Yes in Indiana, There Is A Santa Claus

Two parks in one

DEAR BLOGGER: I am 7 years old.

Some of my little friends say there is no such place as Santa Claus.

My Poppa says, ‘If you see it in ON A BLOG,  then it’s so.’

Please tell me the truth; is there a Santa Claus?

Wildebeest (★★★★★) and Mammoth (★★★★1/2)

Your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except what they see on YouTube.

The Legend (★★★★)

Yes, in INDIANA, there is a Santa Claus. It exists as certainly as adventure and excitement and fun exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy.

Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus.

There would be no childlike exuberance then, no delight, no exhilaration to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished

Thunderbird (★★★★★)

Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in water coasters! The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see a winged roller coaster before? Of course not, but that’s no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world.

The Voyage (★★★★1/2)

You may ride all the rides at the park to try and find this magic, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man could tear apart. Only courage, bravery and spirit can push aside that curtain and view the fun and excitement beyond.

Is it all real?

Ah, in INDIANA, in all this world there is nothing else more real and abiding.

No Santa Claus! Thank God! It exists, and it exists forever. A thousand years from now, nay, ten times ten thousand years from now, it will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.
