Clerks To the local post office clerks should go credit for the very splendid manner in which they handled the Christmas inrush and outrush of holiday mail parcels and greetings cards without end.

CIVIC GROUPS AND' INDIVIDUALS COOPERATE WITH AMERICAN LEGION IN DISTRIBUTING CANDY, NUTS AND FRUITS TO CHILDREN OF THIS VICINITY AT CHRISTMAS EVE CIVIC CHRISTMAS TREE St. Nicholas himself put in a busy Christmas eve in Helhe greeted just slightly under 1000 local children when per at the community tree in front of the city hall, while members i of Carbon post 21 of the American Legion distributed fruit, candy and nuts to the little visitors. Hardly a child got by without shaking hands with Santa Claus and hearing his cheery words of greeting, and to the credit of those who planned this big holiday event may it be said that not a single child failed to get his or her presents thru lack of supplies. Secrets, of course, must always be kept and we do not wish to tell any we are supposed to keep. But for the infor-- i mation of the grownups, Henry H. Jones of Helper was right on the job every minute, altho many of the children may have failed to see him at least as Mr. Jones. , The tree and favors were the result of close cooperation between local civic organizations and individuals, working in with the local post of the American Legion. This latter organization thru The Journal offers its thanks and appreciation to all those who assisted in the Christmas tree festivities, and states that this year, for the first time, there ' is no deficit. All is paid for in full. Christmas generally was a cheerful event in most homes and many presents were made possible thru the financial as sistance of the civil works program, with se vera "thousands of dollars distributed thruout the county lat Saturday afternoon. |
