 Then Arctic Chief Draper took things in hand and his little address of welcome was interrupted by the jingling bells of Santa Claus outside. He was admitted through a window just back of the tree as the chimney he afterwards explained-was found too small for so large a package as he carried. He dragged his package down the ladder and was welcomed by the Arctic Chief.
