small sum. We have enjoyed accu-
mulating this money and hope it, add
ed to your other yearly contributions,
may help to bring cheer and happi-
ness to your home on Christmas day."
The evening failed to disclose the
adequate solution for this problem.
However, on the morrow, Mrs. Barber
awoke with a radiant face. With the
clearness of the morning, the crisp
ness of the air and the invigoratiOn
which had come through sound, rest
full sleep, the perplexities vanished.
and Mrs. Barber saw her way clear
~ defined before her. Her feet and
hands couldn't work fast enough to
Time was limited. Plans must be
drawn up quickly and executed I'm
mediately.
The first day saw the telephone as
a center of interest. 1t was constant
ly in use either for outgoing or in
coming calls. If Mrs. Barber had
realized how many phone operators
she wore out, her kindheartedness
would certainly have made her spread
her phone calls over two days. She
was so enthusiastic and absorbed in
her plans that she was not aware of
her excessive tax upon these girls.
The last phone call brought smiles
and added energy TO Mrs. Barber as
she hurried off into the heart of the
great smoky city. She spent perhaps
ference with the matron in charge of
the large settlement house. At the
end of that time she emerged with a
piece Of paper bearing the names of
some fifteen young boys and girls.
CHANGING down the list she swallowed
forcefully, uttered peculiar sound
and shook her head as she said:
Cant exactly say | am very apt
at pronouncing these long foreign
names"
The Settlement house matron put
her hand on Mrs. BARRIERS shoulder in
an affectionate manner.
Don't worry. They understand
and are used ito it. They will help
you and you will soon learn their

Americanized versions" The next
two days were spent in the city
library. From the stacks of books
which Mrs. Barber went through in
her two days there, but one did she
select to take away with her.
For some few days after this Mrs.
Barber occupied her time with the
white paper with the list of unpro-
nounceable names, the book, and last
but not least, fifteen viyacious young
persons, griny and little crude, but
how sweet, earnest, happy and eager
they were. The training had to be
patiently undertaken. The response
was altogether what might have been
expected from these kind-hearted.
high-spirited youngsters.
Then, lastly, there were the house
decorations to be attended TO. There
were willing hands in the home which
helped hang wreaths, trim the tree
and put up the little sprigs of holly
and mistletoe. Melodies not familiar
to the younger generation filed the
house. The humming and quiet whis-
ting told of expected joys not now far
in the offing.
There was shopping 70 be done and
many preparations for the food which
would be necessary. Busy days, but
wha: happy ones. Mrs. Barber was
never too busy or too tired to stop
and have friendly chat with anyone
of the elderly people, to profit from
their suggestions or abide by tkeil
wishes, if it was at all possible to
do so.
Christmas Day, the day, arrived.
When the old folks came down TO
their breakfast, they found a Christ
mas tree laden with at least one gift
for each. They were as pleased and
happy as children with their pres
entS.
At noon the festivities took on pro-
portion. One would never have
guessed that the folks ranged any
where from seventy to ninety-five, as
they trooped In to Christmas dinner.
The table was heavily laden with all
the Christmas delicacies, especially
good for people of their age. They
also had another little surprise. They
had fifteen radiantly happy guests
who were introduced to them. 1t
was indeed hard to judge which was
enjoying the dinner the most, the
young or the old. Suffice it to say,
the young folks encored it the most.
Before the group left the table Mrs.
Barber made a little announcement
''Our guests have come out today
not only to help US enjoy our Christ
mas dinner, but to help US to have
a delightful afternoon. They have
come prepared to present a short
Christmas play and to furnish US
little musical entertainment"
From the chuckles, smiles, laughter
and applause, there was no doubt

ton at length. She was of slight

so forcefully to her attention as it
was at Christmas time. To be sure,
people were generous and thoughtful
in remembering this group. That
was exactly it. How could one put
this generosity into a form which
would benefit the largest number in
the group? The agitation of the ques-
ton had begun but today, when Mrs.
Barber had received note and a do
nation of fifty dollars from group
of fine, public-spirited citizens who
were endowed with the true Christ
mas spirit. The accompanying note
merely stated that its use could best
be determined by Mrs. Barber, and so
would be left entirely to her good
judgment. She read the note once
more as it lay on the desk before her.
Our group or society has a little
fund raised in various ways by its
members. Each year at Christmas
time, we give fifty dollars of this fund

France, an extraordinary allegation
has been made. A ten-year-old girl
fell into the River Isere while playing
with her little brother. The boy ran
TO kennel where a dog was chained
up, to send him to the rescue. A po-
lice officer appeared, and, Selling the
dog, declared that as it was not on a
lead the owner must pay a fine The
boy pleaded with the official, but he
refused to release the dog. The little
girl was drowned.

about the approval with which the
entertainment was received. The
young people were worthy of all the
praise which they received. The
coaching had been successful. The
day had been delightful and was q
topic of conversation for a long time.
Mrs. Barber was even happier over
the occasion than the old folks, IL
such a thing could be possible. She
realized that this vision, her scheme,
had been practical. The fifty dollars
had given pleasure to not only the old
people but it gave these young for

Fumbling is the bane of any bas-
ket ball coach's existence. 1t usu-
ally means loss of the ball. Heis.
man. former Georgia Tech tutor.
now at Rice Institute, once re-
marked that 1t was better to die as
babe than to tumble as a member
of any team he coached. Basket ball
fumbling is easily accounted for by
the coach who watches his men.
One main cause is inaccurate pass
ing, the ball being thrown too high
or too low or back of a running
player. causing him to lose his
stride in his effort to back peddle.
third cause Is passing with too
much speed when close to the re-
ceiver. That usually comes from
excitement. All these causes, plus
the cause of carelessness. are
quickly and easily corrected
Exhaustion sometimes readily
leads to fumbling. A tired player
should be taken out of the game.
The one fine way to note whether
a player Is going stale, If his coach
does not know the symptoms by his
appearance. Is to watch him handle
the ball. Toward the end of a sea-
son fumbling often loses games and
drives the coach wild. He is
unable to correct it. There Is one
cure--a lay-off. 1t will do more to
eradicate fumbling and pep up the
team than all the work in the
world.
