Children’s Christmas Letters To Santa From Local Kids

A flood of handwritten requests to Santa from nine year olds and younger fill a local page, each child asking for dolls, toy cars, trains, riding gear, candy, fruits, nuts, and small gifts. Many mention gift shows at the Ritz Theatre on December 24 and Nowlin's candy as a favored treat, with thanks to Mr and Mrs Nowlin. The letters reveal simple desires, classroom details, and a wish to share with other children during the season.
