Early Celebration.

According to history, the first Massa-
chusetts colonists had Christmas dip-
ner aboard the Mayfiower. Lack OF
space notwithstanding, a barrel full of
ivy, holly and laurel had been brought
aboard. With the green's of the home
land the plucky women decorated the
dining table and managed to prepare
dinner of salt fish, bacon, Brussels
sprouts, gooseberry tartS and English
plum pudding for the homesick voy-
ayers.
That Christmas dinner aboard the
Mayfiower was their last for many
years. The Massachusetts, colony which
settled around Boston believed that the
divine Christmas mission upon earth
was too serious to be celebrated with
anything but prayer. To these right
eous men the merry old customs were
heathenish, and the day was derisively
called Pope's day. To finally represS
all attempts at celebration the Massa-
chusetts General Court enacted a law
in 1859 which declared:
THAT whosoever shall be found OBJ
serving any such day as Christmas or
the like. either by forbearing Of labor.
feasting or any other way, upon any
jected to fine of shillings."
But In spite of temporary prohibi-
tions and all the worry and the work,
Christmas has survived. Women all
over the world are still trimming trees,
wrapping up presents and preparing
Strasburg pie and snails in France,
pfeffer- -kuchen in Germany, eels In
Italy, plum pudding in England and
turkey and mince pie in America.

everything they liked to eat. Shed join
right In, put on her own prettiest dress,
play all the new popular songs for them
on the piano and be as jolly as though
she were Louise's age.
iii bet Johnny Harris really comes
to see me-" she'd tease Louise. And
then, to any one else who happened to
be around, Really, you know, have
as much fun out of Louise's beaus as
she does. We're just couple of girls
together, just sisters!"
I must admit, though, that never
knew any sisters who worked that way.
A LII through high school Louise was
awfully popular. All the boys liked
to go to her house. Mrs. Curley never
cared how late they stayed; would let
the bunch tear up the living room to
dance any time they wanted, would play
for them and even get up and dance
an old-fashioned waltz herself with one
of the boys. Everybody said that Louise
Curley was lucky.
Then Denis O'Shea came along.
Denis was crazy about Louise. He
jolly her along pretend he couldn't tell
her and Louise apart When he'd ask
Louise to go to the movies, and Louise
would say, would you mind asking
mother to go along, too? It would be
dull for her to stay at home alone"
Denis would say. Sure, the more the
and would get seats right
down in the front because Mrs. Curley
is a little nearsighted.
For quite while Mrs. Curley thought
he was grand, told everybody what
handsome young fellow he was and
what a beautiful voice he had and how
ambitious he was, and everything like
that.
But after while Denis began to get
serious about Louise and wanted to be
alone with her some of the time. This

words simply fail me-" said.

Will snorted from the wing chair.
'Mr. Pawling just didn't know what
to make of it," Dulcie went on excitedly.
"He stood around in Verblen waiting
for her for nearly three hours"
Wasn't that just like Mr.. Pawling,
to let girl come on home alone to
get her suit case?
And to think that she just ran into
him in the street And that he was
leaving this very night" Dulcie ex-
claimed. "And it all happened Ike q
f1ash-he'd been visiting his married
sister in Verblen, you know"
I didn't even know that Mr.. Pawling
had a married sister in Verblen.
well, for heavens sake!" Dulcie
said who's talking about Mr.. Pawl-
ing?"
There was a moments silence, while
I tried desperately to make sense out
"Oh," said Dulcie, ''you haven't
heard?"
Yes, have" 1 insisted, puzzled but
persistent. IT saw Louise just as she
was leaving"
Louise Curley," said Dulcie, in that
excited, complacent tone of one who is
the first to tell amazing news, Louise
Curley was married in Verblen at half
past six--to Denis O'Shea!"
We haven't really got over it yet. 1t
is the most exciting, romantic thing
that has ever happened in Montrose.
They caught the flyer for New York
that night, and sailed on Monday for
Buenos Aires. Louise Curley, who had
never been farther from home than
Chicago and Grand Rapids! I shall
never forget her flying down our prosy
street as though she were on her way
to heaven.
The real joke. though. is on all us
girls. We expected to have to nurse
Mrs. Curley along for months or years.
In spite of how felt about her as
mother, was really awfrlly sorry for
her, and we girls agreed to do all we
could to keep her from being too un-
happy
And then. we didn't have to do
single thingl
Less than a month after Louise had
left, Mrs. Curley married Mr.. Pawling.
shall never know just what the truth
is, but Mrs. Curley, at least, is per-
fectly sure that he has been coming to
see her all along And, for all know,
maybe he was. If he was, goodness
knows, the way we pushed him of onto
Louise furnished opposition enough to
make any courtship success.

ton. "It would have left Louise too ter

swear that it's completely cured
me of matchmaking. though Will says
when I'm through with matchmaking
I'll be through with breathing. That
is as 1t may be-you never can fore

But there's one thing I'm sure of.

along. too, saying, "Why, Of course,
Dotty, we'll be delighted to help you
out"
She pinned a tea-towel over the
front of her dress for an apron, and
asked me briskly which plates I was
going to use for the sandwiches. I
gave Dulcie wild signal, and she came
to the rescue.
she said, "oh, Mrs. Curley, I've just
been dying to ask you about that paper
mother said you read at the woman's
club Its"
didn't hear the rest, but Dulcie can
be fiattering when she sets out to be,
and, the next thing I knew, she had
Mrs. Curley cornered in the living
room. I set Louise and Mr.. Pawling to
cutting cake and dishing ice cream and
so on, and kept out of their way as
much as I could
Refreshments, however, can't take
forever, and, when they were over,
somebody asked Mr.. Pawling to sing.
That was unfortunate, because it
brought Mrs. Curley right into the
picture again, to play for him. Her
mother being able to play so well,
Louise had never learned.
Mr.. Pawling has very deep voice,
which seems downright funny, he's
such a mild, wiry-necked little man.
He sang five or six songs before he
stopped. Most of Mr.. Pawling's songs
seem to be tragedies of the sea.
He was booming away on "Davy
Jones' Locker" when I happened to
glance at Louise She was sitting
there, listening, and suddenly don't
know why-I remembered how we al
ways used to drag Denis to the piano
and get him to sing Irish ballads. Mrs.
Curley has never had to play any ac-
compartments for Denis. He could
listen to anything once, and sit down
to the piano and play 1t by ear.
I looked at Mr.. Pawling, standing up

| need"
The truth of the matter is that,
though Louise was only 26, she had
begun to seem little of an old maid.
1t never occurred to any of us that
she minded this, till she suddenly be-
gan going with Mr. Pawling. We had
thought she was perfectly contented.
Contented-why, she must secretly
have been getting desperatel
do you think Mr.. Pawling is really
serious?" I asked Dulcie.
"Oh, don't imagine he's proposed,
or anything like that yet" she an
swered; but he's going to see Louise
two and three times week. And now
that his brother has died and left him
the other store in Verblen, goodness
knows, he's in a position to support a
wife. I don't see why Louise shouldn't
get him, with half chance"
when she's away with her mother,
though, she hasn't really got half a
chance" said
This was perfectly true. AS any girl
who has ever had the least experience
with men knows, there comes time in
every love affair where you've got to be
alone in order to do your best work.
And, as things were realized that
Louise would practically never get a
chance to be alone with Mr.. Pawling.
II think all of us girls ought to help
Louise out on that" said Dulcie.
WED have to do 1t awfully tactfully,
of course, so as not to hurt Mrs. Cur
ley's feelings. But believe that, If we
really put our minds to it, we could
do it"
II think so too," agreed.

bear to stand by, and see youth and
love and life pass her by altogether.
Sitting there, while Mr.. Pawling was
putting out his chest and rocking in
the cradle of the deep, took solemn
oath with myself. If Louise wanted a

used to see the Curleys with Denis.
Everybody goes over to the Oasis
after the movies, to get sundaes, and
whichever of our crowd happened to
be there would loiter around the door
till the threesome came out. Then
we'd maneuver to get up bunch to
go to the Oasis together and, by posi-
lively diabolical cleverness, arrange it
so that Mrs. Curley would be dragged
in at a table with some of the rest of
us, and Louise and Mr.. Pawling would
have to sit by themselves.
Fortunately, the Curleys lived just
beyond our house and Dulcie's, so that
