Show Santa Claus Christmas While some in this country choose not to observe the Santa San-ta Claus tradition at Christmas, Christ-mas, which is their privilege and not to be. criticized, for most American children Christmas eve is a magic night unmatched for the rest of the year. HOW MANY have tried to stay awake Christmas eve night, to hear Santa land on the roof? How many have left food by the fireplace? How many have thrilled to the marrow at a glimpse of him, in red and white? How many millions of letters have gone out to him, of childish hope for wonderful toys and fun? If it can't last, and it can't; if it isn't real life, and it isn't, it is nevertheless a magic time of joy and excitement and wonderful won-derful anticipation for youngsters. |
