Westwood, Calif., Dec. 26.-Santa Claus made his annual visit to "The Home of Paul BLlnyan", and was able to state upon his departure that there 'ivas not a child in the town who had not received at least one present and a box of candy.

Under the direct supervision of H.A. Smith funds rvere raised and the community Christmas tree was set up in the lobby of the Westwood Theater. A free show of the latest talking comedies and cartoons filled every one of the 1100 seats with excited children and their adult guardians.

After the show as the children filed out each one was given a box of candy and a toy. Dolls and dishes for the girls, mechanical toys and guns for the boys. Over 90C) children r,vere taken care of at the theater and the surplus toys and ,candy later distributed wherever the committee could find a child who had not been able to attend.

In addition to the children's Christmas, 85 "Cheer Baskets" containing Christmas dinners lor 456 persons were distributed.

The funds were raised by contributions from various lodges and community bodies with The Red River Lumber Company furnishing all purchases at half price.

Weyerhaeuser Sales Co. Hold Annual Stockholders and Trustees Meeting

Spokane, Wash-The Weyerhaeuser Sales Company had its annual stockholders' meeting and annual trustees' meeting in Spokane, Washington, December 17. George R. Little of Winona, Minn., was elected as the new trustee to replace George S. Long of Tacoma, who died August 2. With this exception, all of the trustees were re-elected and all of the officers re-elected.
