Dear Santa: I am a little girl 3 years old. Mother says I have been good so I want you to bring me a tea set, a toilet set, a little electric iron. Santa, you need not bring me a big doll for daddy got me one when I was sick about a couple of weeks ago. You can bring me a carriage to ride my doll in, lots of toys, nuts and candy, so I will close. Wishing you good luck on your round. Love,

MARJORIE HARRISON
