ups went TO the platform with empty
hands and came back laden with pack
ages, oranges and bags of candy. and
presently the whole room was a pleas
ant buzz of talk and laughter.
As for Robin Treat. she sat there like
a beautiful statue of snow ever since
the parson had made his announce
ment concerning the delayed present.
She wondered if it was for her. 1t
could not he that Aunt Hetty had re-
ceived it. although the old lady had
given the minister a package. But
that package would contain the knitted
silk muller for Mr.. Drake. Robin
shrugged her shoulders impatiently.
OF course the delayed Gift was a book
for one of the children. She turned to
smile down at Aunt Hetty, who was
taking childlike pleasure in a lapful of
gifts from the tree.
Miss Robin Treat" read Parson
Drake, and Robins face grew paler as
she went up the aisle. No n noticed
her going save Aunt Hetty, who looked
anxiously at Robin as she came back
with a large box of books and two
pink tarlatan bags of candy.
Other names followed. and a greater
confusion of sound seemed to shut
Aunt Hetty and her niece from the
crowd.
You got two bags, Robin. Let me
see what you've got" whispered Aunt
Hetty.

and the other. in the shape of a stock
ing. she recognized as the candy bags
used two years ago.
Her hands fell to sudden trembling.
Was it possible that this was the de-
layed present-tEe one she should have
received two years ago? If SO, then
she had received Aunt Hetty's stock
ing that year and Aunt Hetty had re-
ceived the precious one. and in the
pain of her sprained ankle had tucked
it away and forgotten 1t until that very
day.
She lifted her eyes and mel the burn
ing glance of Anthony Drake-he was
watching her. He had been waiting
two years for his answer. Her fingers
pulled out the drawstring that fasten.
ed the top of the stocking. and she saw
a handful of withered popcorn and
stale candies.
There was something elsa small
Christmasy looking envelope with a
red seal and her name in a handwrit-
ing hat brought hot bushes to her
cheeks.
Once more she glanced up shyly and
met Anthony's questioning eyes. Her
swiftly lowered head may have be-
trayed her secret, for he turned away
with a glad smile.

would go forth in the spring to reclothe
the forests with beautiful foliage and
unlock the ice bound streams.
A survival of this superstition was
found among the English ~peasantry
not more than POO years ago. They
hung evergreens in their cottages in
the belief that they would attract
sprites and that the boughs would re-

Robin looked up from her book once
and noticed that Aunt Hetty was
whispering to Anthony Drake as she
slipped a package into his hand. Her
brief glance at his face surprised a
look of mingled establishment and dis.
belief as he went back to his place on
the platform.
There were a prayer and more Christ

came forward and announced that the
