will be available for the runniflg
expenses of the Vohmteer Fire
Department. Donations from the
community will still be needed to
provide running expenses until
that time, as well as for the extra
expense of finishing the fire hall,
as tax revenue will not take care
of extras.
The firemen, of course, will al-
ways be making a donation of
time. The district will bring
enough financial relief tlmt it will
he longer be necessary to provide
for upkeep and current expenses
by fund-raising drives, and this is
generally regarded as an improve-
ment.
WATCHING THE polls for 12

Letter To Santa
By Yernabelle Botts
Dear Santa---You may think
high-school aged children are a
little too mature to still believe
in the folklore about your annual
visit on Christmas Eve. In a way
we are metering in mind and body
so that our childhood times are
beginning to feel cherished in our
memories.
However, we are also thinking
of the future-both ours, our
children and theh.s to come. We
are wondering, if not in a direct
way, whether our children will be-
lieve in Santa Claus. Will they be
free, happy, carefree children like
we have been, and in many ways
still are, or will they be hungry,
unhealthy, wanting of bread and
milk more than wanting toys or
sweets ?
We are wondering, Santa, and
hoping with all our hearts that
God will protect us and keep all
evil from rich or poor, be we yel-
low, black or white.
May God justify the unjust, free
the burdened and enslaved, feed
the hungry, heal the sick and
