Photograph of Hudson's Bay store toys. Two small boys are bewildered in selection of the particular truck they'd like to find under the tree Christmas Morning. The boys were photographed last week when Christmas shopping accelerated in many stores. Girls too have been faced with difficult selections from the well stocked shelves. This year, traditional type toys as well as new mechanical and electronic models have made the Children's decision even harder. A brief visit to one of the stores last week by Santa only heightened the interest of the smaller fry. Christmas music, decorations and wonderful sights all add to the excitement of the forthcoming day.
