DADDY'S EVENING
HEAIR TALE s.
b. NARY GRAHAM BONNER,
HOMES WITHOUT cHIMNEYs.

Nick and Nancy had been to the
City on a Shopping Trip with their
Mother And when they came Home
they hardly Spoke at all. Their
mother thought that they were prob
ably very Tired, for they had Seen so
much and Walked such a great deal.
But Nick and Nancy were not Tired.
They were Thinking. And when they
were Thinking so very hard they SIM
ply could not Talk. Besides they had
a big Question to ask Daddy. They
had Thought about it so much, that
at last they knew that they couldn't
find the Answer themselves. They
would just have to ask Daddy, for he
knew all about such things.
81 wish Daddy would Hurry" said
Nancy.
Hell tell u.s. said Nick.
And at that moment Daddy came in
the room. ''What is it that will tell
you?' he asked, for he had heard Nick
Talking.
"Oh. Daddy" said Nancy. 1--WE could
hardly Wait for you to come"
whats the Trouble? What's all
this Excitement?' asked Daddy, look
ing Puzzled.
We've been to the City today, Dad
dy, and we Saw so many things"
81 hardly Suppose you need a Story
then tonight" said Daddy with little
Laugh.
"Oh, we want one more than ever, -
said Nick
And" continued Nancy, 1--WE went
to see our Cousins. They live in an
Apartment House. she ended.
"An Apartment House has lots and
lots of Homes, Daddy" said Nick.
There are Rooms all on one floor
and you go up and down stairs in an
Elevator
Eyes" said Daddy. Smiling. "Was
there anything else Strange about
these Apartment Houses?''
Indeed there was,'' shouted both
the Children. And then Nick went on
to Explain that most of them did not

have any Fireplaces, and how in the
World could Santa Claus get down
Chimneys if there weren't any Chin
neys to get down?
For" said Nick, 81 never heard that
Children in the Cities did not get
Presents, but I Wondered how Santa
Claus took them to their homes''
1--WE didn't like to ask our Cousins
too much about it," said Nancy, ''for
they just knew Santa Claus came to
them, and they didn't know quite how
nor did they care"
"Ah," said Daddy, there is a way ="
1--WE knew there wasp' said the
Children DelightedIy. "But what is
his way, Daddy, do tell US Quickly"
'When they began to build these
great, big Apartment Houses, years
ago, Santa Claus was on the lookout.
Now he said to himself, I must think
out way to get to the Children who
will live in those big Buildings
''The people went on Building, and
they were so Interested in Watching
the Floors grow-one went right on
top of the other-that they seemed to
forget all about Santa Claus and his
one Trip of the Year, which is worth
more than anything else that Hap
pens.
"And then the People began to
Build Fire Escapes. For they said
that when the Buildings were so large
and there were so many Rooms, and
so many families, they must have a
way of getting out in case Of Fire.
And from top to bottom of every
Building-on every side-they put
Fire Escapes, so that no Home was
without one.
"'WelI,' said Santa Claus, as he
drove his Renders over the Roofs
Of the City that night, to see about
his Christmas Trip, that is something
likel Now I know what to dor
$50 when Santa Claus goes to the
City Homes where there are no Chin
neys he leaves his Renders on the
Roof, and down he goes on the Fire
Escape to every single Home, and in
he gets with his Pack. For did you
ever know any place locked up so
Tightly but what there was a way for
Santa Claus to get in?
"Oh, yes, Santa Claus Visits the
Cities and the Villages and the Farms.
He just has to do a little Differently
In some Homes than in others. But
1t makes no Difference to him what
they may Build, for, after all, Chill
dren are Children, and Santa Claus
is Santa Claus, and that's the Answer
to your Question. He always makes
a way to Visit Children every Christ

Seal Originally Land animal.

It is a curious fact that the fur seal
was once a land animal. The baby
seals are actually afraid Of the water !:
they would drown if thrown into it,
and have to learn to swim by repeated
efforts. When once they have been
taught to swim, however. they soon
forget to walk.
