And this year he'll bring me" There was long
pause. Oh, he'll know and think OF something fine
" But how'll he know that you are here?" demanded
Terry. He never to bring us things"
oh he'll know and he'll just drive over the SHOWS
with eight tiny reindeer" The little hands
clapped with joyful expectation.
But, Bob he can't; interposed the practical Mag
gle "The snow here is smooth enough, and if he's
got good he might get that all right, but
the mountain road is blocked No one can get up that
before spring"
But he will know he will" asserted Bob. "You
Just wait and see. It's only week to watt
The eager voice, the eager light in the childs eyes,
followed the OByrnes home that night and they lay
awake long, wondering about this strange visitor who
always came to Bob at Christmas.
"He won't know the way, I'm sure" Terry's
last comment and Maggie went to sleep to dream that
she was cutting wide trail down the mountainside
that Santa Claus could bring his precious pack up to
Bob
The week had almost drawn to close when, one
morning the little crippled lad greeted them with
shouts Of Joy.
"Ive thought of it." he cried. "Ive written letter
to Santa Claus-thats what my mamma always had me

do at homeland I've told him what l wanted. You'd
never guess. And-and, maybe, he can't find another
one but" here his voice fell almost to a whisper
want stone bowl just like Terrys."
ooh, but he couldn't find one" cried Terry There
aren't any more in the world
He patted his treasure lovingly it lay on Bob's
knee.
"Well I've written and we've only got to wait and
see and if you don't mind" with apologize glance
at Maggie, eve must get the room ready for him
"But howl" quericd both children.
"Why with green branches, you know, and-and red
berries, l think, and my mamma used to have some
pretty red ribbons that she tied on the branches
Branches OF these trees out here, do you mean?"
eyes, long pieces. Sometimes he brings a Christ
mas tree all covered with gold balls and candy. He
did once to me- but don't think he'll bring one here
because you see, we've got many trees ourselves
and suppose there not enough children here for
a party, either, and you mnst have party when you
have a tree"
Long branches of fir and pine were gathered by the
O'Byrnes and under Bob's eager directions were
placed around the room. few gorgeous scarlet snow
blossoms were discovered by Terry and greeted by the
cripple with shouts of gee Then Maggie found among
her treasures scarlet flannel waist that had been dis
carded by Mrs OByrne, and this she cut into strips
and tied to the fragrant branches, always according to
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-19

Meters, with shrug picked up some of the blankets
and bedding, and Terry dragging a couple OF tin
buckets, followed in the dusty wake of the men. But
Maggie stood by the cripple and later, when the men
carried him, still his chair, to his new home, she
walked beside him little too shy to talk, but wanting
to protect and comfort him.
This was the beginning of Bob Harris's life at Ho-
gans Mills Itw not an evenul existence best, but
the child had learned that patient waiting his part
in whatever life surrounded him, and he found no
fault with the things at Hogans than he had in the big
city full OF people where he had lived before. In fact,
he happier now, because the two little C'Byrnes
were with him constantly. He had gained access to
their inner hearts, and, when he had persisenty re-
jected Mrs. O'Byrnes sentimental sympathy and old
Mrs. Monaghans loud-yoiced pity, he was left to him
self and the children. All day long they played in his
cabin while his silent, moro5e father worked at the
mill Maggie gave him his dinner and through the
long mornings and afternoons they invented quiet
games in which he could Join while he told them tales
of the outside world into which they had never ven
tured.
Bob, who was almost nine years old, could read.
Maggie could read too, in falterng, laborous way,
but the words she spelled them out failed to pro-
duce the brilliant pictures wrought by Bob's gbber
tongue Terry, who only seven, did not know
letter from another He had no books, no pic

lures, no possessions of any kind only one but
that one was so marvellous, wonderful, that it
made up for all the other deficiencies 1t was stone
mortar unearthed from old Indian camp but the
stone peste had been found close hand, and Terry
had been the finder. To his small mind these were,
indeed treasures. He secreted them, knew
where; took them out to exhibit them to Maggie,
sometimes to please her, sometimes to excite jealous
fury. Now to Maggie's amazement, the stones were
brought daily Bobs cabin, for Terry had that
the nervous little hands of the invalid loved to play
with the strange toys. Sometimes acorns were
crushed and bread made from the meal; sometimes
dust was washed and the tiny particles OF mica that
glisened in the sand greeted with shreks OF
" Gold! goldl gold!". And while other games
were in progress the mortar and peste lay on Bob's
chair where he could reach them easily. Terry
guarded his treasure no less carefully than before,
however, and always took home at night, never once
forgetting it, allowing Maggie to carry it.
The summer and autumn had worn away. The mills
were closed the camp deserted for O'Byrne the
watchman and half dozen woodmen Among the
latter was Harris. Communication with the outside
world had ended with the first big snowstorm and it
was a white earth on which the children lived.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-19

Bobs ideas of the fitness of things because to poor
Maggie the waist dirty and faded, had been an almost
sacred possession but into strips, had value
artistic otherwise
While the active children worked Transforming the
fororn cabin into enchanted palace for Santa Claus
Bob dreamed and talked.
He's big and strong you know, and can walk any
where He just has his high sleigh to carry his pack
and he has such kind face"
"You never saw him, did your" gasped Terry.
"No" admitted Bob not exactly. But you see,
know how he looks kind and pleasant and happy, not
like the people here but always smiling
Little Terry's wde short face expanded into grin,
and he puckered his eyes into fanced imitation of
Bob's imagined saint
Oh, not like that" screamed Bob. But then,
Terry you couldn't look like him, you know, because
he is old. He used to take things to my mamma when
she was a little grl-beautiiu dolls and things. Did
you ever have doll, Maggie?"
And Maggie, blushing at the remembrance OF little
ragged bundle that had once lived under her pillow,
answered:
No; that is not real doll. You see, Bob, Santa
Claus doesn't know about us"
"We1, he will now at least, think he will" Bob's
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-19

OByrne had moved down from his hillside cabin to
the boarding g-house, so Maggie and Terry had only
short distance to traverse to the Harris cabin
Through icy winds and over snow-drifts they made
their daily trips and the games and stories progressed
as gaily as they had in
"Why it must be almost Christmas" explained Bob
one day, emerging from a contemplation OF the fire.
"Itll be Christmas in week." agreed Terry. q
heard Murphy say this morning"
"And Santa Claus will come!"
"Who's Santa CLAUSE" demanded both the
O'Byrnes.
"Why Santa Claus? Why, he's just Santa Claus
you know. He comes at Christmas and brings you
toys and things" The little voice very eager.
" He comes down the chimney and puts things in your
stockings Don't you have Santa Claus here?"
No, never him."
No, never heard OF him."
So many things had up that the little children
had never heard Of that Bob had grown quite used to
his position of instructor. Now, however, he entered
into his explanations with unusual ervor, for the jolly
old saint had been very dear him in the bygone days
at home with mama" The Night before Christ
mas was repeated again and again with copious notes
and examples.
"And he always knows what you want most Year
before last he brought this chair and you see how
l needed that. Last year he brought me my books.
