nw went to a movie and
thought It was a picture widely
advertised and supposed to be very
good, neither of them wu conscious
01 anything that won piace on wie
screen. They were conscious only
of their shoulders touching; of their
hands that clung tightly; of the
fact that they were together here
In a little world all their own. They
lived each other. And something
would have to happen so that they
fioulrf havA each other.
X At the end of the week Felicity
xecelved a letter from Uncle Charles
e had been very happy to hear
4hat things were going so well. He
lelt that Tippy was very fortunate
jo M on me verge 01 oeing aaopi
id by Susan Fleming, and was send
ing her a costume for herself and
ne lor Garrett. Ana ne aaaea:
. . . About your play, I dont
"Tmow why anybody should be
2aurpiised to know you've writ
Aten one. I've read It and I'm not
golng to tell you what I think
-of it for fear you may feel that
am prejudiced: in fact I may
"be. because I am very fond of
you. But I am sending It along
to a friend of mine who Is ac
tively producing. I'll forward you
-his report as soon as I get it.
" Yes. I am very proud of your
3ather. I didn't think he had it
n him. I'm afraid I'll have to
change my opinion of him. at
this late date. That he would te
billing to take a job as a depart
ment store Santa Claus argues
Jhat he must be more of a man
jthan I thought.
Felicity let the letter drop from
her nervous hands and was deep
ly thankful that the children were
Out playing and that she alone
Knew there was a letter from Uncle
Charles. Father a department store
Santa Claus! And that pitifully
brave letter he had written about
b new part in which I am really
Die lead." The apologies for send
ing only ten dollars a week! "An
actor has to dress, you know, and
Maintain a front entertain the
press " Oil, poor Fatherl How he
must hate It!
"She drew a long breath-at last
id tore the letter into minute
bits. Nobody must know. The
ohlldren must go on thinking that
Father was back on his beloved
Broadway; that he was playing a
Qg role "really the lead" In a
dew production. But when at the
and of the week his letter came,
with the usual ten dollar bill en
closed, she could not keep back her
tears, knowing that only through
a genulae sacrifice had he been
able to send even that much.
- The box of costumes arrived. The
ne for Felicity was a hoop-skirted
affair of Civil War days. Garrett's
costume was that of a dandy of the
jVme period. The children were
wild with excitement and admira
tion when Garrett and Felicity put
on a dress rehearsal a few days be
fore Christmas.
Christmas Itself was a time of
mixed pleasure and pain. Felicity
felt the loss of Tippy from their
email circle. But since Denny did
not seem to feel It, and since Ellen
was thriving, gaining a bit of
bloom in her pale cheeks, and Cor
nelia seemed entirely happy, Fe
licity told herself she was being
foolish and tried to let It go at
that.
The problem of cooking a turkev.
when Jason reported that turkeys
were eneaper than any other kind
of meat and they could get one at
even less than the market price,
was unexpectedly solved by Ma
Green the day before Christinas
Ive,
"I knew you'd want to have a
turkey for the kids." she told Fe
licity cheerfully. "And I ain't going
to any bother about Christmas.
Seems kind of silly, when you're
all alone and an old woman. So
you Just help yourself to my kitchen
and cook anything you want. I'll
be out of the house most of the
time till after Christmas."
Felicity thanked her and Ma
Oraen said with a little sigh, "Some
how, I don't ever realize how lone
some I am until around this time
of the year. My husband used to
get awful excited about Ohrlstmas.
and of oouse we had the boys
until our luck ran out." Her kind,
nut-brown face worked a little and
there was a mist of tears In her
ayes.

"Ma Green." she said almost hur
riedly, for she was shy of what
sne was aoout to say ior iear 01 the
way Ma Green would take it. "whv
don't you have Christmas with the
children and me? ' We d love It "
Ma Green studied the alrl shrewd
ly, and suddenly her face softened
and she patted Felicity's arm with
the awkwardness of one unaccus
tomed to demonstration because
there has been no opportunity to
become demonstrative.
"You're a amlghty sweet girl. Fe
licity and It's sweet of you. I'd
love to come only couldn't we have
our dinner here In the house?
There's more room than In the
trailer and I wouldn't feel like I
was crowding you. I'd feel kind of
like you were partly my guests and
I was partly yours. And I could
do some of the cooking. I used
to be a right good cook before I
stopped having any opportunity
ior cooking."
And so it was settled and the
children were thrilled over the pros
pect of a real Christmas "in a
house." The children were wild
with excitement, but, as Ma Oreen
expressed it, "so good It fair hurts
you to see 'em.
you mean Ive well. I've
been too strict with them?" Felicity
asked swiftly. "I've made them
afraid of me?"
"Oood Lord, child, what a crazy
idea," snapped Ma Green. "There
never was children anywhere in the
world that worshipped anybody like
them young-ones do you. It's lust
that they're not wild and shrieking
and under-foot every minute. You
are a mlghtly fine girl, Felicity. The
fellow that gets you is going to be
a lucky man. And I reckon I
wouldn't have to hunt more'n
twenty feet to find him."
