Synopsis

Short Comedy / The Benton home is in a frenzy: the turkey is the wrong size, Bunty's new formal has been improperly altered, Aunt Margaret arrives too early, and Mr. Benton is frantic because of the Christmas decorations.

Each year, the city gives a prize for the best decorations, and Mr. Benton and his neighbor are in such a feud over the matter that only a miracle can stop them.

In desperation, Bunty and Bob plan a miracle of their own -- resulting in the merriest Christmas in years.
