Thus shall we have the kingdom,

A modern Santa Claus truly v as
George w. Teasdale, one of the early
settlers of Oakland, California, and
when he died, 23 years ago, there
was found a provision in his will
which will ever keep his memory
green among the school children of
Los Gatos. The sum of 5000 was
ordered TO be deposited in the bank
at San Jose, the annual interest from
which was to be drawn on Memorial
day and invested in candy, which
would be equally distributed among
the boys and girls attending the
public schools at Los Gatos. The
only request made in connection
with the bequest was that his little
friends would see that his grave
was never neglected or destroyed
On every Memorial day the children
cover the Teasdale grave with the
choicest flowers. For the first few
years after Mr.. Teasdale's death the
exact terms of the will were carried
out, and the annual interest. over
$50, furnished a sufficient supply
for the youngsters. But the juve-
nile population of Los Gatos, under
the benefcent influence of the glo-
rious climate of California, grew so
rapidly that the annual amount was
found insufficient to sweeten the
palates of the host.
