children would be lucky if they all had mittens and warm shoes and stock ings. Yet Bob knew that his sister Nan was dreaming of doll house, little Peter wanted a puppy all his own, and he didn't dare think of his big sis ter Amy and big brother Elmer and his father and mother.
 'Why not make 'em something" was the thought that came to him.
 Bob jumped up and went home whis- ting through the woods. Under the pine trees he stopped and brushed away the snow. When he got through his pockets were full of dried pine cones, large and small, and some pieces of birch bark.
 The day before Christmas Bob un- locked the woodshed door and looked at the result of his labors.
 There was q doll house for little Nan made out of an egg crate, with real

wall paper on the walls of the two rooms, bits of carpet on the floors and some cardboard furniture that Bob had made. He had even tackled little scraps of lace at the windows for curtains.
 For Amy there was the lovely pie ture from the Sunday newspaper which she had admired. Bob had remember ed and had made a frame for 1t out of strips of wood, and on the wood he had glued tiny pine cones, pieces of birch bark and dried moss and as the picture was q woodland scene you can imagine how pretty 1t was. Bob had found chair rung. which he scraped and polished with some oil and turpen- tine. He put some screweyes in the ends, and Amy gave him a piece of narrow red ribbon to make loOps-and, behold, there was necktie holder for Elmer For his mother he whittled reel for her clothes lines, and ii was wonderfully handy thing, and for his father he bought pipe. It happened this way: He did some errands for the man who kept the tobacco store in the village, and when the man would have paid him some money Bob said he'd rather have pipe. So now they were all provided for except little Peter. How was Bob going to get hold of a real live puppy?
 "YOu 90 over to my brothers place at the foot of Long hill, and you tell him l sent you." said the tobacco man. Maybe he will let you have a puppy and work 1t out for him on Saturdays. He has paper route.
 "I'll do It If he will" cried Bob eagerly. Half an hour later he hurried Into the woodshed with wriggling little puppy under his coat. Of course he had to tell his mother about that. And how Bob did enjoy the secret, run ming to and fro with milk and scraps of meat for the puppy!
 When Christmas morning dawned l think Bob Stillwell was the most sur prised boy in Little River. He was so interested in watching the pleasure of his brothers and sister with the gifts he had made with his own hands that he stood smiling, forgetting to look at the tree for his own presents.
 Look, Bobby; look !" screamed little Peter.
 Bob looked and turned pale with sur prise. The grandest new sled, painted a bright red, runners and all. His fa- ther and Elmer had made 1t together. And there was a red woolen muffler that Amy had knitted for him and oth- CT things that Santa Claus brought him.
