Violet was such a sweet little girl at first, wasn't she? That seems long ago now, but it's been less than three years since then.
In the first strip here we have another case of Charlie Brown being thrown out of Violet's house. Until now, usually Violet forgets what made her angry before C.B. is evicted or long gone, but not in this case. In the second strip she takes naked advantage of Charlie Brown's lack of backbone, and doesn't even have the venom to make an evil smile about it. It's just a business translation for her. She wants what Charlie Brown has, so it becomes hers. Wow.
It's difficult to feel sorry for C.B. in that one. It's not like she threatened him or anything!
Charlie Brown's hat in the first strip is rather stylish.

Christmas Eve, 1951: Please Deposit Presents On Doormat
This is another Calvin-like scheme, but more importantly to us, this joke prefigures some of Linus' obsession over the Great Pumpkin.
