On Monday evening the board of
editors of The Annual gave a carnival
in the gymnasium. This was a care
fully worked out and complete affair.
especially well worked out to gather
up the pennies. All features of a reg
ular carnival were reproduced from
the sideshow with the wild man of
Borneo through all amusement booths
to the lemon and candy stand. The
sights included an a%crobatic entertain
ment and a vaudeville performance
with real live animals to add to thel
realistic features. A large crowd of
people attracted by a. street parade in
the afternoon were out in the evening
to see the fun, and were not disap-,
pointed in finding a lively affair. The
editors realized a large sum from the
penny shows and appreciate the mate
rial help in a, financial way that waA
given by the patrons of the carnival. \

connected, very. He Is about your
nineteenth cousin, but he is to dine
with US, Ralph Carter"
Pam sat very still, and did not
speak, looking straight ahead Of her.
Ever hear of him?" asked the
major. r.. .-
II just love his shadow" said Pam
solemnly. III It's the same one. I've
tried and tried to paint pictures that
would sell. and finally I coaxed an
old dealer on the avenue to let one
Of my Virginia gardens stand in his
window awhile. You know Aunt Anna
bellies rose garden with the sun dial,
and the old white coach house in the
back? Well, 1t was snapped up by a
Mr.. Ralph Carter. And he wanted
to know II l had more Virginia scenes.
So sent down the oak grove at sun.
down along in November, with big
orange harvest moon stealing over
the edge of the hill, and he bought
that. And now I'm painting the old
tagged walk under the grape arbor,
with it all sunshiny, and Nanny
Martha Ann coming along from the
outdoor kitchen with big covered
platter of fried chicken, and he's 60
ing to take that"
The major leaned back his head,
laughing and shaking with pure en-
joyment. Up on the Hudson. at Hast
ings, stood Ralph Carriers bachelor
home, and he had made it almost a
replica of the old one in Virginia.
Successful in every way in New York,
he had chung to the old southern ira
ditions almost fiercely, this tall, lean,
clear-eyed lawyer.
And so he's been hanging your
pictures all over his walls" exclaimed
the major. God bless my heart and
soul, child. This is certainly merry
Christmas for us ALL"
Pam was rather grave, though, as
they went through the splendid red
and gold corridors of the great hotel.
The dinner was to be very select and
private up in the majors reception
room and she wondered what this dis
tant cousin would be like.
He was all she had wanted him to
be. Even Pam could find no fault as
she sat next to him at the round table.
And oh, after years of lonely striving
among strangers, how it made her
cheeks glow and her heart beat to
hear these two, the splendid old
major and Ralph, vie with each other

"N-n-o-o." Pete answered, more
because the surgeons tone needed a
negative reply than because he knew
what he was saying.

went on, ignoring the lads terrified
expression. "And I kind Of think

II received $4,000 for that opera
ton" There was a merry twinkle In
the doctors eye that was lost on his
little visitor.
Jaw, say, doc, wot yer givin' me?
You didn't make all that in one day?
Eyes, in two hours. Tom"
The youngsters eyes filled with
tears, and he bit his lip to hold back
the sobs. A good leg meant SO much
to Pete, and he would gladly give
$1,000 for one for him II that were
possible, but the doctor might have
as we'll asked for the moon in pay
ment for that leg. His vision of Pete
without the hated crutch was fast dis
appearing, but he would not let it get
away entirely.
Don't you never charge no less?"
the boy managed to ask, without Civ.
ing away to the burst Of tears ready
to flow at his disappointment.
"Oh, yes. indeed: but you asked me
how much l received for an operation
like last weeks, and never per-
formed one just like that before. 1t

go. Il guess it's all off, doc. l amt

Tom, sit down there" The doc
tors tone of command was filled with
more laughter than severity. Lets
talk business"
The youngster obeyed, watching the
eminent surgeon with a puzzled look,
uncertain whether the great man was
really going to make a concession or
upbraid him for taking his time. Faint
though it was, new hope sprang up
in the small breast. Possibly there
might be some terms of payment that
he could meet as he grew older and
could earn more than the few pennies
that meant the days profits on his
paper sales.

Now, how much can you afford to pay
for such an operation?"
The youngsters eyes shone like
two live Goals. So the doctor knew
Pete, and thought he could cure him!
Was it dream? Tom pinched him
self to make sure it was all real. Yes,
he was awake all right. How much
could he afford? He felt he could at
ford anything to give Pete a new leg,
but how little that was compared with

what the doctor would expect! Both
sat in silence for over minute. The
surgeon knew what was going on In
the youngsters mind, but thought best
to let him come to his own conclusion
The boy fumbled his cap nervously
while he considered the great ques-
ton, and at length looked up suddenly
into the surgeons face. There was no
doubt or uncertainty in his face or
tone as he announced his decision.
doc, the only thing I've got in the
world is me corner down by the foun-
tain, where me and Pete sells papers,
1 can't give you all that, for wouldn't
have nuthin' for me and Pete to live
on and to help NAV with the kids. I'll
tell you what I'll do, doc, I'll let you
have half o. that corner. You can hire
a kid to sell papes fer you and have
some dough left, but you won't make
no $4,000 in kingdom come"
The doctor knit his brows and Tom
imagined he could see quick refusal
of his proposition, but the kindly CLEAN
came back into the Doctors eye and
Tom began to hope again az the doc
tor pondered over the proposition for
a moment. Then the doctor said:
"All right. Tom; I'll accept that
proposition, and we'll draw up the
Agreement right now. Let's see. this
is December eighteenth. Well start
tho new arrangement beginning with
January first" - .,<
In the course Of quarter OF an
