Criticism
Is
Not

Fair
Says
Financial
Pott
A
great
many
people
who
were
formerly
strong
proponents
of
the
wheat
pool
idea
have
yeen
critical
of
the
policies
of
the
Canadian
poolr
of
late.
They
blame
the
pools
foi
the
slowing
up
of
Canadian
business.
The
criticism
Is
not
entirely
fair,
says
the
Financial
Post.
The

have
had
to

a

SANTA
CLAUS
REALLY
CAME
Santa
Claus
came
to
a
great
many
people
this
year.
If
there
had
been
no
Santa
Claus,
a
good
many
people
would
have
gone
without
presents.
Over
thirty
years
ago-
this
question
of
the
reality
of
Santa
Claus
was
a
live
one.
The
New
York
Sun
dealt
with
it
in
a
leading
editorial
article
as
follows:
We
take
pleasure
in
answering
at
once
and
thus
prominently
the
communication
below,
expressing
at
the
same
'
time
our
great
gratification
that
its
faithful
author
is
numbered
among
the
friends
of
The
Sun
:
"Dear
Editor
I
am
8
years
old.
,
"Some
of
my
little
friends
say
there
Is
no
Santa
Claus.
"Papa
says
'If
you
see
It

It's
so.'
"Please
tell
me
the
truth,
is
there
a
Santa
Claus?
"VIRGINIA
O'HANLON.
"115
West
Nlnety-flfth
Street
Virginia,
your
little
friends
are
wrong.
They
have
been
affected
by
the
skepticism
of
a
skeptical
age.
They
do
not
believeexcept
they
see.
They
think
that
nothing
can
be
whyiSjriot
comprehensible
by
their
little
minds.
All
mincfe,
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
compared
with
the
boundless
world
about
him,
as
measured
by
the
intelligence
capable
of
grasping
the
whole
of
truth
and
knowledge.
Yes,
Virginia,
there
is
a
Santa
Claus.
He
exists
as
certainly
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
the$
were
ho
Santa
Claus!
It
would
be
as
dreary
as
if
thefe
were
no
Virginias.
There
would
be
no
childlike
faith
then,
no
poetry,
no
romance
to
make
tolerable
this
existence,
except
in
sense
and
sight.
The
eternal
light
with
which
childhood
fills
the
world
would
be
extinguished.
Not
believe
in
Santa
Claus
!
You
might
as
well
not
believe
in
fairies!
You
might
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
?
Of
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

Is

real?
Ah,
