SANTA CLAUS A STRANGER.

He Is Officially Unknown to Uncle
Sans Mail Agents.
The postottice department does not
know Santa Claus. The old saint has
no official existence so far as Uncle
Sans mail agents are concerned. This
Claus lives everywhere at the same
time instead of having q single local
habitation like other people 1t is very
sad. but 1t cannot be helped. Letters
which children address to Santa Claus
or Kris Kringle must go straight to the
dead letter office.
Some time ago an effort on behalf OF
The children was made TO induce the
postotiice department TO permit post
masters TO open all letters addressed
TO Santa Claus and turn them over TO
the parents of the child correspondent
or to some local organization having q
Christmas fund TO spend, but the at
torney general for the department rem
iered an adverse decision. holding as
follows
II postmasters were granted authority
TO open all such letters and select those
which they thought proper to deliver to
persons applying for them. there would
be temptation and opportunity for post
masters and other employees to open let

be big dividends. while from the
