Tnetw Dec 21, 1954 --. . . ... - ;"--...' i - Cancer Qaims fcH.Potter of The story to far: Santa, Steve and Nancy have decided to re fin ish eld toys that are no longer wanted so they can get enough toy for children at Christmas. However, so far they haven't been able to figure out a way to collect the toys. ) i " " ; CHAPTER 9 Santa climbed out of the sleigh and put an arm around Steve and an arm around Nancy! He leaned close to them and said, "I guess 111 have to tell you how to call toys. You will have to promise to forget it when you are through using it because toys are not sup ' posed to move about for boys and girls, you know. 1 , "I wasn't going to tell you un less I had to, but I can see that you won't find any toys on your own and I haven't got time to call them all myself. So here is the word." - : -t And with that he leaned close to Steve's ear and whispered. Then he leaned close to Nancy's ear and whispered. Unusual Sound Just what he said, I can't re peat here. But it was a strange and unusual sound and Steve and Nancy's eyes opened wide when they heard it "Try it, and see if it works,1 Santa told Steve. Steve called, not loudly, but just as! loud as you might call to another person across the room. Nothing happened. Steve was about to call again when he heard a window slide open and then close. Across the street? came a . little dog with an ear half gone. Only it wasn't a real dog at alL It was a toy, stuffed dog. "Santa," the dog yipped, "Did you call me?" "Does anyone play, with you any more?" Santa asked. "No," the dog said sadly. "No one even knows I'm around." Nancy Tells Plan r "Good, then you are just whai we want, Nancy said, clapping her hands. "Hop into Santa's big bag and we will take you to the North Pole and make you new again." ; "Just, a moment, Nancy," San ta said. "I say, old fellow, do you have any friends any other toys who will not be missed? "Why, sure I have," the dog barked, "lots of them. They just cant hear as well as I can, even though I have one ear half gone. They didn't know you were call ing them." I WtiSullivi The little toy dog bounded away and Santa told the children. We ; haven't much ' tune, , you know. We had better plan bow we are going to get toys and. de cide which ones can go back with us." .! x j Santa Calls Toys "Steve, you and Rag Doll go around the neighborhood calling the' toys. Then you tell the toys come here. I will go calling toys too. Nancy will stay here and talk to the toys. She will have the job of deciding whether the owner will miss the toy. 'And, Nancy, if the owner is ever going to want that toy again, it has to stay where it belongs. Another thing, we want all kinds of toys. not just dolls. You may have to send some of the dolls back after the toys that can't run or roll out to meet you."; 1 Santa went one way calling and Steve and Rag Doll went the other way. Almost every time Steve called, a toy would answer. Many of them would see Steve and -then run back into hiding for they all knew they weren't sup posed to be called by a little boy, but then when the toy would peek' back around the corner of the house or out from under a shrub it would see Rag Doll and then come crawling out of its hid ing place. i Bear Questions Steve "What are you doing calling us?" one bold little Teddy bear asked Steve. . Just go over to Santa's sleigh on the next street 'and my sister will answer you questions," Steve told the bear. Soon a regular stream of toys was going toward the sleigh' and lining up waiting to be question ed by Nancy. Little toy trains were rolling down the street and whole box-full of blocks was being carried along on the back of a toy elephant A toy fire en gine came, racing along towing an old c$r. Several pair of old skates came rolling 1 down the street, their rusty wheels squeak ing. 1 "Well fix all that soon," said Santa to one of them. ! Nancy was having the time of her life. As each toy came up to her she would question it very closely.; r rwnen ls.tne last time your master, played with you?" she would ask. And "Are you 'sure you were put where you wouldn't be found again?" - Naughty Mama Doll One saucy mama doll said, I .-. Motordlak L Radio J IMIMI ALL-IN-OU G .

"Your little mistress can love you. just as much with three other dolls as she would if you were the only one she had. She would probably miss you ter ribly if you were gone.

Next please," she . said, turning her head away from the naughty dolL As more and more toys kept hopping into the bag, Nancy be gan to get worried. Santa was no where in sight and the bag was getting more full all the time. It began to look as if they were going to have a flood of toys. What's more the toys were jab bering away so happily in the bag that they were making a fearful racket i "I'm afraid they will wake up the neighborhood," Nancy thought "Oh, well, we asked for toys and we are certainly getting them." i ( I Tomorrow: A Joyful Reunion Adult Education Classes Listed, ; tm To Start Jan. 3 f : Several classes of interest to businessmen and their employes are to be available in the Adult Education Program of the Salem Public Schools, says ' George D.
