Copyright, IOCS, by American Press Asso ciation.! THE little boy and the little girl sat at the breakfast table eat ing oatmeal and milk. Their papa said to their mam ma: "A Christmas goose Is the best thing there is. This year we must hare a Christmas goose." The little girl looked up at the little boy and Bmlled, and the little boy smiled back. After breakfast the little girl and the little boy put on tbelr caps and coats and mit tens and started off for the barn yard. 1 ney met a big, old, fat duck. "Are you the Christmas goose?" asked the little girl. The big, old. fat duck shook her bend. Tbey met a big, old, fat hep. "Are you the Christmas goose?" asked the little boy. But the big. old, fat ben shook ber bead. PUTTINO THE WHEATU ON TUE GOOSE. Tbey met a big, old, fat guinea hen. "Are you the Christmas goose?" ask ed the little boy. The big, old, fat guinea ben shook her bend. They met a big. old, fat white goose.- "Are you the Christmas goose?" ask ed the little girl. And the big, old, fat white goose nodded her bead and fluffed her featli ers and stepped proudly with her flat, yellow, webbed feet. "Oh, goody!" shouted the little boy. "We've found our Christmas goose al ready." "Oh, oh. oh! I know something," said the little girl, and she ran to the house just as fast as she could go. And when she came back sue bad a lovely little holly wreath tied with beautiful long fed and green ribbons. . They put the wreath over the head of the Christinas goose, and each held one of the r f b b o u s. The Christmas goose waddled along proudly. The guinea liens piped, the ducks quacked and the hens clucked when they saw this fine sight. The little boy and the little girl led and drove the proud Christ mas goose out of the .barnyard to the grecii grove where all the lit 1 1 e Christmas trees grow. "WAIT A MINUTE, CliltlbTilAS GOOSE." "We must have a Christmas tree for our Christmas goose," suld the little girl. "Yes, yes, Christmas goose," said the little boy, "you wait right here for us. Don't you muss your holly wreath, and dou't you muss your ribbons." The proud Christmas goose waddled geutly to show how careful she would be. The little boy aud the little girl ran away fust to get the things for the Christmas tree. The little girl brought back some ears of red aud yellow corn and a buuch of wheat aud barley heads aud a pocketful of oats. The little boy brought back two cab bages aud a yellow pumpkin and some gruln. The Christmas goose became so excited wheu she saw these things that she waddled too fust. "Walt a minute, Christmas goose!" cried the little boy, and he placed his things on the ground uear the tree. "It Isn't quite time. Christmas goose," cried the little girl, aud she fastened her things on the tree. "Now, Christmas goose," said the lit tle girl, "we will go and Invite all your menus to come and see our beau tiful tree." So the little girl Dlcked un J&rl uor rlbbou. nl 7XVfV Ue little boy picked up his rib bon, and they led and drove the Christmas goose back to the barn yard. But it was hard work, for tho Christmas goose wanted to turn her bead nil the time to look fS nt the i M. tree. Al 9 yard at the Christmas At the baru- all the coik. SEK ovn chickens and nil cuhistmas trek!- the ducks nud nil the guluea hens stood still to admire the tine Christmas goose iu her holly wreath aud ribbons. "Oh, chickens!" said the little boy. "Oh, ducks!" said the little girl. "Ob. guinea bens!" said the little boy. "Come, see our Christmas tree!" said the little girt. The chickens clucked, and the ducks quueked, au.J the guinea hous piped. j and tbey all spread themselves out iu I a long row tad ran around aud around 1 Jl& nod around after the little girl and the little boy driving their Christmas goose. The little boy and the little girl scattered corn and wheat and oats all over the ground around their Chrlstma:i tree. The chickens and the ducks aud the guinea heus ate and ate and ate. The Christinas goose ate, too, but she ate very proudly and THE best pcn op all. raised ber head every few minutes to shake ber holly wreath. Papa and mamma came out to see them. "Ilelgh-ho! Whnt's this?" said pnpa. "Mercy! What's all this?" said mamma. "This is the Christmas goose!" shouted the little boy. "And the Christmas goose's Christ mas tree!" said the little girl. "And the Christmas goose's friends!" said the little boy. "Yes, and It is quite true, papa," said the little girl. "A Christmas goose Is the best thing there Is! Why, a Christmas goose Is just lots of fun!" "Yes. mamma," said the little boy, "a Christmas goose Is the best fuu of all." ' Christmas Chimes In Many Climes. Christmas Is always u season of good wishes and loving kindness. In America almost nil little children hang, up their stockings ou Christmas eve, to be filled by kind old Simla Onus. In Germany they make more of Christmas than we do In America. Everywhere the Christmas ' tree is used. If a family is too poor to have a whole tree, a single branch only will stand Iu a conspicuous place, hung with the few simple gifts. A week before Christmas St. Nicho las visits the children to find out who have been good enough to receive the gifts the Christ Child will bring them on Christmas eve. j It is a very usual thing to sec on a Overman Christmas tree, way up in the vWy topmost branch, an image or doll representing the Christ Child, while below are sometimes placed other Images representing angels with out spread wings. After the tree Is lighted the family gather round it and sing a Christmas hymn. In England almost every one who can do so has a family party on Christmas eve. Young and old jolu iu the games, many of which - belong espoclully to Christmas time. From the ceiling of one of the rooms a large buuch of mistletoe Is bung. If any little maid Is caught stunding under it the one who catches her has a right to take a kiss from ber rosy Hps. In Holland the little Dutch girl puts her wooden shoe In the chimney place ready for gifts, just as the little Amer ican girl hangs up her stocking. And so In some way all over the Christian world od the eve of the twenty-fifth day of December the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ Is cele brated. Everywhere the Christinas chimes ore ringing out the message the angels brought to Bethlehem Tence on earth, good will to men." LOOKING OUT FOR SANTY. By GERALD PRIME. My mamma, when we build house, - Wants plenty closets in it. She says she'll tell the architeck That's how he must begin it. our My papa says he doesn't care A fig for big clothespresses, But what he wants is plenty room, And that he'll have, he guesses. Sat I don't care how little 'tis, A palace or a shanty, I want a chimney big enough To let in dear old Santy! The Barber's Joke. Christmas morning and the barber very busy. "I'd rather shave ten Germans than one American." The rubicund brewer in the chair smiled broadly through the lather. "Goot." he chuckled. "Dot vos right! But vy?" The barber took a firmer bold upon bis victim's Dose as be replied: "Ten Germans pay me a dollar and a half one A morion n ouly 15 cents." And you could buve beard the ther mometer drop. Popcorn I "If Santa Claus has corns the same as grandpa," suld a wee girl the other day, "I flnk he'd be 'frald to come down the chimney over a hot fire for fear his corns would pop." Santa Claus' Revenge. Belated conies advice tonight That, "without proper cause," Two foolish boys went on a Btrlke Against old Santa Claus. They sent him written word that he Must take two trips a year. The first an early one to see What children wanted here. ' They said his work of late was bad. They criticised his taste. They sold it made them very sad Those presents gone to waste! They asked him why he thought a boy Would want a Teddy bear. They said It seemed ne could employ Much better judgment there. They wrote him frankly what they thought, A protest in each line. They told him that they thought he ought To sell out and resign. They covered reams of paper then To tell him what to do The how. the which, the what, the when. They carefully went through And then they told him what to bring For each boy In their town. And for themselves "Oh, everything!" Was Just what they put down. They thought the saint was far too old To understand their scheme. And each one bought a bag, to hold Their presents. It would seem. But when they woke on Xmas morn With "What did Santa bring?" Why, Just as sure as you are born. He hadn't left a thing! STACY E. BAKER. Lunch and mexU sarved all hours at Jlrs. M. L.
