The fire in the Garner garage was discovered about 10:30 o'clock, before Thieves Ransack Santa Fe Station Package Stolen Robbers entered the Santa Fe station some time Saturday night, but found very little worth stealing. The lock on the express room door was broken and a parcel post package was stolen. The office was also entered but nothing was taken. Station Agent N. J. Kuhlman says that it is not the practice to leave money or valuables in the station during the hours when it is closed. Nothing has been discovered that would serve as a clue to the identity of the robbers.

There are only seventeen more shopping days before Christmas and the different shops and stores of Anaheim are ready to receive shoppers in the Christmas spirit with their full holiday lines on sale. This is to be a Christmas long to be remembered.

There will be a Santa Claus this year—a real Santa Claus—and whether you are eight years old or eighty, do not let anyone convince you that Santa Claus is a myth. Santa Claus is the true spirit of Christmas time and he dwells in the hearts of those whose souls are in tune with the spirit of the season.

In the practice of charity, Elkdom edifies the world because its charity must be practiced in secret.
