SANTA SAID OfNTLV CHAPTER 17 A Merry Christmas to All The Santa Land folk gathered around poor Santa and wept with terrible grief. Mrs. CI a us came knelt beside Santa. "You've been working" too hard!" she cried. "You are Just faint for food!" But even as she said it she knew it wasn't so Santa was dying and the white powder dusted on his shoulders told them why. Only Flournoy had such a powder which could cause a man to die. The wicked elf had sworn to revenge himself and now he had in spite of Santa's invisible barrier. But what of Danny? He stood on his fine strong legs and oh, he wished he were crippled again! "It's my fault," he wept. 'I didn't know." Then he told them through his tears how Fournoy had given him the powder to sprinkle on Santa and how he had not known that Flournoy hated Santa or that the powder was bad else he nev er, never, never, would have con sented toA have his legs cured. No one blamed him. Santa least of all. Lying there Santa smiled with his eyes at the little boy though he couldn't say a word and couldn't move a finger. Well, all this time the Snow Man was standing there and his heart was just broken in two. For here were his two best and dearest and only friends: one dying and the other wretched for ever. And it wasn't any use wonder ing what he could do for what under the stars could a Snow Man do? But he didnt have to wonder anyway for suddenly, right there under the stars, he knew without vjr WANTS X PLACE ANOTHER 40,000 ORDER.

Without a word, he took off Santa's old stocking cap and put his own in Its place. , "Not not screamed Danny ' la horror for well he knew' the se- -cret of the Snow Man's hat. And Santa's eyes, too,: showed alarm and suddenly he raised his hands to remove the hat.' But the Snow Man shook his head. "It would never work for me again." he said gently. Then he smiled at Danny and turned and walked away. , WelL the color came back to Santa's face, his lips moved, his hands grew strong: he was allva ' h, very, very much alive again! . Mrs. Claus cried and Santa . beamed but Danny, torn how be tween grief and rapture, rushed oil to the bnow Man woo stood quiet and alone a Little way; off. , "You shouldn t have1 bh, you shouldn't have!" moaned, Danny. But the Snow Man said noth ing at all. i ' : i ' - , Santa wearing the Snow Man a splendid red hat, came up and ' put his arms around the little boy's shoulder. ft. "He is just a snow man, now, j he said gently. "When he took pff j his hat he broke the charm which made him real. Now he has passed the charm to me." ? Tears rolled down Danny's , cheeks. "He was my only) friend." Santa smiled. "You will have , many, many friends now for re member your crippled leg Is well. And you know, I think the Snow -Man will be happier now. He'll always be standing here In Santa Land and never melt away."- i Danny smiled, too. "Santa" he said finally. "Don't you ever take off the Snow Man's hat" "Never," promised Santa, And . think he never has. A Now the Santa Land folk squealed with impatience. "Come . on! It's time to go. You'll never make it if you don't hurry!" f Thev bust ed Danny and Santa Claus into the sleigh and pushed the enormous bag of toys in after them. r Merry Christmas!" the; brown ies and fairies called as the great. red sleigh circled in the air above them. . fi . "Merry Christmas!" cried Dan ny, peering over the side and waving a last farewell- at the plump old snow man shining un der the stars. And Santa, pulling at the reins and laughing merrily joined In with "A Merry Christmas to all!' THE END fi 5 Swegle Couples Sientl: Holidays in California?
