Just a reminder for everyone traveling this holiday season. Be safe, be kind. Have a great holiday.

As millions of people head out to be with their families this holiday season, we thought this would be an appropriate message to share. This essay was published in the November 1955 issue of B and O Magazine. Please travel safely and enjoy the holiday season.
