CROWDS SEE REINDEER MAN These are busy days for Santa Claus, After eleven months spent in the |workshop up at the North Pole mak- ‘xnu toys and keeping the reindeers in {good shape, it's quite a change to come to Omaha and spend your time in Toyland where the children are trooping joyously through all day long. But Santa Ciaus likes it. Bless you, of course he does. And he has a cheery word for every little child that comes to shake hands with |him, He has more than that. At one Omaha department store he began esterday glving away a box of |candy to every youngster who came to see him, The way that news spread through }Nnv and Girl Land made Paul Revere ook like & crosstown street car. In just la Jiffy after the candy-giving had been |discovered by a few early birds it was jall over town. Came Like n Flood. From all directions the flood of kids came. The Pled Piper of Hamlin crowd |was a mere handful compared to this juvenile army, | They stormed the doors. The railing in |front of Santa Claus' cotton-snow cov- lered house was soon a jam of eager | youngsters. They filed past all day, each |being presented with a lttle box of |sweets. A couple of policemen had to be called in the afternoon to help handle the crowds. The Santas in the other stores had a busy days, too. One of them has a house all his own with doors and windows and everything. Inside there's a fireplace and Santa sits on a blg sofa. All about the walls and on the floor and mantlepiece are toys, toys, toys. The stream of children goes in the front door and out the side. My, my, it doesn't seem there could be so many children in Omaha! Big and little. Boys in sweat- ers and with holes in their stockings |and boys In fur coats and Eton collars. Girls, rich and poor. In the nearts of all beats eagerness and love for good ola Saint Nick. And such a jolly old soul as he is! In his red suit bordered with white fur {and his white whiskers and white hair and with his jolly 1augh and kindly inquiry as to what each youngster wants, ha, ha,” laughs Santa as the kids stream in and he shakes their eager hands and now and then pats one on the head. “Ha, ha, ha, T am so glad to see such nice little boys and girls. Come right in, don’t push. This is my busy day. Saturdays I'm always busiest. You must come sometimes anoder day. Then we sit down and have a nice long talk. Saturdays I can't talk so Jong. It's my busy day."” | A little boy is stopping after hie hand- thake. His face is serious and determined. |He has evidently given long and serious |thought to this occasion. “SBandy Claws, I want either a tricycle or a bicycle for Christmas,” he says. “All right, my boy, all right,” says Santa, “I vill remember it."” And then as the boy is nearly out the door Santa calls after him as though not quite sure, |"A tricycle or a blcycle?’ and the boy nods his head vigorously. And so the stream continues. A young- ster rushes back. He has forgotten some- thing “I forgot to tell you, Santy Claws,my little brother wants a drum. He couldn't come today. His name i —— - Santa keeps a book and pencil, for there are certain practical youths who belleve it s safest if Santa puts down the name and address 80 as to be sure he doesn't forget. “It's the next house to the cor- ner,” some will say, and Santa writes down, ‘next house to the corner” in the bcok.

Furthermore, fhe company includes a lot of ‘‘good-lookers,”’ cremtes plenty of fun, has the sparkle and snap essential to successful extravaganza, shows 8o classy wardrobe and Is also ‘“the with the dancing. As proof of the raugh-compelling quali- ties of the show, it need only be sald that last night a young woman got to laughing so hard at the fun that the fun- sters themselves had to stop and accept the compliment until the hilarity eased up. Will J. Kennedy heads the company. He will be - remembered for “his - eomic work in past seasons as a rube sheriff— the fellow who says, “I'm a gol durn bror-r-ave man, 1 am.” The best thing about his comedy is that it is clean cut Kennedy {s still “‘com- ing,"” too; he has appeared funnier each season, and during & single performance, his comedy seems to grow on the audi- ence, 8o that the longer he s at it, the better he becomes. Jack Miller also is a capable and popular comedian, and in a specialty and also with Kennedy and Harry Kelly, makes quite a hit. Harry Evans is ‘a little fellow, who excels at freak dances. Lynne Canter has one of the best female volces heard at the Gayety this season, such volces as hers are quite exceptional in burlesque. Flo Davis is & regular flash of lightning as a soubrette, being both clever and -gingery in both songs and dances, Killy Forsythe and Lottie Black- ford also are pleasing In solos.
