The Christmas Candle Was to Be Her Answer uHA\'E a merry Christmas, Joan. Lovely party!” . “Thanks. Same tn you.” Joan Nichols stood bidding her guests good night. Gordon was last to go. *1 haven't seen much of you' tonight, Joan,” he said, “and tomorrow—" Her mother came up. *I hear you're going home for the holidays.” : “Yes, Mrs. Nichols. Tomorrow morning.” : : Joan broke in. “How about another plece of the cake, Gordon?” | He followed her into the kitchen “l say, Joan, I'm going to miss you terribly.”

“Why, you'll be back right after the holidays.”> : “But, see here, Joan—leave that cake alone and come here. [—" ' “Joan!” Mrs. Nichols was at the door. “The wasxed paper s on the third shelf, dear.” The moment had passed. Joan and Gordon returned to the living room. “Merry . Christmas, Mrs. Nichols!” He opened the door. “Come out here a minute,” he whispered. “Well?” Joan asked and shivered It was snowing. “Joan! You'll eatch your death!” “All right, mother. Good night, Gordon. See you when you get back.” “You bet.” : ‘

He 1-as gone. Joan began straighten ing up after the party. -That holly was all askew, and the mistietoe—what fun it had been! Then it oc curred to her that Gordon hadn’t caught her under it. Come to think, she was surprised that Gordon hadn't given her any Christmas present. Or said good-by more tenderly. Or prom ised to write. : Christmas morning was glorious, except that Joan was so lonely for Gor don. She hated herself for it, when he hadn’t so much as sent her a card. She even decided not to see him when he returned. And then the package came. Inside lay a Christmas candle, red and green, and under it a note: ; : "~ “Dear Joan: 1 couldn’t get it out last night, but I had a ring in my pocket for the dearest girl in all the world. [ love her so that I want to spend this and every other Christmas with her. I'm home for Christmas eve, but Christmas day I'll spend on the train, and that night if this can- - dle is burning in ber window I'll know her answer s ‘yes.’ Light it. Joan. 1 want you for my wife—Gordon."—Helen Gaisfard. (©. 1929 Western Newspaper [Tnion.)

Ethel’s Way of Having a Very Happy Christmas ETHEL BILLINGS looked out at the snow-covered city streets as she rode down to her work two days before Christmas. *“How I wish I had a lot of money,” she said to herself. “Just think of all the things I could do to make people happy! And this year I can't even buy a single gift.” Anxious to get rid of the gloomy thought, she tried tuo become interested in the morning paper. Soon an item caught her eye, a touching story of a family In distress. There were seven children, and the mother had been taken ill. All of the children were young, and the welfare association was sending out the call for some one to come and cook Christmas din ner for the family, mother the chil dren, and give them all a real Christ mas day. The association would fur nish the food and toys. : "~ Ethel theught hard for a moment. Here was a chance to do something; in fact a chance to make a whole family happy at Christmas and there was no money involved. Instantly het mind was made up; she would go out into this home Christmas day and dc everything she could for this family Sin%she had no money to buy gifts and do things this year, this seemed like a real opportunity. : Ethel bad always loved to cook and sht found real joy in preparing din ner for the Parker family. The old est of the children helped her, and by noon the family had won their way into her heart. It was a happy group that sat down to eat, for even Mrs ‘Parker had recovered so far as to be ‘able to sit up in bed ang eat some of the good things Ethel had prepared. And the thought that some one had been kind enough to come and do this .seemed to put new life and heart into the almost discouraged husband. "~ So Ethel found that Christmas will always provide ways and means to make others happy and that an eager 'and willing heart always can serve.— Katherine Edelman. : (©®. 1929 Western Newspaper Unlon.)

Holly and Mistletoe Proved to Be Valuable BETTY looked op into the big wild apple tree, upon which hung immense balls of white-berried mistletoe, And there was holly in abundance just beyond. She could get any or all of it, if she wanted to. She could climb a tree like a squirrel. But what good? She didn’t want any of it. It was too common. She would be glad to give all of it for a five-cent present from a store.

She dug her bare, frosted feet among the leaves. Mistletoe and holly were great things, she saniffed, but they were no good. She might walk right under a cartload, and there would be nobody to kiss her but the crows and squirrels. She could hang some up, and it would only dry and have to be taken down and thrown away. Not any good or use. What was that coming up the mountain path? One of those automobile things away up bere? She had never seen one as close as this. At once she became conscious and shy, and half turned to flee off into the woods. - But she lingered, for curlosity is stronger than fear even among timid folks and creatures. :

The automobile snorted and plugged on, she afterwards expressed it. And then: “Do you know where the Gees Hve?”

“Done moved away more'n a year ago,” answered Betty, a finger in her mouth. “Jake hunted work, an’ the fambly went with him.” = ° “Too bad. There were a number of girls, and we’ve brought them a lot of presents. “O, what lovely mistletoe!” noticing what was above thelr heads for the first time. “I do wish we could get some of it!” “I could, easy,” volunteered Betty.

“Could you, and will you?” eagerly. “I'd like to carry some of those immease bunches home. They’re the finest I've ever seen. Lcok out! Don't falll” for Betty was scrambling swiftly up the tree. Going up, she pulled some long, strong string from bher pocket, kept there for snare purposes. - Soon great bunches of mistlctoe were let K down and grasped by the strangers. . “Now if we could find some holly,” sighed one of them, viewing the mistletoe with delight. : ’ - “I can get you lots,” sald Betty.

“Can you? Here IS a hatchet.” So enough holly was brought to fill the car, with the mistletoe. Then- the presents for the other girls were taken from the car and glven to Betty. “With our thanks besides,” said one of the strangers. “Mistletoe and holly are valuable stuff, after all,” laughed Betty, as she watched them out of sight.—Frank H. Sweet. : (©). 1929. Western Newspaper Unlon.) — SR — His Christmas Gift; He

Had Given and Received CHRISTMAS gifts with bright wrap- ‘ pings, cards and messages with | gay and happy greetings filled Larry ‘ Moore’s dressing room, but the great comedian, lonely and homesick for his loved ones, oblivious of them and of the deafening applause of the audience out in front, stood with tear dimmed eyes, gazing lovingly at the photograph of a lovely woman, : The only gifts he wanted were Betty and the youngsters. The only applause was Betty’s approval. He could picture five-year-old Larry Junfor, In his excitement over “Santy’s” long anticipated visit, and little Betty, almost a year old, whom he bad pever seen. With a sob he dropped his head into his hands. Then a knock at his door and his manager asking if he would give an encore—the audience was demanding it. “Tell them”—he began and stopped. “Walit,” he said. Betty's eyes were pleading with bim, and there was a trace of disappointment in them. “You will always play the game, I know,” she had said onece when he was feeling especially discouraged. Pressing the picture to his lips he promised—*l will play the game, Betty dear; I won't be a quitter.” And he called in a steady voice—. “Coming!” His game was to give and, he would play it. He was before the footlights, greeted by renewed applause. He stood‘ for a moment until the applause had' quieted, then ignoring the questioning! looks from the orchestra he stepped forward and gave his Christmas gift, to the world. Without accompani-| ment he sang “Oh Little Town of, Bethlehem.” . The theater and audi-' ence vanished before him and instead was & church hung with bholly and pine, and there was a Christmas tree,f and he heard a boy’s fresh tenor voice, singing these same words. o A deep reverent silence was over all as he finished, and on the singer’s. face was the glorified smile of a vietor. As he left the stage a burst of applause went with him. Oblivious of those waiting in the wings to greet him he hurried back to tell Betty he had played the game. And there was his reward—on the table was a tele-! gram, Betty and the youngsters would, be with him tomorrow. Tears of joy blinded him—he had played the game —and won—he had given and recelved.—Blanche Tanner Dillin. : (©. 1929. Western Newspaper Union.)

WOMEN DRIVERS SEEK COURTESY — S That's Why She’s Bad Driver, sa%s ~ Montana Cop in Explanation of Diftieunlty. : Why is it tha tthes women—some women rather-—are atrocious drivers? Why do they refuse fo observe traffic rules- or fail to give way to others when. they haven't the right of way? A. L. Anderson, police lieutenant in charge of the traffic division of Great Falls, Montana, thinks he has solved this momentous question, Unconsciously, many women drivers expect the same homage, deference and precedence from men that they are accorded when afcot, Anderson believes,

A man tips his hat to a woman, opens the door for her, picks up her handkerchief, surrenders his seat in a crowded street car, stands up as she enters the room and holds her chair for her when she sits down. Why then reasons woman’s subconscious mind, shouldn’t she receive the same plivileges, figuratively speaking, when she is driving an automobile? When this type of woman masters her complex, Anderson claims, she is a far better driver than man. But when she expects the same courtesies of the road she receives in the drawing room, she is the world’s worst.
