From Santa, of course. He knew that Santa delivered toys and climbed down chimneys and made people happy... and he wasn't really happy with it, but then he got a "wonderful awful idea" to try to steal Christmas. Didn't really turn out the way he thought it would. Glad that one turned out well. :)

Why did Father Christmas need Rudolf the Reindeer to use his large growing nose to guide his sleigh?
First, it should be noted that this is a myth, a popular legend that has been told for several hundred years. It is a story about Santa Claus (or Father Christmas) flying through the sky in a magical sleigh, pulled by reindeer, to bring gifts to children all over the world. In the original telling, popularized in a poem called 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, there was no reindeer with a red nose; there were eight reindeer, and they all pulled the sleigh. A ninth reindeer, Rudolph, was added later-- in the 1930s, when a hit song about "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" made him part of the story. But whether he was original to the story or not, the purpose of the reindeer with the nose that was "glowing" (not "growing") was to help Santa/Father Christmas see the homes with the good children, so that he could make sure they received their Christmas gifts.
