celebrated St. Nicholas birthday,
December 6. They visited homes
where there were children Those
who composed the group were E.
Ungen as St. Nicholas; William
Worley as the Sandman, and Joe
Miller as the chauffeur. : They
made the rounds of homes and
delighted the children with, their
antics and make-ups. ',
e While the youngsters were safe,
grown-ups took their chances in
meeting with the sainted trio.
