Happiness Hall at the Toy Carnival itl) furnish all the thrills for which a young heart could wish, and since by youth we mean our capacity to re- flect the joy we receive, surely Happi- ness Hall will make a strong appeal to each and all who enter the Magic City on December 8.

The Fairy Wishing Well presided over by elfs and fairies will be ready to fulfill one's fondest wishes. Old Mother Hubbard's cupboard will not be bare. Both Mother Hubbard and her dog will be there.

Ha's! teddy bears will arrive on the Magic Way road, their train being well loaded with still more magic packages. Gayly uniformed gen- darmes will act as guards so that all will run smoothly and safely on this Magic road. Now what could be more fun than a ride on the Hobby- Horse, a slide down the Slides or a trip on the merry-go-round, especially when a really truly organ-grinder furnishes the music? Raggedy-Ann, the Gingham Dog, the Calico Cat and many other fav- orites wi'l mingle with the guests. The Court Jester will also do his part in rssisting King Ha! Hal to entertain his friends. More music and still more music will be furnished by his strolling minstrels. Princess Merry-Ifeet, with her soft furry coat will be seated near King Ha! Ha!--the story of her own life will be told as she complacently looks on, occasionally expressing herself in a soft plaintive "MEOW."
