his father and mother.
"Why not make 'em something" was
the thought that came to him.
Bob jumped up and went home whis-
tling 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-

at the result of his labors.

of lace at the windows for curtains.
For Amy there was the lovely pic
ture from the Sunday newspaper which
she had admired. Bob had remember
ed and had made 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 a 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 a necktie holder for
Elmer! For his mother he whitfield a
reel for her clothes lines, and it was
a wonderfully handy thing. and for his
father he bought a pipe. 1t 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 puppy7
"You 60 over to my brothers place
at the foot of Long hill, and you tell
him I sent you," said the tobacco man.
Maybe he will let you have a puppy
and work it out for him on Saturdays.

"Tll do 1t II he WILL" cried Bob
eagerly. Half an hour later he hurried
into the woodshed with q wriggling

he had to tell his mother about that
