back in my day, Christmas wasn't promoted until just before Thanksgiving" statement.
Well, hate to be a buster of memories, but we found this Christmas ad in the October 30, 1947 edition of the Cass County Democrat Missourian.

A sampling of 1935 poetry from Cass Countians.
Wouldn't it be great if the local papers had a poetry corner again?
