Is There a Santa Claus?

Once little girl wrote this letter to
the Editor of the New York Sun:
Dear Editor: | am eight years old.
Some of my friends says that there is
no Santa Claus. Papa says: IF you
see it in the Sun it's so." Please tell
me the truth. Is there Santa Claus?
Virginia 0. Hanlon.
Virginia: Your little friends are
wrong. They have been affected by
the skepticism of a skeptical age.
They will not believe unless they see.
Yes. Virginia, there is a Santa
Claus. He exists as certainly as love
and generosity and devotion exists.
and you know that they abound and
give to your lite it's highest beauty
and joy. Alas, how dreary would be
the world if there were no Santa Claus.
1t would be as dreary as if there were
no Virginias. There would be no
childlike faith then. no poetry, no
romance,sto make tolerable this exist
ence. We should have no enjoyment
except in sense and sight. The eter-
nal light with which childhood fills the
world would be extingushed.
You might get your Papa to hire
men to watch all the chimneys on
Christmas eve to catch Santa Claus,
but even if they did not see Santa
Claus coming down what would that
prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus.
The most real things in the world are
those that neither children nor men

EMPIRE AT STAKE
in A CASE BEFORE
SUPREME COURT
Owing To CareIessness or States In
Extending Land Grants Large Sec
ton Of Kentucky is Involved.

Washington, Oct. 29.-An empire
larger than the entire state of Della
ware or the Island of Porto Rico. living
In the State of Kentucky, is the
prize at stake in the Supreme Court
OF the United States. Presentation
OF the controversy to the Supreme
Court yesterday in oral arguments
VIII reveal an unusual story in the
western advance of American civiliza-
ton.
| Owing to the carelessness with
which Virginia is said to have issued
grants just after the Revolutionary
War to the unsurveyed and little
known lands in what is now Eastern
kentucky, greatest confusion has re-
suited as to the true owners of the
land in the twenty eastern counties
OF that commonwealth. To add to
this confusion, it is said Kentucky
did little better than the mother state.
Virginia, in the first years of her his
TORY. AS a result additional blank
et' grants made by the new state are
now challenged.
In all. about $4,000 acres of land
are said to lie under the doubtful
title to these blanket" grants. OF
this amount the Eastern Kentucky
Coal Land Corporation, Of which G.
B. Hillhouse is accredited with being
chief stock owner, claims title to half
a million acres.
On the other hand 100000 citizens
OF the State of Kentucky have en-
tered these lands. Claimants under
the blanket" grants call them SQUAT
ters." The attorney general of the
commonwealth of Kentucky has ap-
peared in the Supreme Court to as
sert in defense of their claim of title
that they are the people who have
built up the state, and erected a COM
monwealth, its municipalities and in
ternal Improvements.
