Santa Claus Santa Claus is in quandary, For he don't know what to make For the children of the islands That our boys from Spain did take. He has scratched his head and wondered Ever since that Spanish fight Thinking what he woulI leave these tots On his trip of Christmas night. Veocipedes they could not ride, For trey have no shoes to wear; The prickly pedals hurt their feet, So they haven't any there. It is too hot for clothing, too, So of course he can't send that. The only covering that they wear Is big Manila hat. Of course, they've never seen our toys, And would be afraid of them But there's thing that they can play tune an a bamboo stem. 'Tis tune that is familiar To every true Yankee boy A tune that fills our hearts with gee And makes us bubble with joy. Now think thatyou should guess it, For it's Yankee Doodle Doc; On their bamboo stems they play it, Though their notes are not all true.

5SSolOAo So let Santa give them music
 Or Yankee Doodle Dandy And give them swords and guns to bear
 And feed them U. s. candy. They want our country's protection
 To help them against the powers; They need some nation to cheer them,
 To guard them in troubled hours. So we would suggest to Santa
 A sword, fl or gun; Be given to all the natives
 Who are over twenty-one. Uncle Sam can get the soldiers
 Who will show them how to aim, And with gun, and proper training
 They'd build up nations fame. We only make the suggestion,
 Santa knows better than we; But i've them something practlcal-
 Something 10 make them all free. If you ask these dark-sk inned natives For their greatest wish of all, They will ask 10 be nation,
 Though 1t be so very small. So let's send note to Santa = And ask him to bring them things To help them build up country
 Where the bell of freedom rings.
