MM. mor Wou,
On* of the most charming Yuleide
chucklers concerns the pigailed
youngster who found s pin:ushlon
among her other gifts on
Christmas morning. The little girl ;
hen placed this note near the fire?lace:
"Dear Santa: Thank you
rery much for your presents. And 1
: always wanted a pin-cushion, *1hough
not very much."
'
Another classic of the season' is
he one about the woman *who
itopped to chat with a friend after
he Yuletide services, leaving her
>urse iq. her pew. When she reurned
for her nurse, she discovered
t was gone. However, she quickly
'ound it in the possession of the
ilergyman.
"I thought I had better hold it,"
te explained. "There are some is
he congregation who don't believe
n Santa Claus, but they might
ronsider this purs* an answer to
heir prayers."
t
A 10-year-old boy, making his flrs't
risit at Sunday school during the
>re-Christmas season, was held
pell-bound by the teacher-* reital
of Biblical stories about the
loly Day and the spiritual meaning
if Christmas. Later he was asked
o All out the school's standard quev
ionnaire for new pupils. One of the
lueries Was: "Who will always know
inhere you aret"
The little boy answered It by
writing simply: "God."
Invariably revived at the Yuletide
eason is the yarn about the Scotsnan
who slipped and fell while
arrying a bottle of Christmas spirts.
On rising he felt something
vet- running down his leg.
,He said to himseif:. "I hope it's
lood."
; ' j
Almost overcome with Joy on j
Ihristmas Day when she received
wo gifts she had most ardently deired?a
wrist-watch and a bottle
f perfume?little Margaret chatered
about the new possessions alt
ay long, wearying her mother of
lie subject. Guests were expected
jr dinner and her mother gently
dmonlshed Margaret in advance,
aying, "Now, dear, everybody
nows about your presents and evrybody
is happy for you. But now
re mustn't v on talking about them
n the time."
'The little girl held her peace at
tie table throughout the greater part
f the meal. A lull occurred in
he conversation and, unable to
strain herself, Margaret burst
>rth, "If anyone hears anything or
metis anything, it's met"

A department etc e Santa Claua
ittned to a long recital of requests

U best, to meet her requirements,
lefore she left, Santa handed her
bright red apple. "What do you
