Santa Claus Supremacy At Village Christmas Event
Warily Gander and Santa Claus delighted children and parents as the Village Hall hosted annual Christmas festivities. Two trees funded by subscription served local children, a cedar fairyland set the scene, and Rev. Henry L. Foote highlighted goodwill. Santa distributed gifts after a festive arrival, joking about a gander and a golf ball caper before stories of a toy doll given to Miss Mary C. Dutton and stockings for Miss Alice Dutton and Miss Helen Taylor. The tale ends with Santa explaining the gander’s mischief and a cliffhanger note about page three.
