lights within flashed upon them, they
looked like sheets of pearl and threw
pale CLEAN on the snowy coverIet
without. 1 was determined to see Kris
Kringle. So after l had been snugIy
tucked into bed, 1 crept out and
crouched down by the frosted window
to watch. I put my tongue upon the
window to make a place to see through.
1t was now nearing the midnight hour.
1 began to feel drowsy, and-I fell
asleep. Next morning about $50
o'clock the family doctor was sum-
mOned in hurry. frankie was very
i'll; the doctor pronounced the case
tonsilitis. My throat was so sore
could not talk nor eat. 1 really think
that was the most memorable Christ
mas eve l have ever spent. BY the
way, did not see Kris Kringle at all;
and it was not until the 31st of Decem-
Der that I was presented with my
