But as it is they think of you as living near the permanent home of the eternal; spirit of Christmas, St. Nicholas, | more popularly known to American | children as Santa Claus. For this| genial saint is always pictured as clad in furs, and as transporting | his gifts on a sled much like those used in your land, and always| M Western and Northern Alaska raise | and care for. | “Such are the thoughts of our boys and girls about you. Perhaps | you think of Santa Claus also| coming to you from a far off land.| Perhaps you think of him as com- ing to you from Washington. And in a very real way he does come to you from the Capitol. For here re- sides the President of the United | States and here assemble every! December, the Senate and the House of Representatives who are elected to speak and act for your! fellow citizens of the 48 states. And every winter the President and Congress think of you. They give heed to what you need to h'elp you | be finer and healthier men and women. They want you to be free from disease if possible and to have help to get well if you should be afflicted. They are eager that you learn to read and write and to master the crafts which will enable you to build up Alaska and make more comfortable and pleasant homes, and that you may go sing- ing about your daily tasks. They would like to give you much more but the money is limited. It must care for many needs hesides yours. Yet Congress found it possible last winter to give you more hos- pitals and more schools. Doubt- less this winter it will remember you again and in due time these funds will reach you and benefit you. “When one receives a gift from his father or mother, it is easy to express thanks and to show that appreciation is felt. But when Uncle Sam bestows gifts on his children, thanking Congress through your delegate, or thanking the President through his representa- tive, the Secretary of the Interior, does ‘not mean very much. You can kest thank Uncle Sam by obeying the laws of your country and by doing everything in your power T making it a land of which you and all Americans may be justly proud.” to build up the Territory of Alaska | ’ IHHHHHHIN {tor has been practicing during the|gr,un by the reindeer, that you in|== The greetings from the Division- e e T of the “Alaska Native Service News|the best the profession affords, and | our hearts open to the needs oriMermmd's Song, ensemble three Uncle Sam, Dr. Cooper said, ls‘n‘lhc individual child wherever we| real Santa Claus to Indian and|Work, our whole interest concerned| Keith Petrich, Eskimo school children.
