Dear Santa Claus--
I hope the snow will not be so deep that you can not stop by my house. I want you to please bring me some apples, oranges and candy and some nuts and sparklers and some fire crackers. Your little friend.

Dear old Santa Claus--
I will write you a short letter to tell you what I want for Christmas. I am a little girl six years old, and I want you to bring me a baby carriage, and a robe, a pair of bed room slippers, a pair of kid gloves and a doll trunk. I want lots of candy, fruits, nuts and tangerines. I remain your little girl.
