She's coming home now. to rest with us. You must get well. Our daughter's coming home." "Our daughter's coming home" Santa Claus Brown smiled happily. . . CLOCK struck six. Christmas bells began to peal merrily. The light of dawn, just break ing, sifted Into the living room of the Carter house. Jerry and Mr. and Mrs. Carter , were still sleep ing In their chairs. Upstairs, the children had just awakened. "Come quick," Betty cried to her brothers. "He's been here. I heard himt I saw him! I was going to wake you up but I was. afraid he'd be scared away." "Aw, baloney," said Pete, de risively. "There ain't no Santa Claus. V7e won't have nothln'." They were on their way down stairs. "Gee," exclaimed Joe, "don't talk like that yet Wait and see he might" They came Into view" of the living room. They did not see their Barents nnr .Tm. ,.., awakening. They saw nothing but the toys, and rushed toward them ecstatically. Pete followed slight ly behind the two younger ones, bewildered, ashamed. He viewed the scene and scratched his head. "Pop never could have bought I u mis,- ce exclaimed. "Betty, did you say you saw Santa ClausT No pipe dream?" "I saw him." Betty cried excit edly. "I heard him." She picked up a burlap bag. "Here's his sack. He forgot his sack. Oh, I hope he has other sacks with him. I hope he didn't leave all his toys here by mistake!" She saw her parents and ran over to hug them, smiling up at Jerry. Above the excited clamoring of the children, Jerry said to Mrs. Carter: "Your husband tolls me he used to work at the Palais Royalc." "Yes, he did," she replied. "Then he thought he could make a go of an engineering job, and he could have, too, It it hadn't been for the depression. Building stopped so suddenly. He's a fine worker, my husband, and a man of great courage." Pete ran toward them with his airplane. "Hey, pop, look at that propel ler go round geee!" "How would you like to be floorwalker, Mr. Carter?" Jerry asked him. "I heard pop say he needs one. Work up from there?" "Floorwalker?" Mrs. Carter's tone made the job sound impres sive. "That's fine. Just have to stand and look handsome. That'll be easy for you, dad. And," she put an understanding arm around him, "you won't be all worn out You'll be able to keep right on studying your engineering, till you can get back Into it again." Carter tried to speak, but was interrupted by the children, who came running to him with their arms full of toys. Jerry reached into his pocket and palled out the sprig of mis tletoe he had taken from his home the night before. He got up and hung it over the entrance to the living room. "Good old mistletoe," he smiled. "How about a little real Christmas spirit?" ' The door opened and Alice Banks came In.
