Description: Downtown Calumet is dressed for the occasion as the Christmas shopping season gets under way. Several hundred dollars worth of additional street trim was purchased this year by businessmen to help brighten and heighten the gaiety of the season. Giant ornaments and large lighted bulbs criss-cross intersections, while candles glow from lamp posts. [Image of the downtown area at Christmas time. The Merchants and Miners Bank thermometer indicates it is 26 degrees. Other business store fronts such as the Office Shop and a barber shop are shown.]
