EDWARD C. MINAS CO.

A Letter from Santa Claus for the Children of the Calumet Region

Dear Little Friends :

Santa Claus Workshop, In the Land of Ice and Snow.

It is almost time for me to pack my great sack chock full of toys, jump into my sleigh behind Donner and Blitzen and my other faithful reindeers and start out for Hammond. I will reach there on November 26th, and my headquarters will be at Edward C. Minas Co. I hope you will come to see me while I'm there and if you are very good I'm sure mother will bring you. But before I leave here I want to have an idea of what things to put into my pack and so I ash you would sit right down and write me a letter telling me exactly what you would like to find under the tree and in your stocking on Christmas morning. My workshop is full of wonderful things for good boys and girls. You should just see how hard the jolly little man who makes Raggedy Anns is working and how busy the workman who makes trains is, and how the machines hum that are stitching dolly clothes. And the shelves all around the w'orkroom are lined with rows of wooly white lambs and friendly teddy bears and wagons and sets of of tea-party dishes and lots of other things. If you want me to bring you any of these things or even if it is something else, just tell me in your letter and when I get to Edward C. Minas Co. we will talk it all over. But be very good and do just what Mother tells you. Your Jolly Friend, SANTA CLAUS.
