IL was one tnrlStmdS mOEuiuS.
Down beyond Chinatown stood a
rickety old tenement, one of the
kind that fire and death had
scorned to touch.
The Italian who kept the fruit
stand on the corner was talking
to the policeman on the beat 'you
had better go up and see about it
she's a lovely little girl. No
one knows. where. that crazy old
rag. picker got her. The old wo-
man went out at daylight witt,
her bag on her back, and shes
locked the child in. It's the ga
BILE room back, next to the roof.

They climbed the shaky stairs,
up and up. and up. They reached
the top floor. The nall was dark.
They felt for the door latch. The
door was locked. The policeman
threw his shoulder UP against it
and it gave way. .' 80
They entered. The room was
almost bare of furniture, cold,
dirty, unkempt. To the left was
a little bedroom about as big as
dry goods box. The policeman
vas about to enter when he heard
child's voice. He paused and
pcered in. He saw an empty
stocking pinned to the wall at the
pest Of the bed
Kneeling at the bed side in an
attitude of prayer was little
girl. The morning sun sent a lu-
minous ray Of light on her head,
golden with ringlets. The police
man, big and brave, just stood
there. He listened, and these
were the words he heard: "Oh,
God, you forgot me and Dolly
Dimpie this time and there ain t
no Santa Claus, for my stocking
is empty. And am cold and
hungry. Hurry up, please, Mister
God, and find my Daddy and my
Precious, and IN be a good girl
and never cry any more, even
when the old woman whips me -
And as he listened. the tears be-
gan to run down the big police
mans nose. He wrapped little
Reddy Ringlets in an old blanket
and carried her gently down the
stairs, and all the time she held
fast to a dirty wax doll. > ..-.s.
The old Italian down the street
gave the little girl an orange, and
at the station house the matron
gave her bag of candy. =.
Little Reddy Ringlets never
found her Daddy or her Precious.
Were they caught in the fire,
crushed by falling walls, or did
they fall victims to some yawn-
ing crevasse, no one can say.
But now little Reddy Ringlets has
a home with a rancher and his
good wife, out beyond the hills
Of Sansitello, and when Christmas
comes and she hangs up her stock
