“Merry Christmas! 7 “Out
upon Merry Christmas!
What’s Christmas time... but

doubtedly this year we will
be spending more money
and getting less for it than
ever before. _ if

truly believe that:you can get
through the festive season
without the latest space-age
‘video game, then you may
want to check out some of
the ideas and suggestions
that the North Vancouver
District Library has put
together for the holidays.
