Santa Claus Address

Augusta Children

That the letters which reach the

addressed to Santa Claus. will not be
sent to the dead letter office. bringing
disillusion and disappointment to the
trusting little children of this city
that their appeals will be considered,
was assured Tuesday, when it was
announced that Mrs. G. Cannon and
Mrs. J. Manchester Haynes will act
as Santa's secretaries, and will re-
ceive and handle all mail addressed
to st. Nick.
For a number of years this service
was performed by the late Mrs.
CT arles T. Penney, and following her
death the Santa Claus letters last
year were handled by Augusta Lodge,
b. p. o. Elks. This year it seemed
as though the childishly scrawled

practice it. that degree of mental

years deemed necessary on the part

Farm Wage Problem
Agriculture and industry have
much in common in our State. Even
our industrial centers are but little
more than rural communities when
compared with the great industrial
centers of the Middle States. For
agriculture and industry to accom-
plish the greatest good for their re-
! specttve communities and for the
State, there should be a complete
and definite understanding between
the farmer and industrial worker.
Perhaps the most important ques-
| ton confronting the agricultural
workers of today is their inability
