But if you ltave n book of suggestions and ideas on Forest Festivals be sure to drop one off for my Forest Festival association. I. know tley would appreciate some help. Bring sometlflng nice Ior the Junior Chamber of Commerce. They have a plan to help me and my young folks, and I think tleir work should bc acknowledged. You'd better bring a lypodermic needle too, though, so I ca give them a pick-me-up shot when they start to lose interest and slow down on the project. FOR THE Shelton Chamber of Commerce you can bring a . . . Well, now there is a problem, San- ta. I haven't heard much from them this'year, and I should have. There are a lot of my best huM- ncss people in that organization. Maybe a nice case of New Year Spirit and then, to play safe, a of easy chairs for rigor to set in. The street department really needs a couple of little gifts. About two dozen bottles of glue, large size, would help to make the patches stick on the trenches they dig across my streets. ALSO a ball of straight string, l The string they have is so warped and crooked that it seems diffi- I cult for them to put a straight t line down the middle of my streets. 1 When they go a little off center / with that little gadget they paint the stripes with it tickles me and| wlen I laugh I can t lie still, so you see, the men aren't really to blame for those crooked lines. You'll see that I was really hil- arious the day they. went tip the hill past the high school. If you come into town that way tonight you will understand. SANTA, could you bring an awning for me to hang over 2nd St.? A lot of my old-timers have office space there on the sidewalk, and it is quite a hardship for them to conduct their business when it the same as all over the world. I think we have more to be happy about rlgM here in Shelton, the . . There go a couple more lights out in my homes . . . getting quieter. When you come through this year be sure to 1oo1( arotmd me and see all the, beautiful decora- tions, Up on nay right shoulder you will see a lovely illuminated out-door tree. The liglts are all hlue with a flaming orange cross on the very top. Three blocks south is another out-door tree. It is a low, round bush with colored lights draped ()vet' it. In the windows here you will notice the holly wreaths with candles burning all night to make tle dark seem more cheery. Irs that way all over me ...... makes }no feel good. Over on my left shoulder, way out on my hands and feet, Lhe homes nren't so ch)se together, but the beautiful decora- tions and the wonderful Christmas spirit are .just the same. When you come through tonight, Santa, you will know you have seen the BIGGEST and the BUS IEST little city on your whole trip this year. and I'm awfully proud of myself.

"Joe." A lot of my men are single attd the only home they have ia the packsack they carry on "their back when they come in from the logging camps. Many of them drank their Christmas dinner in the only place that was open last year. I don't,, suppose you can help them much, I but he especially generous to the people who do this year. IF YOU have room, you might bring that new school along for my children. They could sure use it. Bring several cards to show the sclmol officials we appreciate the great piece of work they are doing under the present set-up, if you will please. Say, Santa, look around and see if you can't find some old price lists lying over in the corner. My merchants could sure use them. Remember the old ones that used to have butter for 37 cents a • pound, bib overalls 98 cents a pir new Fords for $495 F.O.B.? Those were the days, weren't'they "ChriS" ? , " I warned you when I started that my list is long and muddled. I suppose if my weekly paper gets a hold of tlis they will have to print it, though. Might be a good idea if they did, Santa. IF I DIDN'T give my people a little dig here and a ribbing there, and a pat on the back now and then, I wouldn't be half the ize I am. If helps to get them all working together. They will have to work hard and plan together to keep up with my growth, and I haven't shown them anything yet. Wait and see. This is getting to be a long let- ter to you, Santa, and I'm getting to be awfully tired. I've had an- over there are a mother and father trying to decide who should get the last Christmas card.
