Most youngsters think Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
has been around forever . just like Santa Claus
Actually, Rudolph was “born" in 1939 in a Chicago
department store' The brainchild of Robert May, an ad copy
writer for Montgomery Ward, Rudolph started out as an
illustrated poem, 2.4 million copies were handed out nation
wide that year In 1947, Johnny Marks set the poem to music,
but no one wanted to record it Then m 1949, Gene Autry
recorded the song, which zoomed to the top of the charts
Three hundred different recordings and eighty million
" i , records later, Autry’s “Rudolph” is second
on| y t 0 Bing Crosby’s "White Christmas” as
i 1 the best-selling record of all time
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
' "L y ou 3° d°wn in history!

EARffiKISE
Here's a last-minute gift
idea. Give them daylight
on a dark winter day! The
new super-compact fluores
cent light bulbs reduce ener
gy use by 75%, they’re small
er, so they fit in most house
hold lamps, and they now
come in soft or bright light.
The bright light, unlike most
fluorescents, delivers more of
the full spectrum of light
allowing you great energy
savings without that ghostly
blue glow. They're available
from Seventh
