We called for them and urged that they be sent in before our issue of December 13. In order that the precious little ones may not feel entirely slighted by us, or that Santa Claus might overlook them,we publish below the , names of those who have sent in letters this week, and especially request that old Santa Claus visit each one of them next Monday night and make their little hearts happv all day Tuesday.
