THESE TWO TYPES BEAT SANTA CLAUS TO IT
CHRISTMAS SPIRIT HELPED THEM OUT

Because the thoughts of kiddies
run Christmasward now, two little
tykes who knew Santa Claus wasn't
going to stop in at their house
roamed down to department store
in the loop a couple of days ago and
into the toy department, and before
they left the department each had
appropriated to himself a coveted
toy.
The watchful eye of the store de-
tective had not missed the childish
theft and the little tykes were taken
to the superintendent Office, the
coveted toys taken from them and
they were permitted to go home that
night with the detective, to be taken
into the juvenile court the next day
But one of the advance agents of
Santa Claus called to see why the
little tykes hadn't attended school
and the tale was unfolded. The next
morning the three, the two little
tykes and the advance agent of San
ia Claus, went to the department
store and convinced the superinten-
dent that, since it was the boys first
ofense and the prospect of a tOyless
Christmas had brought it about, the
spirit of forgiveness without a
pound of flesh" would be the proper
spirit.
Then the two little tykes were CIV
en- a lecture on the evil of coveting
that which didn't belong to them, and
after their eyes had filled with tears
OF sorrow they overlooked with tears
of Joy because the advance agent of
Santa Claus bought them the toys
they had coveted.
The advance agent of Santa was
truant officer and this is one of
the stories that show the human side
of the truant officers work. At this

A few days ago a truant officer

children and nothing in the house to
eat and not a particle of heat be-
