CHAPTER TWENTY ONE
 Caught Again

The moon was wrapping big gray cloud around his shoulders when the sailor and Helga skinned back in their ice-boat to the fox's den. They had to return to save the tiny squirrel that had promised to wait for them in holly bush
 They tied their boat to an icicle and crept quietly to the foot of the foXs mountain. Just as they ap- preached the holly bush they heard a squeaky whisper saying, Hey, here I am. Thank goodness, you came The fox has been out look ing all around for me" There was the tiny squirrel. He took flying leap and landed on the sailors hand.
 What is the fox doing?" Helga asked the squirrel
 "Oh, he's just finished breaking up all the furniture in there," said the squirrel. Hes so mad he can't sit down."
 Too Late
 The sailor ana heiga laughed and hurried back to the boat. But they were too late. They heard a rush behind them, and there was the white fox running down the noun tain after them.
 Quick" whispered the sailor Stand close together When he pounces toward us jump to your side"
 The two stood absolutely still and when the fox bounced Helga jumped to her side, and the sailor jumped to his side The white fox bounced right through them, and past them into big snow drift.
 Quick, the bells" shouted Helga to the sailor
 He shook the silver bells that would call the Queen of Fairies. She appeared suddenly by their side,

CHEER BASKETS TO BE WRAPPED
 AT GATHERING
Juneau Woman S Club Meets at Final Event
 Tomorrow

For its third and final activity for | the holiday season, members of the Juneau Womens Club will gather tomorrow afternoon at 1 o'clock at the home of Mrs. Ray G. Day, for a dessert luncheon, after which the afternoon will be spent in assemb- ling and wrapping the 125 Good Cheer baskets which the club will distribute on Christmas Eve to aged and shut-in persons of Juneau. who might otherwise fail to participate in the Christmas festivities.
 Each members of the club is re- quested to be responsible for the contents of three of the Good Cheer baskets, bringing the materials and l the baskets or boxes to Mrs. Days home for this purpose. The bas- kets will be wrapped and labeled during the afternoon, each of them containing, in addition to the Christi mas treat supplied by members, a Christmas candle to be lighted on
 
 Christmas eve with good wishes from the club. It is especially stressed that the baskets do not constitute substantial food offerings, but are merely good cheer greetings con- taining an assortment of Christmas goodies of various kinds
 The clubs annual Mend-It party, held yesterday at the home of Mrs. R. B. Lesher on Willoughby Ave- nue, was unique in that for the first time in it's history, covering a per- iod of eight years-there was no repairing or mending necessary. This was because voluntary contributions from certain interested people ot Juneau made it possible this year to supply brand new toys and gifts for each of the children at the tuber- cular ward in the Government Hos pital. and members who gathered for the usual party had only the pleasure Of wrapping and labelling a laundry basket full of intriguing and interesting looking gifts.
 Santa Claus himself, it was an- nounced, will deliver the gifts, to- gether with certain Christmas good ies on the approved list for small patients, on Christmas morning, and there will be a tree supplied and decorated by the nurses at the hos pital. All children in the hospital, whether tubercular or not, will be remembered by the Club, and all adult tubercular patients will re- ceive a good cheer basket.
 A Christmas party for members vas also feature of the afternoon yesterday, with every member pres ent drawing gift, handed out un-

calling all her fairies and they jumped up from everywhere-out of the snow, down from tree branches and cut of crevices in the rocks.
 Hurry" ordered the Queen cover that snow hummock with a coat of ice. We'll seal the fox in there just long enough for us to get away"
 Covered With Ice
 The fairies rushed to the hum mock of snow, and ran back and forth over it, covering it with ice just as you and I would spread butter over a bun. The fox howled inside, but the ice held him there.
 "Oh, thank you so much said Helga to the Queen of Fairies Isn't there something we can dc for you?"
 "Yes, there is." said the Queen, I've been thinking about it for some time. But we'll have to ask Santa first"
 Isn't it about time to start back for the toyshop?" asked the sailor We must drop this tiny squirrel off with his people on the way"
 "Yes, let's hurry" said Helga. Wont you ride along with us?p she asked the Fairy Queen.
 I'd like to-" said the Queen.
 And can tell you that ride was swift and smooth because the Queen of Fairies was aboard the boat.
