Stage all Set for Community Christmas Tree
December 19, 1923
Everything is in readiness for the big community Christmas tree of the Salvation Army.
At a special conference with Santa Claus held early this week all the details of his appearance were worked out and an evening of real delight for the children has been arranged.
This conference was held with Santa over the Radio at his headquarters at the North Pole.
Between 400 and 500 children are expected to be present and Captain Diez the local representative of Santa Claus, on this occasion has completed all details so that none will be missed. Santa will have something for every one of the kiddies.
A fair list of names of deserving families has been made up by Captain Diez and they will be taken care of during this season. Any additional names suggested by anyone will be welcomed by the captain.
Everyone is urged to cooperate in this effort of the army as possible.
The program will commence at 7 o’clock P.M. sharp on Monday, December 21 so as not to interfere with any family trees to be held later in the evening.
Grown-ups are just as welcome as the kiddies so do not hesitate to put in an appearance at the high school auditorium.
