Up to date the school committee haze not secured a success or to Mir. Holmes. II is said that tie plan is to set a lower priced man For the place, which 1t is intimated~can be, done without lowering the present standard of efficiency of the local schools. l. is probable that arrange me4t wal be made with William IT.

Perry can supervise the schools of both adioin- ing towns. MT. Perry substituted for A1r, Holmes while he was taking special course that brought with 1t a college degree. and is therefore fla miliar with all that pertains to the schools of Westerly. Just as soon IS Ar Perry completed his sub work in Westerly the schools of Stonington were consolidated into one district, just as they are in Westerly and Mr Perry was chosen supervisor.

Santa Claus
ORIGINATED

CANTA CLAUS is no relation to 81
= Nicholas, though his name is OF
ten COMPOUNDED with that OF the
holy patron Of children.
Santa Claus is sort OF modern
and somewhat pagan saint. He is jolly,
as if he lived well, and always smiles.
His name came originally from the
Dutch. who had some difficulty i'll say
ing st. Nicholas-or st. Nicholaus, as
they spell it-and so shortened it to
saint, or Santa Claus, the last word be-
ing in part the last syllable of the
saints name.
Santa Claus is better known in
America perhaps than in any other
country lie has no place in any list
of saints, though his sole business is
doing coed.
He is believed to live at the north
pole, though Peary saw nothing of him
there He travels with RENDERS.
Kriss Kringle or Kriss Kinkle is a
name sometimes given Santa Claus,
This comes from careless speech on
the part of the Germans, just as the
name of Santa Claus comes from the
careless Dutch.
In German Christ Kindlein means
Christ Child, the giver of all gifts.
