SANTA CLAUS LAND JACK FROST (St. Nick Has'a Wonderful Zoo of Toy Animals) BY JACK (By Wireless to FROST. Hal M. Cochran). This message from Santa Claus Land is for the lttle folks, and parents | Santa Claus Land, North Pole, Dec 2.—Oh, I Santa wasn't going to make a trip down all of Britain this have had such a lot of fun today laying with all the hundreds of queer toys and things, that I hate to see them taken away from me. But Santa says he's going to load them all in his airplane the night before Christmas and take them on the long trip hrough he clouds. | T guess I'll tell you what's coming for the little boys and girls to play with. Some lucky little child is going to get a fire engine that runs all by itself. You just wind it up and away it goes. It's got two ladders on it and some little pails to carry water in, And it's ainted bright red, just like the big, real fire engines, Bear Scares Me. While I was playing with_ this toy a little in man came walking by me, just wish Claus the chimneys New vear pushing a cart that had some little | milk cans in it. He nodded his head a3 he walked. pon a table th ith & 1 tha was a fuzzy little had a rubber ta sneaked .and the bear he didn’t bite So | aren’t supposed to read it unless they read out loud. Then I was pretty nearly run over by a train that came speeding along over some tracks that were spread | all over the floor. It had a coal car and two freight cars on behind it. The next time it came by there were two passenger cars hooked on. This time I caught it and pulled a little lever and it stopped. Then I pulled the lever again and away it went. But the track came apart and the whole train went over on the floor in a heap. Santa handcd me a tall thing, just like a wind mill tower. It had a long | string on 1t and a hook on the end. 1 put the hook into the engine of the | train and turned a handle. The whole | train came up into the air and went swinging back onto the track. Plenty to Play With. 1 played for hours with milk wag- ons, automobile trucks, little electric autos, walking dogs, jumping monkeys and meowing cat And you can just bet I had a won- derful time. That's why I don’t want | Santa to take all these lovely things down the chimneys in New Britain. But I'm glad all you children are going to have the same fun I've had. I'm going to take a look at the big express wagoms and,such things now. and tomorrow I'li%tell you an things.
