SANTA’S GUIDE TAKES WRITER ON SEAL HUNT Animal ‘Shot* With Camera; Story Is 'Written' in Pictures. This Is another of the series of stories Holly perry is senlding The Times from North Poleville. Santa Claus' home by radio. Berry is The Times' correspondent accompanying The Times-Klein-schmidt expedition to obtain movies of Santa Claus. The pictures have been obtained and will be rushed back to Indianapolis and shown to children here. Arctic Exp!prer Capt. P. E. Kleinschmidt is heading the party. BY HOLLY BERRY (Special Correspondent of The Times In Esklmoland) Our expedition party has just returned from an all-day seal hunt and although I am writing this while seated in Santa’s library in front of the brightest grate fire you ever saw, my fingers are so stiff with cold that I hardly can make out the letters. Before I tell you about the hunt, which was very exciting, I must tell you of a funny incident that happened a short time ago. You Indianapolis children almost missed having a story from North Poleville today! It happened this way: Writes Story in Pictures When I got back from the hunt, cold and tired, Wahno, Santa’s chief guide on these hunting trips, noticed how much difficulty I was having in writing with cold fingers that he offered to write my story for me today. I thought it a wonderful idea, so I told him to go ahead and tell Indianapolis children all about the hunt in the words of one of Santa’s little helpers. While I fell asleep before the fire, Wahno wrote the story. When he finished, he woke me and held it up very proudly. As I told you before, these little men do not write like we do—they draw wonderful little pictures of what they want to say. And here was this story, all written out in pictures! I knew it was impossible to send this over the radio and still I hated to hurt Wahno’s feelings. So he doesn’t know but what I am sending his story to you today. “£now Flowers” Deep I have tried to follow Wahlo’s story exactly, and this is what he wrote as near as I can write it in English: “Snow flowers fell all day. (These people call snowflakes ‘snow flowers.’) The sun behind heavy gray clouds looked no brighter than the moon. Underfoot the snow flowers were piled deep as our noses in places. “We had to watch where we stepped or we might go in up to our red noses, in other places, where the wind blew hard, the ice was very clear and smooth—like a mirror. “We found a seal 14,987 steps (see flow accurate these little men are!), from the palace. He was running and flopping up and down on the ice. His black fur was very shiny and beautiful. We shot him. Os course ,not with a gun—that would be cruel, because the seal had never done us any harm—but with our camera—one like Santa gives to boys and girls, sometimes. We came back to the fire in the library.” This is a short story and does not describe the thrills of the hunt very well, but I thought you would like

Santa Claus and one of the little helpers are puzzling over a toy locomotive in this extraordinary telephoto picture from Holly Berry, Times correspondent in Eskimoland.

Many Are Given County Permits to Carry Guns
‘Personal Protection’ and Guarding of Property Chief Reasons. Revolvers and guns are carried by persons other than bandits and irate husbands in search of the certain party. This was revfealed today in records of permits issued for gun toting in the county clerk’s office. Since July, 105 persons have obtained permits. Many of the permits set out that the firearms are to be used in places of business while others are issued under the heading of “personal protection” which might include the aforementioned husbands, Undertakers Carry Guns Surprising is the fact that undertakers carry guns.

Theater operators, filling station attendants and merchant police are frequent applicants. Another class of persons who call themselves “target shooters,” also apply for permits, rot saying what the target may be. Must Explain Much When Joe Clutch or Bill Splvis applies for a permit, there is plenty to explain. They first subject themselves to a rigid description of their physiognomy. “Blue eyes, black curly hair, five feet ten inches, wart on right cheek, 37 years old, artificial right leg” and other such terms of description are entered on the record. The business of the applicant, his address and the purpose for which the “gat” is obtained also is set out, in addition to a minute description of the artillery.
