It is to be noted with regret that the
mystery which once hedged in old San
Ia Claus is becoming sadly battered
around the edges. As a realistic person
he does not appeal to the youngsters OF
this generation In the way he did to
their forefathers, and it is almost GER
tain that score of years hence he will
have ceased to acquire any Importance
at the Christmas season. Along with
the yule log, the "waits" and the mis-
tletoe he is passing away, much as the
fact is to be regretted. Young America
is nothing il not practical, and he will
shortly refuse to recognize Santa Claus
as an entity in his merry Christmas. He
is altogether too well acquainted with
| the properties of the American dollar.
