Dec. 24 – 1923
     Heavy snowfall loads up the trees – starting out for work – the early morning sunlight on the trees – brilliant, harsh – like something unreal – a new unheard of beauty – it is like the first sunrise after the ice age – buckeye trees with their stiff branches that look like antlers –

     In early morning the Criterion theatre and clock tower covered with snow – a new feeling. The brave optimism of a new snow.
