carols. Now it was all over and
she wasn't wanted at all, not by
anybody. not even by Sally Wiggins'
who had no doll-not even one. She
wasn't wantedl Oh, it was too bad,
and her eyes tried to wink out two
tears.
So they put her in the basket with
the other unwanted things. and there
the minister found her the next Sun
day. She was lying there fast asleep.
with little carpet sweeper near her.
and a box of candy close by, and
looking glass by her side. At her feet
there was spruce cone that had
fallen off Of the tree, and the bit OF
paper that had told who she was
meant for, but her eyes were shut
she had retired from the world, no
one wanted her.
There she was still when the min
lister came into the room the next
Sunday morning But now her eyes
were wide open, only she wasn't look
ing at the presents in the basket. She
was awake, but turned away. and still
trying to squeeze out some tears be-
cause she was left over. And every
time the minister took her up she
would shut her eyes and 60 to sleep
again. unless he held her up pretty
straight. and then she seemed to be
sad and to be dreaming about being
left over, even while slfe was awake.
She wasn't awake even on chill
dren's day until little baby Mower
came in to get ready to be baptized,
but as soon as he held her up she
opened her eyes, and when she saw
what a pleasant little boy he was she
looked pleasant and hopeful again.
Then he put her down, and she went
to sleep and slept until Christmas
came againl
With a new Christmas there she was
upon tree once more, and they
were singing carols again and getting
ready to call Off the names. This time
she was sure that somebody would
want her, for she had been patient
whole year, and she hadn't made any
fuss even though she had felt so sor-
ry. Besides, this was the very pest
tree they had ever had, and so many
had come to see It, It was full of
gifts-not like the little tree that the
minister saw in the corner Of a house
parlor-the mother said, cts most all
tree and paper, but it's tree"-there
were go-carts, and everything, and an
Indian tOmahawk to 60 with . boys
warwhoop, and some fringed pants to
be put on with them, and picture
Of a little girl in red, under a big
umbrella, in snowstorm. and "Ain't
this nice snowy day." written under
the picture, and lots of things. and
the leftover doll, lool:ing so friendly
and nice-nicer than ever.
Well, they began to call the names,
and. almost the first thing somebody

WHAT was the, leftover doll
w thinking about as she hung on
the topmost twig Of the Christmas
tree all alone? Perhaps about all the
other gifts that had been taken OF
by loving hands and given to the boys
and girls. Maybe she was wondering
whether there would be Christmas
tree every winter, bearing such nice
fruit in such strange season, IL there
had not been such great gift from
God as come on Jesus birthday. More
than all, however, she must have been
asking herself why she was left over,
why nobody wanted her, why the
name that was. pinned on her dress
had not been called. ,.@
She was as good q doll as ever was
made. Her eyes would open and shut,

"Santd Claus"

"Santa Claus is a corruption which
originated apparently in Flanders or
possibly among the Dutch, of the name
ST. Nicholas. a saint noted for his
love of children and his boundless
charity. His "day" was perhaps De-
cember 8, originally, but since the dis
placement Of Old Father Christmas,
the British representation of the
Christmas spirit, he is celebrated al
most universally as the Christmas
saint.

Monkey Reasons.

1t used to be thought that beasts
and birds were guided in their action
entirely by instruct, reason playing no
part whatever in their daily lives. But
now naturalists are not 30 sure. To
learn to use a lever as mechanical
instrument implies, one would think, a
certain amount Of reasoning power.

ERLANGER AND ZTECFELD
SUED AGAIN BY KLAW
Says His Former Associates
sDrew Large Salaries.

Florenz Ziegfeld. Jr.. and A. L. Erlan-
ger. as officers of the Ziegfeld Follies,
Inc. and the Ziegfeld Midnight Frolics,
Inc. were made defendants in two ac-
tions for an accounting in the Supreme
Court undertaken yesterday by Marc
Klaw, their former associate In theat-
rical enterprises. In many respects the
action is similar to one undertaken In
Westchester county in December. 1920
and later transferred to New York county.
At that time Justice Daniel r. Coha-
Ian denied Klaw's application for per-
mission to examine the books Of the two
companies.
In papers filed yesterday In the County
Clerks office. Mr.. Klaw alleges that his
former associates by voting to them
selves "exorbitant and excessive" SAL
aries in both theatrical ventures and by
increasing the rent OF the New Amster-
dam Theater have secured dispropor.
tionate share of the profits Of the cor
porations. He Is suing as an individual
and In behalf OF other stockholders.
Mr. Ziegfeld as president, Mr.. Klaw
alleges, drew $4,000 per year from the
"Follies" company. and $22.500 from the
.Frolics." In addition Mr.. Klaw charges
that Mr.. Ziegfeld was receiving 5000
weekly from each production as man
ager. Mr.. Erlanger. he says. received
$4,000 from the "Follies' company and
$500 from the "Frolics" as vice-presi-
dent and treasurer. The rental of the
theater for the summer OF 1920. he al
leges, was increased from $1,000 to
$4,000 per week by Messrs Ziegfeld and
Erlanger, who gained thereby as con-
trolling owners OF the lessee OF the thea
ter.
While the 1920-21 "F'rolics" was pre-
sented on the New Amsterdam Roof. Mr..
Klaw charges that Ziegfeld and Erianger
received their joint salaries amounting
to 10000. when the assets OF the cor
poratlon were less than $4,000. and
the net loss for the year. including sal
aries, was ss3,427.
He asks for an accounting OF their
official conduct as officers. and also
that they pay to the corporations what
ever money or property they have as In
dividuals acquired. lost or wasted, and
return whatever portion of their salaries
may be found excessive.
