SANTA CLAUS
GETS ACTIVE
JOLLY OLD ELF PREPARING FOR
A LIVELY TIME IN THE GEM
CITY OF THE PLAINS.
Will Do His Full Share Toward Max
ing the World Better and Brighter
This Year-Programs for the Pres
byterian and West Side Children
To Be Rendered Tonight.

Santa Claus has always been a re-
markably busy old dear, and this year
he seems to have been wo- king over
time, burning the midnight aurora
borealis in his North Pole venue
workshop. He will be along all right
tonight, having unloaded a generous
supply of nice things for the children
of the Catholic church last night and
will visit the good little Presbyterians,
German Lutherans, Scandinavian
Lutherans and Methodists tonight. To
morrow night he will pay a special
visit to the Swedish Mission church
M on Tuesday night will do all sorts
of nice things for the little Episcopal
ians. Monday night he will have time
t" devote to the little Baptists. so that
a. tod there is going to be plenty to
keep him in remembrance for the next
few nights. 1t may be that Christmas
coming on Sunday makes it a little
harder for him, but Santa Claus is not
one OF your knockers, and if he gets
it a little hard one year he will make
up for it some other, and these Sun
day Christmases do not come often
enough to cause him much loss of
sleep. The Presbyterians will have a
nice time tonight at the Grand Army
hall and the West Side Sunday school
will meet at the West Side church for
a lively time. Following are the pro
grams prepared for the evening:

pleasure to the ladies of the Altar so

cathedral and the room was crowded
with the happy little people and their

boughs. A creditable program was
presented by the children, although
this feature was somewhat shortened
