Santa Will Drop His Pack on Bowman's Store
Roof Tomorrow Afternoon Between 2 and 3
Christmas Souvenirs For Children Accompanied By Adults
Many of you did not see his first visit to Bowman's store. In fact, he came unheralded and only those who were down town
at the moment saw how he dropped his package at Bowman's front door. This time, however if it does not rain, snow or blow
too hard, Santa will drop his big red sack on top of the roof so all may see how it is done.
Shortly thereafter, between three and four o'clock, Santa will distribute Christmas souvenirs to all children accompanied
by adults. 1 hese souvenirs will be given away at his castle, on the Second Floor. The stairway just inside the door leads to his
castle.
Remember, only children accompanied by adults—between three and four o'clock. The Chimes in front of building will
play when Santa's airship is approaching, so you may know when to expect him.
And then you will want to see Toyland in the Basement with its hundreds of wonderful tovs, pretty dolls and interesting
games. And don't forget to tell your mamma or your papa about the Toy Mission box at the front door. Of course you
will want to make some little girl or boy happy who has no mamma or papa.
