Synopsis: Steve, and Nancy are very hard at work in Santa's hure offlee trying to answer all the problems that have arisen since they took over from St Nick so he could have a rest. CHAPTER XI Cteve and Nancy rushed to the telephone tree in Santa's office. It was ringing so hard the branch es shook. They each took off' a phone, which didn't quiet the tree, but it stopped shaking. The dwarf on the other end of the line started talking before Steve could even get the 'phone to nis ear, Dut ne aid catch enough of what the little fellow was say ing to know that something had gone wrong in the motor car di vision. "Slow down so I can hear what you are saying " Steve pleaded. "It's th tacks." the dwarf iiH "Someone has dropped a box of xacKs onthe floor and all the little racing cars hav flat tiroo We haven't time to repair all these cat tires. What shall we do?" "Wellliy said Steve, "Gosh, I don't know what to do. I'll think it over and call you back." . Steve looked over atancy and he looked worried. "What's the trouble?" Steve asked. "They say half the typewriters thev have readv to send tn Alhnv won't write English. They lust write fitparusn. What can you do bout a thing like that?" Steve hardly had time to say "I don't know" before a messenger dwarf came, bursting nto the of fice out of breath. "Pardon me for coming in with out knocking, but it's so impor tant.' he said. "Thirtv rtf tha dolls are sick and I can't find out what is the matter with them. What will I do?" "Oh, the poor dolls," Nancy aia. "Steve, we must help them, but rm sure mat I don't knew what Is good for dolls. Do they have stomach aches?" - "I'm sure it isn't that. Miss Nancy," the dwarf answered, "Be cause dolls don't have stomachs. I must get back to them now, but If yeu have time, please come over to laok t them." All this time, the telephone tree had not stopped ringing. Having free moment, Steve picked up receiver. "Square soap bub bles?," he said. "Whoever heard f square soap bubbles." "Yes, that's just the trouble," ald the voice on the other end of the line, "No one has ever heard of square soap bubbles and they won't believe ft What's mere, children may get cut on the sharp edges." "Of all the silly things." Steve aid, turning to Nancy. '"TheVve got some bubble pipes that won't Wow anything except square soap bubbles." ' "What on earth do they think we can do about a thing like that," Nancy said, sighing. "It seems to me that we're getting ah awful lot more problems than we ere getting answers." Mare and Mare Questions If you could have watched Steve and Nancy In Santa- Claus's big of fice you would have felt sorrier and sorrier for them. It seemed like everyone wanted them to straighten out problems, and the more problems there were, the more confused the children be came. They were hungry by now, but they were so busy telling people they didn't know how to help them that they didn't have time to eat. "No . more smoke?" Nancy said Into the telephone. "You say the trains have run out of smoke?" "Now the trains are out of moke," Nancy said to Steve. "I've . gofc so many troubles I can't trice time, to listen to yours, too," Steve Said rather crossly, for small bovs can -pa t milu r when they are tired and hungry. "If you won't help, I'll just teE them to forget their old smoke,' Nancy answered, for little girls get just as tired and hungry as little boys. "No," said Steve suddenly Into his 'phone receiver, "I don't care if your old nolka dot horses are wet and I don't care if their color is running. Let it run until it gets ail tired out." "I'm not soinff ta answer an. other telephone," said Nancy, sink ing into a cnair. -Nor L . said Steve. Just then a messenger onened the door and shouted, "A toy machine gun is running wild and shooting all over the room. What Brill M Hr"" Steve looked over at Nancy. She had her head in her hands. He felt like crying too. They were too two tired children who had found out that being Santa Claus can be a lot of work. (Tamomw.
