Many of them brought their own little ones along, and these added to the pleasure of the occasion by their exclanations of astonish ment at the size of the tree. and by their frank longing for the toys and sweets displayed. Some of them had to be told again and again that Santa will come to our house to- morrow morning." before they could be consoled for not being given the dolls and treasures within their reach.
 After Gov. Thomas F. Campbell had made his opening address the children began to file in, amid irrepressible "Ohs" and Ans as they caught sight of Santa Claus and of the gor- geous tree. Salvation Army men and women took them in charge, giving out as nearly as possible the partic- ular present the little one deserved.

 Some of them wanted drums. some dolls, some baseballs. some doll bug gies-there was seemingly an unlim- tied supply of toys to please tiny tots. And some of them were so tiny they could scarcely toddle, being led around by their mothers. or older children
 It was a big eyed silent crowd for the most part--all were too busy looking to say much. and many toe timid to reply even when pressed as to their choice of toys.

 The governor then went down on the floor of the lobby and gave out the first present of the evening which happened to fall to the proud lot of Johnny Cutting. Johnny was dressed in a soldiers suit, which had been made over for him from the uniform of a cousin killed in France. The uniform was sent to Johnny's mother by a friend of the dead soldier. and she, sore pressed for clothing for her boy, made it over into a suit for him. as there were no grown men in the family to wear it.
