To The Kernel Readers
No season of the year presents more opportunities for
unselfish service than does Christmas. It is my earnest hope
that you will have the opportunity to help others and thereby bring the real spirit of Christmas to everyone. May this
be a joyous holiday season and may the year of 1957 be a
successful and beneficial one to you.
