"Some of my friends say there is no Santa Claus." PRR Papa says "If you see it in The Sun it's so." "Pleasé tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus?" Virginia O'Hanlon 115 West Ninety-fifth Street.' SE eet LHE ANSWER: PPPS PEPE SS SSS SA Virginia, your little iriends are wrong. Lhey have been atlected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. Lhey do not believe except they see. Lhey think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their littleminds. All minds Virginia, whether they be men's or children's are little. In this great universe of Ours man is a mere insect,an ant, in his intellect, as compared with the boundless world about Nim, as measured by the intelligence capable o1 grasping; the whole of truth and knowledge. Yes, Virgimia there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exists, and you know that they abound and give to your life its high- est beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. Lhere would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerabie this exist- ence. We shduld have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished. Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not be- lieve in fairies! You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if they did not see Santa Claus coming down what would they prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor Some gifts come in big packages men can see.
