December 13, 1946 THE LEXHIPEP Page 9 LETTERS to SANTA CLAUS Dear Santa (Claus, that is), I done beena mighty good big boy since last Christmas, so I feel that it won’t be too much to ask for a few little things tor Christmas. Perhaps if you get here a while before Christmas, you can see that 1946 Buick convertible being driven around town by J. O. Burke. It does look mighty nice and I’m not saying for you to get me one, but wouldn’t someone like Rita Hayworth, for instance, look good sitting beside me on the front seat? Here’s hoping! Jake Dear Jake, You are right; that convertible is mighty nice. But I haven’t any in stock right now; and as for Rita, I’m going to pnone her just as soon as I finish answering these letters. Merry Hayworth! Santa Dear ole Santa, We’ve been good this year and aren’t asking for very much, only two things, the Leonard twins from S. C. Drop them m the toe of our stockings.
