old SANTA CLAUS
WILL BE ON HAND
Will Nee, Children at Library
on Friday.

On next Friday Santa Claus will be
at the Carnegie library to greet the
little ones, to receive gifts from them
for the poor of Americas, and to lis
ten to the stories that are told about
his own good deeds to the children of
this and other lands.
The real joy of the glad Christmas
tide is in the giving more than in the
receiving, las deepest pleasure lies
i'll the thought that happiness has
been brought 10 some one who has not
been Blessed with much of the good
things of earth.
The thought occurred to the libra
nan that it would be we'll to take adj
vantage of the weekly storytelling
hour TO lay stress Mpon the spirit that
underlies the holiday season To this
end arrangements We're made for d
Santa CLAUS who will be on hand to ac-
cept gifts from the little folks, to be
turned over to the Ladies' Benevolent
Society for distribution among the
needy. A child can bring any small
article, a cup of sugar, cup of flour,
pound of coffee, "a little package OF
tea, any little evidence of that love that
should mark all at this season of the
year.
There will be the telling of stories
that wild be appropriate to the occa-
sion. Miss Floyd Fort has volunteered
to assist and will tell, with all the
charm of her own gracious personality,
some of the sweetest of Christmas
tales. Then old Santa will appear,
robed i'm the garments he wears ON his
trip down from the North Pole, and
the children will smother him with
their little offerings that will help to
make the Christmas season one of
greater joy than it would otherwise be
to some of the poor of the city.
The idea is a pretty one and par
ents generally will doubtless lend
their aid in intoxicating in the children
the greatest lesson of the holiday sea
son, that of affectionate sympathy for
the distressed and the unfortunate.
