In Washington, Woodward & Lothrop brought to life The Night Before Christmas, with sleeping children, animated sugar plums, Santa and his prancing steeds. In Denver, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer wept giant tears at Daniels and Fisher Stores Co., and the May Department Stores Co. built Santa's toy factory for the city's youngsters. At Detroit's J. L. Hudson Co., a delightful doll named Christmas Carol clutched...
