NV Christmas Tree.


BY William H. Campen, 541 South
Twenty-sixth Street.
Everything was white and the snow
was falling fast when a boy rushed
through our yard carrying my Christ
mas tree. The white ground, the snow
covered boy and the tree, which he bore
upon his right shoulder, reminded me
of Christmas.
The next day I fixed the tree a stand,
after which l placed it in front Of our
bay window. Under and around its
foundation spread a carpet on which
were pictures of Santa with his reindeers
pulling heavy loads of toys.
In the evening we decorated the tree.
On the central and uppermost branch we
fastened a cross of golden t!nsel From
this, downward, extended strings of gol-
den, greenish and silver bells. Strings
of golden and silver tinsel extended from
the same place. Artificial oranges, pears
peaches and birds were scattered through
out the branches. Here and there were
candles of various color. Holly branches
with red berries on them showed
through the rest of the things. Sticks
OF candy in the shape of canes and candy
baskets bung from many branch.
Christmas morning came. went to
church and on returning learned that
Santa had made his round. The tree
was now almost too full. Even around
its trunk many present had been laid

II was getting dark and two little chill
dren were playing in the house, when
soon their mother came In and said:
It's time for bed, children"
The children said, Mamma, is Santa
Claus going to bring us any toys?"
The mother said that they should hang
up their stockings and then go to bed,
and when they would get up in the morn
ing they would find out.
So the children did as they were told
and the next morning they saw their
stockings piled with toys.

Mr.. Jones was walking very slowly that

could help somebody. Every year he had
helped someone, but this year he had not
thought of anything. As he was walking
he met a friend OF his.
His friend, seeing his downcast look,
asked him what was the trouble Mr.
Jones told him ne had not thought Of
helping anybody and his conscience hurt
him.
Then Mr. Simpson said 81 know what

So they went and asked the minister ~
they could he two Santa Clauses.

was. Mrs. Weston felt that II somebody
had been KIND enough to give them the
