If the annual advent of
Santa Claus does nothing else
for us work-a-day grown ups
it turns our thoughts to the
children, brings a little retro
spection of the days of our
childhood and by that much, at
least, humanizes us and puts
us in that humor where we can
mix in with the youngsters and
for a moment see things
through their eyes.
So a hearty welcome is ex-
tended to grown ups as we'll as
to children to see Toyland to-
morrow. Don't forget to point
out to your little youngsters the
funny clowns and the animals
from Jungleland that are to be
found in the aisles on the street
floor. This attraction is worth
a visit to the Christmas Store.
