SANTA CLAUS PAGEANT
FEATURE FOR ALTOONA.
The fact that Christmas is fast
approaching is brought very forcibly
to the attention of our readers in
the large advertisement being used
in this issue by the Altoona Booster
Association to tell of a wonderful
parade and pageant that will be held
in Altoona on Friday, November 28,
the day after Thanksgiving.
The parade has been arranged in
honor of Santa Claus who has sent
word to the Altoona merchants that
he will come direct to their stores
from his North Pole headquarters
where he has been busy in his work-
-shop ever since last Christmas mak-
ing toys for his millions of boys and
girls throughout the world.
According to the information sent
by the jolly old Saint, he will arrive
in Altoona, accompanied by his
Santa Claus band, in time to lead
the parade that has been arranged
in his honor and which will start
promptly at 2 o'clock Friday after-
noon, November 28.
There will be an interesting group
of story book favorities in the
parade such as Humpty Dumpty,
Cinderella, Alladin and his Wonder-
ful Lamp, Jack and the Bean-Stalk
and other interesting story book
characters and attendants all dress-
ed in gorgeous costumes just as
they are described in the story
books.
Santa Claus will also have in his
parade an Eskimo band dressed
just like the people with whom
Santa lives throughout the year at
the North Pole.
Santa Claus sends a special invi-
tation to all children as well as
their parents to go to Altoona and
see him and his wonderful parade.
He wants all boys and girls to
take their letters to him and his
couriers will gather them up along
the route. This is important” as
this arrangement will insure the
letters going direct to Santa Claus
for his attention.
The management of the Altoona
Booster Association assures us that
this will be the best and most
colorful Santa Claus pageant that
has ever been held in this section
and one that every child should see,
OPENING CHRISTMAS SHOPPING
SEASON.
The Altoona stores will inaugurate
the opening of the Christmas Shop-
ping Season on the same day that
the Santa Claus parade is held, Fri-
day, November 28.
This will be the time when the
Stores. will have their complete dis-
play of Christmas gift merchandise
ready for inspection. The sugges.
tion made “by Altoona merchants to
their out-of-town friends “to trade
in ‘their home stores first but to
come to Altoona Booster Stores for
the things their home merchants
cannot supply,” pertains to Christ-
mas gift buying, the same as to
other merchandise.

the Evangelical church. The music
will be rendered by the choir and
organist of the Reformed church.
Rev. Robert Thena, pastor of the
Reformed church, will be assisted
in the service by the various pastors
of the community.
It has been the custom of the
Ministerial Association to receive an
offering at this service for the
benefit of the Centre County hospi-
tal, It is realized, however, that
the hospital will be compelled to do
a great deal of free service this
winter on account of conditions prev-
alent thrughout the country. To
meet. this increased demand it has
been thought well to enlarge the
scope of the privilege of giving on
this occasion from those who at-
tend the Thanksgiving Day service
to the entire community. Envelopes
‘are being prepared and will be dis-
tributed to the homes of Bellefonte
