The Largest Toy Ever Brought from Germany Is One of the Chief Attractions of SANTA CLAUS’ CARNIVAL A quaint little German village is beside itself with excitement, because it is threatened with a conflagration. The Fire Brigade is out in force and pumping water busily on the burning houses; while the populace is making desperate efforts to get itself and its household effects out of danger. More than seventy-five men, women and children are represented in the wonderfully lifelike scene, and the children grow vastly excited over it. . Then there is the POLAR BEARS’ STORE—another absorbing novelty brought by GIM- BELS from abroad.
