1966
VIRGINIA, your little
friends are wrong. They have
I been affected by the skeptic
cism of a sweptical age. They
do not believe except they see.
They think that nothing can
be which is not comprehen
sible by their little minds. All
minds, Virginia, whether they
be men’s or children’s, are
little. In this great universe
of ours man is a mere insect,
an ant, in his intellect, as com
pared with the boundless
world about hi.m, as measured
by the intelligence capable of
grasping the whole of truth
and knowledge.
Yes, Virginia, there is a
Santa Claus. He exists as cer
tainly as love and generosity
and devotion exist, and you
know that they abound and
give to your life its highest
beauty and joy. Alas! how
dreary would be the world if
there were no Virginias. There
would be no child-like faith
then, no poetry, no romance
to make tolerable this exis
tence. We should have no en
joyment. except in sense and
sight. The eternal light with
which children fills the world
would be extinguished.
Not believe in Santa Claus!
You might as well not believe
in fairies! You mi'ght get your
papa to hire .men to watch in
all the chimneys on Christmas
Eve to catch Santa Claus but,
even if they did not see Santa
Claus coming down, what
would that prove?
Nobody sees Santa Claus,
but that is no sign that there
is no Santa Claus. The most
real things in' the world are
those that neither children nor
men can see. Did you ever
see fairies dancing on the
lawn? Os course not, but that’s
no proof that they are not
there. Nobody can conceive or
imagine all the wonders there
are unseen and unseeable in
the world.
You tear apart the baby’s
rattle and see what makes the
noise inside, but there is a
veil covering the unseen
world which not the strongest
man, nor even’ the united
strength of all the strongest
men that ever lived, could
tear apart. Only faith, fancy,
poetry, love romance, can
push aside that curtain and
view and picture the supernal
beauty and glory beyond. Is
it all real? Ah, Virginia, in
all this world there is nothing
else real and abiding.
Brunswick Coca-Cola
Bottling Company
No Santa Claus! Thank God
he lives, and he 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.
Bulgarian Custom
Bulgarian peasants eat
sparrows on Christmas Eve
so that they will have music
in their souls and will feel as
if they have wings.
The sparrows are caught in
wheat fields weeks before
Christmas, killed, and hung to
dry under the house eaves.
On Christmas Eve they are
soaked, broiled, and eaten.
Let's Be Jolly
Sing hey! Sing hey!
For Christmas Day;
Twin l mistletoe and holly.
For friendship glows
In winter snows,
And so let’s all be jolly!
