Jingle all the way! O! What fun it is to ride in Although it says not a word about Christmas, the song, "Jingle, Bells," is now a famil- iar part of the holiday season. The spirited description of "Dashing thro' the snow, in a one-horse apen sleigh" con- jures up visions of the old- fashioned Yuletide nearly ev- eryone remembers -- or likes to think he remembers. Usually it is thought of as ~Jingle/Bells," but early copies of the song show that the title was realiy meant to be "Jingle, Bells" -- with a comma added to make it a command to the «a one-horse open sleigh!" bells to go into action, Both the melody and lyrics were written by James Pier- pont, who was the son of a minister and who ran away to sea at the age of 14 Pierpont wrote the sgng in the late 1850's, according to Encyclopedia Americana. He was then living in the Boston suburb of Medford where, at the time, the only piano in the entire village was located in the parlor of Simpson's Tav ern. It was there Pierpont picked out the "Jingle, Bells" melody Wishing you and yours a happy holiday. Levinson's Drygoods Mr. and Mrs. S.
