This always cracked me up - or at least made me think of how American society has changed. In my collection of DL&W employee magazines, the December issues always had a Christian theme. The first December issue has a full-page cover of a mosaic of Jesus Christ! A cover like this would NEVER fly in today's era of "political correctness."
