hung up the receiver and ran to the chair by the window quite the other side of the room
 It was not quite minute when the telephone bell rang shrilly.
 ''Is this Miss Hazen?" said the oper- ator's voice.
 Yes" said Ruth.
 Message wasn't t1nished-wait.'
 ''Hello!' came Jacks voice. big, strong. vibrant with happiness. That you. RuthT'
 Yes
 Coming said the voice. mother and l. to take you mp state with us. Can you be ready in an hour?'
 Yes" said Ruth I've been ready always. Jack"
 What came next must have surprised even that long suffering. much endur ing wire. Sure it is that Ruth's cheeks famed like red holly berries
 And even before she ran to put her clothes in her suit case. to do her hair and to put on her one good gown. from above her bookcase she took sprig of scarlet holly. With a red ribbon she tied it over the telephone
 ''If ever anything deserved a merry Christmas. she cried. ''vou do,'
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1913-12-19

tened Out of the darkness and dis tance a voice spoke-Jack's voice. Merry Christmas was its only mes- sage. But so strong and clear were the words that when Ruth finally awoke to a sunny Christmas morn- ing, she still tingled to their memory.
 Perhaps. when one first awakes, the heart has more control over one than the head. Anyhow. when Ruth sat up and looked out of her window at the already busy streets far below her. her heart was doing the talking
 "Jack is waiting for you-some- where." it said And he belongs to you. Why not claim your own?"
 After a minute Ruth's heart spoke again. What if you are poor? What if he is not rich? Can't two work to- gether better than apart? Why not give Jack Christmas gift? The only one he wants?"
 Ruth did not give her head time to argue with her heart. As soon as she was dressed she was at the telephone giving Jacks business number. After she had waited what seemed a long. long time her head did remind her.
 ''Why, of course.'' she said slowly. ''he will be up country today" She was just about to hang up the receiver
 Wait a minute,'' cried her heart Hearts do know things. especially at Christmas And then
 "Hellor' said big. hearty voice out of. the distance.
 "Oh. Jackr cried Ruth "Is it you. really you?"
 'Yes. Ruth said the voice. "Who else? You wanted"-
 ''To-wish you a merry Christmas. Jack Ruth faltered.
 "Thanks. That all?''
 "Yes.'' said Ruth. listening to her head. Then: "No-not quite. I-I want ed to hear your voice: that's all.''
