Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus" Sixty-two yeors ago, an eight-year old girl wrote to the New York Sun to ask quite simply: "Is there a Santa Claus?" The newspaper's reply was, in part, as follows: "Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, I . . ? f and you know that they abound and give your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas; how dreary the world would be if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no Hr childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerabll this exis tence. We would have no enjoyment then, except in sight and sound. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished . . . "Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children or men can see . . , "No Santa Claus? Thank God! He lives, and lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay, ten times ten thousand years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood." Murphy Personals Mr. and Mrs. R. C.
