We often condemn what we don't understand. In this short tale from L.

A tale that seems to encourage the old adage "walk a mile in another man's shoes."

Santa Claus lives in the Laughing Valley, where stands the big, rambling castle in which his toys are manufactured.

One would think that our good old Santa Claus, who devotes his days to making children happy, would have no enemies on all the Earth; and, as a matter of fact, for a long period of time he encountered nothing but love wherever he might go.
