a Christmas story. . , Well! Well! The calender says this is Christmas, and then it quotes “Christmas comes but once a year.” One sayin’ cancels the other! If only one day in three hundred sixty five is “chruitmusy” then that , one not christmusy either. If, for three hundred sixty four. days we don’t achieve the spirit, we won’t on the one other day. But my thought is about A Scientific Christmas. Ii was Christmas night. The day h passed pleasantly and quickly in a day-Lmg.’’spirit of enjoyment of friends and presents. Night had fallen early because of the cloud bl: nket, and snow w: s blowing wildly about the dooir and windows. It. was c> Id; put who caied?

Father should have gone promptly to the door,, and wouljl have done so on any ether evening; but now it passed through his mind that surely was mother's friends calling, whoever it was. So he remained quiet, with the rest, until mother finilly moved quietly toward the. door. She could see, even from a great Cistmice, the vague fv: m of a man standing without.

The driving Show pushed suddenly into the room, momentarily obscuring the entrance-way. Then mother spoke in a surprised tone. "Why he is gone! He must have moved fast, maybe he ran. But you cannot see him anywhese; the snowstorm has swallowed him.” . And it was true.
