I hur- ried on, too. The firemen didn't seem to mind. At The Hospital At the hospital we trooped around from room to rootn giv- ing out the candies. And hee in where I .saw Santa really open up. It was a bit like the way he treated the little ones back at the police 'station. Nobody seemed to mind Santa coming in. The nursos, all the time we were there, did nothing else but giggle. there'd be a sitriek an tkeI all stand there as • they hadnothing else to do and giggle like Ceenage girls. Nobody asked what we were doint;,,,/ or what permission we had. We even had the even. ing supervieor (who was too old to giggle like a tenager, and so didnee) show us around. We heeded erst for the child- ren's ward. Happily 111 report there weren't very many child- ren in the hspital. There were more infants, babies M inu- bators and one -year-olds in cribs 'perpetually cryitig, than there were ,actualy children. But the evenlng supervisor tookus in to see one small gid. Our photographer snapped a picture and Santa wished her Santa had the most fun with the elderly people. Personally, waSrather saddenedto iee the people in the heSpitel. But Serita had fun with MOSt of them. Buteaot all recognized Santa or else caed. 'n Tom, what are you doing her?" Santa cried. "When 1 wav in dile placte all they'd feed me was liquids." "And the wrong kind, too," replied Toni. "Qive us a kiss," giggled one of the nurse. "Can't. Ci.ot hair on the 1p," snapped Santa. Then Santa gat chummy with another patient, a man he's known for years. Banter Continues "I see your talk hasn't im- proed at all since last year," Laughed. the evening supervisor. "You were here last winter," Sada eried to felloW nate John. "Ole, 1 come in out f' the snow every yea," Jh rbnid,. One old lady in •a chair' by, the window ehipped coyly at Santa, "You dont know m." That ,was enough to pull Santas attention to her room. ii he bounded and declared* Oh yes I do know you, *S- Anderson." "-Ohhh!" she cried. "Who are you?" Santa stood still to let her peen, closely at him, and then just .ba.tfore she could get to thinking, Santa was off again into the .next room..
