Cash Alger, 4, son of Nick and Jennifer Alger, had his wishlist ready for Santa as did many other children when the Ada Public Library hosted Ole St. Nick at Merry on Main on Monday.
By the time the Jolly Old Man took his seat, the line of children and parents reached from the front door to the back wall of the library. Santa did a lot of listening that evening. Over 200 youth visited the library.
Merry on Main, sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce, drew a large crowd downtown on a pleasant December evening with people viewing the window displays, hearing carolers, enjoying treats, and shopping.
Even reindeer and Mickey Mouse were on hand for the festivities. The railroad park was decked out with many strings of lights on the trees and shrubs. Inside the depot,
Chamber officials collected ballots for Best Window Display. Outside, in the park and along Main, the banners were hung from the lampposts with care.
On Monday, Ada said "Merry Christmas!"
