peared into the kitchen again wheres the boy he asked in his room asiecp i let him in the yard a while this after noon after the snow fell and he was all tuckered out sam didnt say anything he was glad timothy was sleeping somehow the boy never thought to askabout the bright red wagon until the supper hour and he never had the courage to tell the lad that he had made a foolish promise and there was no more possibility of a red wagon for christmas than there was that the temperature would reach a hundred degrees on christmas day he maneuvered his chair into the kitchen gave a short thanks and quietly plunged in to the plate of greens and pork he hopedsara wouldntsay any- thing about the wagon either i young timmle nnsied hint self with a erosswood panic someday maybe hed learn io keep his big mouth shut may be someday three years now since he had lost his legs in a jtimin accident he hadnt changed a bit still making prom ises almost impossible to keep the morning before christmas dawned bright and clear in the late iflernoon it began to snow and sara foster hummed a christmas tune as she went- about her kitchen chores the old red rooster long a family friend was dropped into the boiling pot land she set about the making of dumplings young timmie busied himself on the cabin floor meticulously fitting together the pieces of a wooden jig saw puzzle sam foster sat by the window ffa7ing idly across the hills and valleys sara come here he called she stood by his side and he pointed in the direction of the valley road theres acarin trouble down there i saw it slip off the road into the ditch someone may be hurt i think you should go see wrapping herself in sams old army coat and tossing a kerchief across her head the woman opened the door letting in a blast of cold air and a small snow flurry watch the things on the stove for me sam i shouldnt be long sam foster spent the next hour or so wheeling himself back and forth between the kitchen and the front window he saw his wife trudge back up the hill but instead of coming into the cabin she went into the barn emerg ing a few moments later with big red the tired old mule and then the return trip down the hill it was well after dark when sara foster entered the cabin sam was finishing the task of setting plates around the kitchen table i imagine since you didnt say so earlier no one was hurt if not why didnt the fellow you helped come up after that mule himself j wasnt a fella was a woman a grandma she wasnt hurt just slipped off the road i put her back on her way again she wanted to pay me but i didnt take any money sam looked at her curiously your time and work was worth something sara smiled indeed it was i it was worth very much she leaned low to whisper in her hus bands ear she had a bright red wagon in her car was taking it to her grandchildren i took that as she said she could get another one in town sain foster grinned well ill be he paused then wheeled to the doorway hey timmie boy put up that puzzle and come to supper dont you knowtliisis christmas eve boy therell be no- red wagon for boys who dont 0 to bed when they should uyouie a bunch of silly old fools and thats my honest

mejn on a birthday party next week or a welcome to spring celebration and if you have any such plans for next christmas count me out i hive more taportint things to do christmas is the majric word that holds the spirit of good will at this blessed season a strange and indefinable spirit takes possession of our world on the first christmas day god sent his son into the world to teach the lesson of love the love of god for all mankind and theloveof every man for his fellows and in this twofold relationship lies the answer to the greatest problem of our time the problem of human relationships if the christmas spirit of divine love could be translated into terms of everyday living by the people of the world there would be less strife less bitterness and les3 suffering an meal yes but isnt that what christmas is a glorioiis shining ideal a confession of our faith that somehow with gods help we can achieve peace on earth and good will- among men you can begin to make this ideal a reality in your own life today by remembering not what you have done for others btitwhatothers have done for you not what the world owes you but what you owe the world not what you are going to get out of life but what vou are going to give to life not your own needs and heartaches but the needs and heartaches of others thus thespirifcof christmas will become the answer to the strife and confusion of an uneasy and troubled world christmas is a good time to think of others and many at this season of the year like to express their feelings of gratitude and goodwill by the giving of gifts we suggest christmas is a good time to think of your home hospital where every hour of every iay of the year devoted and dedicated people labor in the blessed mission of mercy and healing the doors of your home hospital are always open to welcome to its tender care and attention the sick and the injured and your hospital is working continuouslyto provide the very best in facilities and care for the relief of pain and suffering your home hospital depends in large measure on the financial support of the people of the district and we extend grateful thanks for the generous support which has been accorded in the past our hospitals arestill- faced witha substantial burden of debt and still many more dollars are needed for additional supplies andequipment yoor donaiion will be moslywelcome and we invite you
