Santa Claus At Slaughter Beach
We understand that one of the up
to date grocerymen of Milford, has
invited Santa Claus to visit Slaugh-
ter Beach ON Christmas morning at
8 o'clock. We also understand he
has accepted the invitation and will
be present on the date named. The
pavilion has been decorated and the
children living on the beach will be
invited to meet the old fellow, who
will carry on his back a pack con-
tanning toys and candy for all good

sometimes carries around with him
one of his grandchildren who helps
to distribute the toys and candy

onstantly being manifested toward
sinful and rebelious people.
We are commanded to love one
