Dear Reporter:
lam a little boy 9 years old.
Ido not go to school. Mama
teaches me at home, my studies
are fourth reader, geography,
arithmetic, spelling and writing.
I like geography the best of all.
I think I would like to live in
Boston.
How many of you are looking
for Santa Claus ? I for one. I
is loading up to take
Ins long trip with his warn fur
clothes on, and his reindeer sled.
I believe I would like to ride with
him. „ I know he would give me
all the sugar plums I could eat.
I know he is kind and good, for
is it that don't know him.
Is it not kind of Santa Claufi to
think of dPar little boys and
girls when the winter nights are
long and dreary because Christ
mas doesn't come but once a year.
Your little friend,
WILLIE WILKINS.
