A Presidents Poor Protection.
White House,
Nov. %, 1903.
DEAR KERMIT:
1t was very sad at Uncle Gracie's
funeral; and yet lovely too, in a way.
for not only all his old friends had
turned out, but all Of the people con-
nected with the institutions for
which he had worked during so many
years also came. There were a good
many of the older boys and employees
from the Newsboys' Lodging House
and the ~Orthopaedic ~Dispensary, etc.
Uncle Jimmy possessed a singnlarly
loving and affect-onate nature, and |
never knew one who in doing good
was more careful to do unostenta-
tiously. 1 had no~idea how much
he had done. Mother with her usual
thoughtfulness had kept him steadily
in mind while l have been governor
and president; and 1 now find hat he
appreciated her so much. her con-
slant remembrances in having him
on to visit us on different occasions.
It was a lesson to me, for 1 should
probably never have thought Of 1t
myself: and of course, when n
does not do what one ought to, the
excuse that one erred from thought
1~essness instead of wrong purpose Is
of small avail.
The police arrangements at the
church were ex~asperating to a de-
gree. There were fully five hundred
policemen in the streets round about,
Just as il there was danger of an at
tack by a ferocious mob; and yet
though they had throngs of police
men inside. too, an elderly and harm
less crank actually got inside with
them to present me some foolish me-
mortal about curing the German m
peror from cancer. Inasmuch as
what we needed was, not protection
a mob, but a sharp lookout

Old Santa is coming now
And quick as a ash at the fireplace
He m but how?
He's not black or anything,
He knows a way,
He's pructiced and practiced
For many a day.
Way up in the Northland
Where he has built his homo.
Is his great big workshop
That's where the Joys come from.
They say he's so old,
He was born ages ago,
He has never changed a bit y
His hair has always been as white
as snow.
I've wondered and wondered
And can it be true,
That Santa was ever a child
Like me or like you.
When he was a boy
Who was Santa them
I've been taxing my brain
From end to end.
Dear old Santa, when a boy
Must have been very sad.
With no Santa to come.
Like all of us have.
But now he's our Santa
And we are so glad.
Wen never want TO lose him
With the things that We lave.
So when you hear the reindeer pranc-

And be glad hat he's our Santa

And that he is the one who brings
