The Rented Christmas
Based on the Short Story By J. Lillian Vandervere Author(s):
Norman C. Ahearn
Yvonne Ahearn
John Dale hasn't enjoyed a "real Christmas" for years. So, on the spur of the moment, he decides to "rent" a Christmas from Anne Weston, who owns the local rent shop. Anne is at first flustered with the requirements: a tree with presents, Christmas carols and also a wife and five children. Anne feels she has solved the problem of a Christmas family by calling the actors' guild. But the young actors come down with the measles so she turns to the local orphanage. When the guild can't locate a "mother," Anne steps in to play the role herself. The story of how John Dale's rented Christmas turns into a new life for all concerned makes this a warm story for the holiday season.
