A Puzzle to Tommy.

dearly love the Christmas time, when
Santa Claus comes down,
With rosy cheeks and snowy beard and
long and furry gown,
And bearing on his dear old back all
sorts and kinds of toys
To give away for nothing to the little
girls and boys.
With tops and drums and dolls and
trains, and all the other things
That every. Christmas in his bag the
good old fellow brings;
But there's one thing that puzzles me
in quite an awful way;
Poor papa always says he's "broke,"
just
after
Christmas
day.

Now, "broke" means when you've got
no money in your pocket, and
Though I've tried hard to work it out,
Just can't understand
Why papa should be in that fix around
the Christmas cause
lie surely saves an awful lot through
dear old Santa Claus.
Why, think of all the money that he'd
have to spend for toys
If there weren't any Santa Claus for
