- The sons and daughters of men are
df two classes not the rich or the
poor, not the young or the old, not
liberals or conservatives, nor even
Aristotelians or Platonists, but those
who believe in Santa Claus and those
who do not.
Children are of the first and more
glorious family. Hence they grow;
hence they burst with life. They be
lieve, and r so have faith.that good
comes riding out of the air, with
jingling bells and prancing reindeer,
its pack crammed with gifts, its round
and smiling coachman breathing benev
olence 'and cheeriness and hastening to
fulfill every wish that is dreamed on
dented pillow. Alas! when doubt
creeps in, when the eyes and ears of
the spirit no longer see or hear and
demand comes for physical evidence,
then all the high faculties wither and
pass away.
"' The walls of the prison house tend
to close around the growing child. He
credits the slander that there is no
Santa Claus. " Poison enters into him
and he degenerates into an animal that
merely touches or tastes. Thrice
blessed are they whoare able to keep
an imagination green and lasting and
to subdue or drive away all forces that
would throttle it. The rites of Christ
mas, after all, are mainly for the old
folks, their absence representing the
instinct to keep alive the divinq sparks
ofyouth. A little one that, no longer
petitions good St. Nick is a sad spect
acle; even sadder is theman or woman
to whom his myth has lost its savor
To such when the sun goes down and
the west fades -the heavens fill with no
shining stars.
The period through- which mankind
has passed has been marked by a
duel between those who hope and
those who despair between those who
believe in Santa Claus and those who
do not. Let us rejoice that the quiv
ering balance is now definitely inclin
ing to the better side. Beyoung, be
forever young never has the old text
been more vindicated than in these
days. ' '
Unclogged with prudence and limp
ing with no rheumatism, youth, shout
ing to laggards, "Would you live for
ever?" plunged forward through four
terrible years, furnishing new reasons
for respecting humanity. Then came
the sere and yellow leaf of the stay-at-homes.
They sought to turn off the
fountains of faith. But, happily, their
grip is loosening and the sweet waters
flow again. Whether your youhgster
hangs up stockings or not, don't your
self, Mr. and Mrs. Grown-up, lose your
own credulity.
