HERE IS CHRISTMAS NE WS FROM SANTA CLA US. INDIANA

/ letters the Santa Clals postmaster receives 1 ————

You Should See Mail That Postmaster of Spencer County Town Gets. Coo-jri iht. I tit. XEA Sereicr SANTA CLAUS, Ind., Dec. 17. Is there a Santa Claus? Yes. This is it. It perchance you never heard of Santa Claus before—peri li the thought!—get out an Indiana map and look In the right hand corner of Spencer. County, not far from the Ohio River. It’s right there. In other words, stories that Santa Claus is up at the north pole are nonsense. A general store, which also Is the postoffice, and a milk and cream station and a blacksmith shop, together with ninety-seven Santa Claausians who call this place home, all bear indisputable witness to the contrary. Santa Claus has been here since Christmas, 1855 —and right happily, thank you! "Santa Claua lives here all the time. Just like God,” little Alene Corner, tiniest tot In the Santa Claus school, puts It. Julius Bock staler This brings the story to Julius Bockstaler. He's a spry old man with a ruddy face, friend of the whole Santa Claus populace. Strangely, Bockstaler is the only Santa Claus resident who doesn’t seem to assemble with the rest of the Santa Claus folks each Christmas at the party in the little church on top of the hill. Everybody else Is there, beaming and smiling, and presently old Santa himself makes his appearance in scarlet coat, shining whiskers, glossy boots and all that—but no Bockstaler! Julius, however, know* there Is a Santa Claus. "It’s hard to get the kids to believe In Kris Kringle, nowadays,” he booms in his deep, German voice. “But you can say for me that there

is one. and it’s a good thing for the people of the world. If it weren’t for the Christmas spirit once a year, what sort of world would it be?” Sh-h-h! Suspicion! There is suspicion that removal of the shining whiskers and red coat and fuzzy hat which ihe Santa Claus

mall along about Christmas time you ever saw! He and Bockstaler and “Pop" Lewis sit up late at night sorting out the letters to Santa Claus that pour in from over the land. They answer as many of them as possible—sometimes sending a stick of candy. “Pop” Lewis is one of the Santa Claus old-timers. He is a great friend of Julius Bockstaler. The only night in the whole year that you can lure “Pop” away from his radio is the night of the Christmas party. Emiel Hunter is 15 and the biggest boy in the Santa Claus school. Somebody told him once that all this Santa Claus talk was so much chaff. Emiel was inclined to believe as much. It took little Alene Corner to set him right. “Yes, there is too a Santa Claus,” she shouted at Emiel. “There certainly is! Maybe you don’t see him often, but his spirit is here all the time—just like God’s.” Emiel never said anything against Santa Claus after that. Several young men live In Santa Claus, but only one young lady— Miss Helen Frey, the school teacher. Is she popular? You bet! The very oldest native of Santa Claus is Mrs. John Poeillion, who has been a Santa Clausian for fifty-seven years. She says it’s the best town in America. Some traveling men who “make’’ this part of Indiana have discovered as much, toe. They make special trips to Santa Claus every year to mall their Christmas greetings to their friends and customers.
