The truth Is, am happy to state,
the red-suited, white-bearded bring.
er Of gifts is the Oldest real Ameri-
can among us. He traces his Amer
lean citizenship to the early l600'S
when the Dutch brought him to New
Amsterdam (now New York; on the
Hudson.
His name then was SAINT Nikolass.
pronounced: saint NEE-koelahss.
And this became shortened To SAINT
Klaas, pronounced: saint KLAHSS.
Now, as is usually the case with
foreign names which are brought
to this country, the jovial saints
name took on a strictly American
spelling and became Santa Claus,
which American youngsters ever
since have pronounced SANITY
Claws"
Moreover, no other country In
the world has a Santa Claus-not
even England! The bringer Of gifts
over there Is Father Christmas. He
is as enthusiastically loved by Brit
ish children as Santa Claus Is on
this side of the Atlantic. But he
isn't Santa Claus. No; Santa Claus
is our very own. And, while he Is
supposed to live at the North Pole,
his real dwelling place is right here
in the hearts of all true Americans.
OF course we believe in Santa
Claus, the saint of cheerful giving.
He inspires us to take toys, cloth
ing, and baskets Of food to the
needy. His kind heart swells with
pride when we fill the Golfers Of the
American Red Cross and the Com
munity Chest, and when we buy
Christmas seals and drop coin or
two into Salvation Army kettle on
the corner.
And you may be sure that Santa
stands at the wheel Of every ship
that bears our gifts Of food and
clothing for the peoples Of the war
ravished countries.
Yes, he is real and he Is ours. Have
no doubt of that. And I like to
think that the last letters Of his
name, transposed little, stand for:
Christian Liberality, U. S. A.
A Merry Christmas to you all,
FRANK COLBY.
