Your little friend,

Dear Santa Claus:
Mother says that you never forget good little boys and if I will write to you you won't forg me. My name is Frankie Mankin. I will listen more older than I was last Christmas. I do not want much. I want a flag, a big one to wave, and a megaphone and don't forget to bring me a drum, a big Frankie Hodder beats all the time. I want my drum to be as nearly like Frankie Hodder's drum as possible, and drumsticks just like Frankie's. too. And a string to fasten it over Frankie's. I will close for this time.
Your loving little friend. Frankie Melvin.
Dear Santa Claus:
I want a jack-in-the-box to scare people with. I want a squirt gun and a pea shooter and a snake kodak and some red hot candies. Have the candies red hot, hotter than any they have in town. You can be a Christmas actress, acting the last few Christmasmas, Santa. You've been treating me short. I won't stand for it. Who do you think you are, anyway? It makes me hot, the way you feel. You can't be someone you had good sense. You acted like a fool. I won't stand for it. What do you think Christmas is, for any? Here I waited a whole year for that last Christmas and it wasn't perfect. Other whole years for this Christmas, and you'd better do something this time. I won't stand for it, if you

Dear Santa:
Do you s'pose there's any little halos laying 'round. We need 'em.

I like to play with adding machines. It's much quicker to figure with than my head. We're playing "faculty women's club" and I have to pretend to tell them how much they eat. They eat a lot.
Dear Santa:
Florence Black.
Dear Santa:
Please bring me a brand new set of tin soldiers and a book of Child's History of the World. You know dear Santa that I have always wanted to be a soldier, and I like all kinds of toys. But the best thing I will be a good boy for the rest of the year, and will not even say a cross word to my little playmates in
Please do this dear, good, old Santa and I will do something for you sometime.
