Example Sentences
- "For several years I have been steadily working against this cult of Santa Claus, which I maintain has converted “Christ-mas” into “Santa Claus-mas”."
- "The tempo of all work is being stepped up and the atmosphere of gaiety is being cultivated, sometimes at the expense of overwrought nerves and sacrifices of health. Sometimes this goes to the point of losing the perspective of the real Christmas thought, and we are inclined to turn the Christmas into a carnival of a Santa Claus-mas."
- "One, starting in January each year, folks should buy one or two Christmas presents each month, wrap them, bag them and set them high in a closet; by Labor Day they’d be ready for the big day—no anxiety, no budget woes, no seasonal depression, no problems and the nation’s retailers won’t have to worry about making their annual profits in just one month. They might quit annoying us with their Santa Claus-mas mania. Win-win for everyone."
