Sunday school class a glorious tree,
and that now there was no tree for
them.
She argued with herself that she
might have known that the New York
shops could not be relied upon TO send
tree TO the suburbs at so short a
notice. but that did not help the
situation.
Regina shrank from facing those Il
little girls whose smiles would vanish
In childish disappointment when they
learned that the tree they had been
promised was not to be theirs.
The tears brimmed over and fell.
Regina's vision was cleared and IN
the clearing she gazed directly at the
miniature fir tree in the vacant lot
next door. A sense of keen delight
swept over Regina. After all, her chill
dren would have a tree!
Some ID minutes later Regina ap-
peared In outdoor costume. She had
put on her gymnasium suit, high rub
Der boots and her fathers great top
fur cap fitted closely.
You look for all the world as II
you deserved FOUR nickname" expostu-
lated Regina's mother. Regina, ! do
hope no one will see YOU
Now. this nickname TO which Re
gina's mother alluded with distress
had been bestowed upon the girl by
her father. 1t was Tommy-no more
and no less-TommyI And Tommy
stood for tOmboy. You see, the girl
was no dollhouse flower, even if she
did teach a Sunday school class and
weep with disappointment. In fact.
her father insisted that the nickname
fitted-and secretly he was proud that
IT did. For Regina was distinctly able
bodied She could ride and swim.
She could handle a 20-gauge shotgun
end a casting rod. She was a notable
mountaineer- She could paddle a canoe
and sail boat And she cared a lot
more for out-of-doors things than she
did for dances and for social functions.
Her idea of happiness was a camp
IN the woods
There's no one for miles around
Regina laughed. and shouldered an Ak
Unless people who live In the bunga-
low turn up will have the world TO
myself" She picked up a big tub
with her free hand and trudged off
toward the fir tree in the vacant lot.
Regina's eyes were too intent on her
mission TO see that a thin curl of
smoke was twisting from the chimney
OF the bungalow that rambled in the
lot beyond the vacant one
Regina drew near the coveted tree
and her heart expanded lovingly.
What a little beauty she ex-
claimed half aloud.
The little tree stood not much high
en- than Regina. Over its branches a
veil OF smoke seemed TO linger. After
a moment spent In admiration the girl
put down her big tub and began to
clear away the light fall of snow from
about the roots OF the tree. Her
cheeks were gloriously red and the
sparkle In her eyes rivaIed the day It
self.
When the snow was cleared Regina
swung the great ak into the frozen
earth. The ground scarcely respond |
ed 70 her strength. She swung
again.
"HeyI What are you doing to that
tree?"
Regina drOpped her az and pazed |
IN the direction Of the deep, gruff |
voice. A man was standing on the |
vernnda OF the bungalow.
