FANTASY LAND, U.S.A. 1964
The magic dream-like village
that nestles in a corner of the
fourth floor of Joskes of Texas
in San Antonio has become
known far and wide by folks of
all ages as Fantasy Land. A fab-
ulous land it is too, with hund-
reds of little creatures busily
working, getting ready for the
big day when Santa leaves his
workshop to make his yearly
visit to Texas.
The first think you see when
you enter this enchanted land is
a cute cuddly bear sitting in the
window of his own little house.
He gives you a hearty welcome
and invites you into his magic
domain of Fantasy. Another a-
mazing thing about the little
talking bear is that he has greet-
ed guests from all over the
world in their native tongue. He
speaks and can carry on a con-
versation in English, Spanish,
French, German, and Italian.
After leaving the little talk-
ing bear you pass through a
magic gate into a deep deep
wood of ice trees and crystal
snow. Suddenly you hear music
and a voice from nowhere tells
you the wonderful story of how
an old wood chopper discovered
Fantasy Land. As the story is
told, from out of nowhere the
scene appears through the trees
and the voices of the happy char-
acters of Fantasy Land can be
heard calling you to follow the
path to their wonderful land of
Fantasy.
As you stroll into the magic
village you will be amazed by
the thousands of little lights
that play to the music. From
the limbs of the giant trees of
ice and snow, dancing lights
sparkle and glitter as children
sing and music plays. When tiny
high notes play, little blue lights
flutter in time.
When big fat low notes boom,
pink lights blink their tempo;
and when medium size notes
play, white lights twinkle their
melody. It is as if the lights
themselves made up a giant a-
chestra of magic musicians in
miniature.
Now you are actually entering
the miraculous city square of
Fantasy Land, complete with de-
lightful shops and enchanting
shop keepers. Wandering throu-
gh the avenues of this make-
believe land, you visit the shoe
maker, the tailor, the book print
er, and the candle maker. The
delightful Bonnet Emporium San
ta’s Stable, and the University
of Fantasy Land are gay land
marks along the way to the beau
tiful church of Every Fith. As
you circle the square, you pass
the busy Post Office and the
Sweet Shop where you see the
roly poly bear bakers in a store
full of goodies. Next, the busi-
est of all the toy makers shop,
where Santa’s helpers are man-
ufacturing the toys and dolls
that are the delight of good lit-
tle boys and girls.
You pass now into the Plaza
and to the Depot of the Magic
Train. All aboard, and away it
goes with as many as twenty-
four youngsters in a single trip.
The little train with glittering
engine and fantastic caboose,
travels gaily around the town.
One fifth of a mile around it
goes, then stop! All aboard! A-
gain, and away it goes!
All the wonder of Fantasy
Land are only a prelude to the
most fascinating- experience of
childhood: the visit with Santa
Claus himself. The merry old
gentlemen makes his Texas res-
idense in a beautiful, big fairy
tale castle right in the middle of
Fantasy Land.
Back to the Plaza and a re-
freshing stop for a soft drink
and some popcorn or a hot dog
while the children chat with a-
nother talking bear. This little
chap is perched on a window
ledge atop a wonderful magic
house. When a token is dropped
into his mail box the little bear
sends a surprise from Sonta in-
to the arms of the waiting child.
As you leave Fantasy Land
the cheery voice of your host
calls out, “Good bye, Merry
Christmas, come back again.” or
in some cases “Adios, feliz Navi-
dad.” But no matter which lang
uage it is in, he means, “It was
a joy and an honor to have you
as our guest in the land of magic
and fun, Fantasy Land.”
Beginning Thursday, Novem-
ber 19th. Joske’s will remain
open Monday through Saturday
until 9:00 P. M. Joske’s will
close Christmas Eve at 5 P. M.
BENEAN COUPLES CLASS
The monthly meting of the
Benean Couples Class, First Bap-
tist Church, met Saturday night,
Nov. 21st in “The Lyndal Cole”
home. Six couples and guests,
Col. E. B. Tilley, Sunday School
Supt., Mrs. Tully and her moth-
er, Mrs. Howard were present.
Guest speaker, Col. Tully gave
an interesting devotional and
«prayer on “Thankfulness”. Mrs.
Tully recited one of her favorite
poems, “Intreg.”
After the business meeting
the host and hostess serve prune
cake, variety of cookies, nuts
and coffee. The home was attrac
tively decorated for the season
of “Thanksgiving.”
We long for the good old days,
when all there was to worry a-
bout was what to do with dis-
carded razor blades.
Per capita consumption of
candy last year was 17.'6 pounds.
