CHRISTMAS AT THE HUT

Ii you doubt the existence of a real
old fashioned Santa Claus just ask the
soldiers whose good fortune brought
them through Shoshone Christmas day.
The canteen committee had made elab-
crate preparations by making and I'LL
ing two hundred Christmas socks with
regular Christmas cheer and arranging
an appropriate tree on the depot plat
form. A real Santa Claus was there to
assist the committee meet every train
passing that day and distribute the
gifts to the passing soldiers. 1t was a
most beautiful scene at each train TO
observe the display of the Christmas
spirit by everybody The train men held
each train as long as possible and in
vited Santa Claus to go through the
train and greet each soldier aboard
And the soldiers appreciated the little
attention more than words can tell.
This Christmas tree for the soldiers
was planned and executed by the can
teen committee who solicited the funds
from outside the regular canteen cash
box. All funds were contributed by the
people of Shoshone as their just share
towards making the life of a soldier the
more pleasant BY the way. but few
citizens Of Shoshone realize the great
task being uncomplainingly performed
daily by the canteen committee 1t IS
a work of patriotic love nobly perform
ed without ostentation or display by
devoted little band OF men and women
who aresprcading cheer and good win
among our soldier boys. II you are at
any time called upon to contribute q
pie or few other eatables do it cheer
FULLY and consider the labor and saerl-
Fees being made by those who serve as
vell as those who are being served.
