Nov. 24. (Special to the Tribune) Messages received today; from the Itetail Trade Committee of the" Medford t'huj.iber of Com merce, at the headquarters of San ta Clans, indicate that extensive reparations are underway in the southern Oregon city for the en tertainment of tho Christmas Saint on his proposed visit to Medford. on December 4th. .Messages re ceived from tho committee early this week: stated that tho people of Medford were anxious to have Santa visit them, but it was not thought that the trip could be mado until today, when it was found that there were amnle fa cilities there for landing' Santa's aeroplane. The message received at 2:00 a. m. today stated that the Med ford airport was udeqtiatc to take care of Santa's largest plane, nnd he announced immediately that preparations would begin for the Ioiik flight from jRlooville to southern Oregon. Santa Claus plans to carry, with him many samples of his toys for free dis tribution to tho children of Med ford and-Jackson county, and has already sent complete lines of samples to many of the Medford stories, where they can bo seen at any time between now and Christinas. Soon after receiving the radio-' from from Medford, Santa sent a return rndlo as follows: Kit.-ill Trade Committee. Aliflfoi-d Chamber of Commerce, .Medford, Oregon. Very sorry thut 1 did not know of your wonderful airport, but the air mull hiis not rc.-tihcil Icluovllln' for some lime. I will be on hand on tho evenl.ig of December.! fotirlh. about ho von o'clock. Tell tho children to watch for myi plune. as I will circle over the city several times before landing lit, the airport. If you have any lara-p searchllubts there, tell them! to pick out the plane so 1 can be! seen. Will send you m6re de tails later. SANTA CLAVS.
