Then the fat boy film is shown, which
motion picture managers persist in
thinking the screaming height of COM

father gathers up the children and
works his way out through the mob in
the entry waiting for the doors to open

mother, without a word, tiptoe on a
common errand to the pantry and from
the highest shelves there is the crinkle
Of stiff paper. Back they creep, and
soon the stockings look as though they
had suffered some horrible disease. A
string is tied from the toe of Orville's
stocking to his new sled, and into Ola's
stocking the white fascinator is put
the fascinator that she has mentioned
regularly once week since the Fourth
Of July. When the last sack of candy,
with the chocolates mashed and imbed-
ding the white mice, is placed in the last
stocking, father looks at the clock,
startled.

If Not Sank Centre, Then Any Small
Toyn Where Nine O'clock Used
To Be Late and All Honest
PEOPLE" Were in Bed
By HOMER CROY

The only small town grocery you can
find any more is the one in the plays.
That hasn't changed The same old
cracker barrel that saw William H.
Crane playing juvenile leads can now
be found in its accustomed place behind
the prune box. If some managerial
genius would have his Uncle ST and Josh
Hencoop sitting on breakfast food box
he would be hailed as the new Belasco.
The automobile and the motion pict
ure show are responsible for the change
in Sank Centre. AS buying and retail
ing place, Sank Centre has passed away.
The Square Deal grocery store is no
more. It's place has been taken by the
mail order catalogue. When Uncle Will
and Aunt Mary want to buy anything

TTIS Christmas Eve at Sank Centre
and softly the snow is falling out
side. as mother stands at the dish
pan. banking the soapy dishes on the oil
cloth of the htchen-table, while Lucy,
eypectant of tomorrow, dries them
with scrupulous care. With the last blue
trimmed dish in its accustomed place,
and lust as the days work seems over,
Adelbert comes rushing in with the de-
mand for popcorn. Out comes the deep
black pot, from the box in the pantry,
and on the stove it is put, while the pa
tent, long-suffering mother turns to her
added duty.
With the snowy whiteness bursting
from the grim blackness of the pot, the
corn is spread on the opened papers and
passed around. To the low munching of
the corn is added the snapper crunch OF
the apples, while Ola reads from her
Five Little Peppers, and How They
Crew." and Orville busies himself on the
floor trying to secure a perfect align
ment of spools on the maltese's Justly
aroused tail Mother, finding at the
last moment that another stocking
needs mending, sinks quietly into her
rocker under the red lamp chimney and
gives herself up to the work, while
father nestles his head against the
slightly soiled throw, unable to keep up
the pretence of being awake and cheer
full.

early supper, clear off the dishes, get out
the paper and turn to the pink index
pages. When appropriate and suitable
presents have been selected for Lucy,
Ola, Orville, Adelbert and baby Freder-
lex, father foots up the bill, writes
check and ticks the stamp. Mother puts
out the cat, winds the clock, and the
Christmas strain is over.
A week before Christmas the pack
ages arrive, unmarked. They are I'M
wrapped and put away in the spare bed
room and on top of the pantry shelf,
out of the way of eager eyes, until
Christmas Eve with it's softly falling
snow.
But on Christmas Eve father and
mother no longer sit around under the

Sank Centre Is Different, zvih
Eggs Bringing f. Gents

around on Christmas Eve. Not much
not with 1917 model selling for $3.50,
and their eggs going to the wholesaler
at forty-two cents. And nowadays
there is never any softly falling snow.
In Andrew Jacksons administration
there may have been some softly de-
scending CONCEALED hexagons, but not so
any longer. 1t used to be the fashion
for snow to descend softly on that night,
but not now. The weather department
keeps telling us that the weather isn't
changing and can bring out figures to
prove it, but just the same the softly
falling snow is now rarity under the
sun.
Socks are no longer hung up in Sank
Centre. Mother, who attends all the
housewife league lectures, would be hor-
rifed at stuffing candy for a prattling
babe in an unhygienic sock. She no long
err lets Adelbert gorge himself on choc-
olate and white mice on Christmas;
Adelbert now gets one piece after each
meal and if he takes two he has to read
a chapter from DR.. Wiley. A Sank
Centre child is brought up on equal por-
tions of Holt and Wiley, with now and
then an allopathic dose of Allyn.
HO, for the Family Ford on
Christmas Eve
When Christmas Eve comes to Sank
Centre these days father and mother
have an early supper, pile the children
into the car and hit it up on the turnpike
to forty and head straight for the Bijou
Dream, thirty miles away. Throwing
the laprobe over the faithful carrier
they 90 inside and revel in the cinemato-
graph art. Each member Of the family
has his or her favorite. Ola loves Jack
Kerrigan, Adelbert has six photos of
Marguerite Clark in his room, while Or
vile has no hesitancy in making it
known that he takes it as a personal in
suit if the manager lets the evening go
by without putting on at lest one good
Indian picture Mother likes those travel
pictures where the people wear such
strange clothes and stare at the camera,
while father doesn't mind a vampire
now and then-if she is a good one and
sends the man to ruin.

out to the family Ford. A few high

In the garage he puts the car. throws
his gloves in the seat, gives the furnace
a poke and comes in.

they now turn to page 734, and tear out
the perforated pages in the back of the
book. And they get their things for less
than we proud people of the boroughs
pay.
There is no tired Christmas shopper
in Sank Centre.

Around The Red Lamp in
the Old Days

Out booms the great, deep-throated
clock nine long reverberating strokes,
while father swallows and sits upright.
No wonder he was getting so sleepy
nine o'clock.
ITS time for all honest people to be
In bed" he says with the light-hearted-
ness that father is wont to effect on holi-
day ewes. Santa Claus can never come
with us all settin' up watching for him.
Aside Ola lays her Alcott and obedi-
emily Orville leaves the cat to her own
entertainment and, with the twins, they
make ready for the shivering bed cham
Der. On the mantelpiece they hang
their stockings, carefully darned few
nights before by mother under the red
lamp shade, with baby Frederick's tiny
ones the last in the row, the safety-pin
tears still in them.
One by one mother leads the children
H. filling the tumblers with water and
putting the chairs out of the way, and
softly closes the door behind her. With
the children disposed of, father and

red lamp shade The red lamp shade is
no more. 1t has been replaced by a
Tungsten with an art glass hood, and
the good old Charter Oak was sold for
dollar and quarter to the junkman,
and where the stove once stood there is
now a black hole in the floor, regulated
by thumb screw.
No longer do father and mother sit

Fathers Gift Used to 90
i'm His Shoes

Ten o'clock! But it's worth 1t -
Christmas, as has been pointed out,
comes but once a year. They can make
up for it by sleeping late tomorrow
morning.
Going to the kitchen he lifts the dip
per, while his throat contracts in re-
spouse to the strain. Slipping off his
socks he drops them in the gaping
mouths of his shoes and speeds for the
bed. while mother fingers to force free
dom on the cat and to blow out the light.
But before removing her own shoes she
makes another trip to the spare bed
room and back she comes with pack
age. Into fathers gaping shoes 1t goes
the children must not get all.
On the other side of the stove she
leaves her own worn shoes and bends
over the lamp chimney. The room goes
black and toward the bed she feels her
way with the unerring success of a per-
son who has long known where every
article of furniture has it's station.
Creeping to the cradle she puts her hand
on baby Fredericks face and then
climbs over the foot of the bed and sinks
softly between the frosty sheets.
Sank Centre of the Crossroads
Has Disappeared
That's the popular idea of Christmas
in Sank Centre.
But Sank Centre is no more.
The picturesque crossroads town has
disappeared. There are now more
checker champions on Forty-second
Street than in all New England. There's
not chewing tobacco company in bust
ness now that prints a checkerboard on
the back of its packing case and sawdust
has been done away with as a factor IN
the social life of country community.
