G.N.SO 1t was Christmas Day,
but the Dionne quintuplets slept
soundly in the snappy winter air
under a lovely northern sun,
tucked away in their carriages on
the veranda of the Dafoe Hospital
and unaware of the excitement
within.
Inside the hospital a large
turkey was ready for the oven.
And there was cranberry jelly,
plum pudding and all other tradl-
tional delicacies for a yuletide
feast. Mr. and Mrs. Olivia Dionne

been invited to take Christmas
dinner at the hospital.
The Dionnes, however, said that
while they will see the quintuplets
and spend part of Christmas at
the hospital, they probably would
not take dinner there.
Hundreds of gifts for the quin-
tuplets have arrived from all over
the world. Some have come from

mail have arrived for the nurses.
There are five lovely baby cots,
whose peach color will blend har-
moniously with the nursery. Five
high chairs and two babies play
yards will be put in use after the
New Year.
Across the road from the hos
pital at the Dionne farmhouse Mrs.
Dionne, her young face covered
with smiles, said the five older
children all were happy over the
visit from st. Nicholas. She was
busy icing the Christmas cake.
Whenever her back was turned,
little Daniel, three, stuck his
chubby fingers into the icing and
smacked his lips gleefully.
But while Mrs. Dionne smiled
over her icing at neighbor's girl
who was shining the coaloil
lamps, her heart was a little sad
this Christmas. She wanted her
five wee babes all to herself. But
she was too proud to complain.
