Bruin TwizzIers

Two youngsters set out for ice
skating fun one day. They were
youngsters who lived up North, so
that the lake near which they lived
was completely and solidly frozen
over. They spent some time chasing
one another around and then played
several games with other youngsters.
After tiring of this they decided
TO race each other. One of them
was enough smarter than the other

Vexing Question: " Is There
A Santa?" Is Really Simple

, gifts has not had his passport hon.
ored. haven't found out yet wheth-
er or not he Is in good standing.
And little by little, realists all
over the world are frowning
down the silly CD tables of magic
that tend to fix wtehful thinking.
This is done by many who are
not sympathetic in any way to
either the swastika or the ham,
mer-and-sickle. They simply think
1t is common sense, or rather un-
common good sense, to tell their wee
folk that Papa and Mama are the
sources Of all good things.
have never seen any harm in
Santa Claus. I always loved the
dear old man, and still do. Why
shouldn't personified kindness come
my way In the deep year when
everything Is dreary and spring so
far away?
I have never thought for a
moment that this purveyor of
gifts IN any way conflicted with
the birthday Of the Christ Child.
Any legend that continues as per-
sistently as this one about Santa
Claus must have some basic rea-
son for Its existence.
But Betty is waking UP, and
this Is the time, then. to tell her
the truth. Santa Claus only comes
once a year. His influence Is not
unlimited. He has been good for
me. I think he Is good for others,
this saint the children have all to
themselves.
