OF the children, who were too young
to know OF the shadow that clouded
their lives.
Often and often the woman went to

at her throat and uttered a little moan
OF despair.

done about our mistletoe literature that
crops up so regularly during the holi-

The joke about the girl who wears
a sprig of mistletoe on her head.
The joke about the mistIetoe that

along without II.
The church trimming mistletoe joke.
The sprig of mistletoe that the long
lost lover on bis dramatic return on
Christmas eve always draws out of his
pocket at the end of the story.
