This Merry Christmas
is to you.
t
There is no wish
we can give more true
than this jolly
old fellow
Letter to Santa
(Cmtintl(,d ll'Oltl Pl|y:e f)IH)
won't recognize me tmless you are
looking very earcftflly. 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.
Remember all my people, Santa.
With Love,
SHELTON

couldn't even have found a cup of ................................................................
"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. They are
wondering how they could forget
to send cards to so many of'their
ACROSS FROM BUS DEPOT friends as each new mail delivery
