Without Santa Claua th world would te un bearably dreary; xm who hare doubted hia exintence have rtaJIy died, to leave luch a place. But they were mUtaken. If there were no Santa Claua it would be aa though Cod had forjroc And. if CoJ forgot, there mijtht be flowers with no sweet ness and no color; there might be no flowers at all. Birds would not put on their brightest feathers In the Spring and would tarxrt to sir. No Sinta Claiu! As soon think of there beinff no sun. Without Santa Ctaus we would have no pictures, no music, no laughter. And when, in these holiday times, we see funny old men playing the part jut as an actcr pretends he Is really George Washington, to make his play seem real it rives us more proof that there really is a Santa Claua, because we grown folks know that the men who are playing Santa Claua are doing it to bring happiness to others; to melt bard hearts and make them, too, believe in Santa Claus. And Santa Claus always smile. There never was a child so timid as to cry at the sight of this jolly old man. And he smiles because he just feels like smiling. Hia duty, his work. Is to make others happy and to make others happy is the surext way to make yourself happy. Write to Santa Claus; think of Santa Claus; love Santa Claus as you love the dearest thing in the world and well you may, for Santa Claus is Lore. Credit to Gimbel Brothers, New York.
