Santa Claus listens carefully to the wish of a little boy at the Monmouth Christmas Tree lighting. He will be busy
this week in the countdown to Christmas — just five days away.
DEAR SANTA
Kids assure Santa Claus they’ve been good this year
have cleaned poop in my
yard. I hope I get an Ameri-
can girl doll.
Dear Santa,
My sister wants a new
Elsa Barbie or some legos
that are princess.
Love,
Olivia
Hannah
Dear Santa,
All I want for Christmas is
dream tents, anything Ninja
Turtle if it moves on its own
and anything remote con-
trol as long as its not too lit-
tle kiddy. I was thinking of
something like a remote
control boat you put on the
water and control. I was
also wanting some video
games. The kind where you
plug in the controller into
the TV. There is one thing I
have always wanted though,
the imajipen. It’s like a 3-D
pen that writes in air. Me
and grandma need game
boards so I/we don’t get
bored. And finally, some 4-
wheeled skates (roller
skates) and walkie-talkies.
It’s a long list, no matter
what you give me, I at least
want the imajipen, the
video and board games, the
skates and dream tents
(most wanted).
And of course, it wouldn’t
be my letter without it, the
Question the Year: Why do
you spend your whole year
making children exactly
what they want? I mean,
Christmas is about Jesus,
not toys?
Sincerely,
Natasha
Dear Santa,
I have been good this
year. I would like a puppy
for Christmas.
Your friend,
Aleah
Dear Santa,
You are a good person. I
want a hoverboard. I have
been nice to my friend.
From,
Kaydn
Dear Santa,
I should get presents be-
cause I help clean my room.
I also am nice.
From,
Tanya
Dear Santa,
I have done my chores. I
May you have a
Merry Christmas
and a Blessed
New Year!

T
he purpose of religion as revealed from the
heaven of God’s holy Will is to establish uni-
ty and concord amongst the peoples of the world;
make it not the cause of dissension and strife. The
religion of God and His divine law are the most
potent instruments and the surest of all means for
the dawning of the light of unity amongst men. The
progress of the world, the development of nations,
the tranquility of peoples, and the peace of all who
dwell on earth are among the principles and ordi-
nances of God. Religion bestoweth upon man the
most precious of all gifts, offereth the cup of pros-
perity, imparteth eternal life, and showereth im-
perishable benefits upon mankind.”

Dear Santa,
I hope you love the cook-
ies and milk!
Can I have fall makeup
kit (Mary Kay), those razor
shoes (the ones with
wheels), baby alive (crying),
hover craft (blue), gun
(camo blue) and for my
mom and dad to be happy.
Please write back.
Love,
Ellen
Dear Santa,
I was wondering if I could
get a pooping baby alive
that comes with a dress and
food and a baby carrier and
a binky. I was also wonder-
ing if I could get a kitten
that is black and white with
blue eyes and maybe you
could get me boots that go
up to your knee.
From,
Savanah.
P.S. I was also wondering if
you could wake me up so I
can see your reindeer.
