Today's Short Story COOKIES FOR WILL By Ruth K. Kent RIDER frowned as she hung her heavy coat in the | | hall closet, The house smelled suspiciously of cookies in spite of the airing she'd given it before going out. And Cleta would be home soon. Mother Rider sniffed through the living room and into the den. She'd have to light one of Cleta's oriental punks. With shaky hand she held the match to the incense, and watched the thread of smoke weave upward. Cleta must never guess about the | cookies. Not that Cleta objected to cookies . , , she was always buying some dry little blobs for Will to eat. It was the baking that she had forbidden , mother-in-law baking. The old lady went Into the liv- ing room and turned on the | Christmas trae lights, Will'd be. | tickled to see the tree. all trim. | med . . . he was such a big kid. | And it might cheer Cleta to be | greeted by the lights, she'd be | frazzled after her day at the Day Nursery, Mother Rider beamed at the framed picture of blond sweetness on the mantle, Cleta really was the dearest daughter. in-law. Else why'd she said, when Mother Rider came to spend the Christmas month with them, "Darling, you're not to touch a dish or pan in this house. I abso- lutely forbid it." And she'd taken the worn hand and rested it | against her warm cheek. "You've | worked all your life, Now you must rest." » At first it had been nice to sit down to the dainty meals Cleta served, then get up and walk away from the dishes. But an old woman soon hankers for her pots and pans, especially 'at a time | when a house should be reeking | of cookies and pies. But Cleta had | been raised so differently, natur- ally the child didn't realize. i Mother Rider gave one more big | sniff when she heard the car door slam, She still smelled: cookies = « + OF Was her conscious getting | spicy? | The door opened and closed quickly against the wind and snow. Will huggeu. his mother and Cleta draped her fur coat over the hall chair, "Gee, mother, I feel like a kid every time I smell a Christmas tree." And he danced her around the room. "Dinner'll be ready in a sec," Cleta called from the kitchen, Browning Ross Wins Marathon For Second Time a -- Berwick, Pa, Nov. 20--(AP)-- Sophomore Browning Ross of Vil- lanova won the Berwick Marathon for the second consecutive year, on Thursday, with Canadian competi- tors finishing fourth and fifth. Ross covered the nine miles in je minutes 37 seconds, finishing 50 i yards in front of y Kelly of Boston, four.time victor the event. John St. Clair of Philadel. phia was third. Robert Rankin of Galt track club ran fourth and Walter Fedorick of Hamilton Olympic Club fifth, "Can't 'IT help, dear?" Mother Rider asked. "No, thanks. How'd you get through the day alone?" "Just fine," Mother Rider called back, "I puttered around, and went for a walk." Two walks, in fact, and now she was glad to rest, She'd had 'to- walk a long ways to a grocery where Cleta wasn't known to buy three eggs, a tiny sack of flour and sugar and thing: . , . it didn't seem fair to use Cleta's ingredi- ents for the cookies. It was bad enough invading the forbidden kitchen. Cleta'd be hurt if she found o it, probably angry. She'd have a right to be. No one had ever messed around in the Rider kitchen if they weren't wanted there, The little lady had no appetite for dinner despite Will's coaxing and Cleta's anxious insistence. When WII asked, "What's for des- sert, Cle?" Mother Rider kept her eyes firmly on her plate. "You'll see," Cleta laughed, 'T'll get it now." She removed the dishes and re- turned from the kitchen with a plate of cookies, Mother Rider gave them one glance, then sighed softly and turned her eyes away. When Will saw the stars and Christmas trees with red and green frosting he let out a whoop from the depth of his six feet. His large hand scooped up half a dozen. "Gee, mom ,,. you , , .* Cleta smiled, "I thought you'd laugh at them." "Laugh?" Will gasped, "Why |' we always , . )" "Will," Mother gently, "Cleta's plain." : "Well, you see," Cleta contin- ued, "they were having a baking sale in the lobby at the Nursery today. This evening Mrs. Blane chard stopped me , , , said she'd saved my 'cookies for me, It seems I was supposed to have ordered these. Well , , , I had to buy them." "Gee . . » I thought mother baked them." "Certainly not," Cleta said. Will pushed one into his mouth, 'I know it now. They aren't as good as hers."

Four fire fire five hours, "Freedom Or Slavery" Youth For Christ Topic - The Youth for Christ Rally was lield in Simcoe Street United Church Saturday night, with Major H, G. Roberts as Director and Mrs. L. Griffin at the piano, In the absence of the regular song leader, Bob Sweet very ably 'led the congregation in a number of choruses and a few testimonies. Miss Marlie MacFarlane, out- standing contralto soloist of Ham- ilton, sang three numbers--"Clear Sky," "The Love of God" and "Whiter Than Snow." She was accompanied at the piano by her mother. The "Harmonica-Aires" played for their first number, 'When T Sea the Blood," "At Cal- vary" and "There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood." For their second appearance on the program they played "The Old Rugged Cross." These selections were ed by all. Rev. R. A, Bombay directed the "21 Question Quiz," with Major Roberts, Major A. P. Simester, Bob Sweet and Archie Goldsmith participating. It took 18 ques- tions to arrive at the correct ans- wer--*"The Helmet of Salvation." An accordion duet, "The Love of God," by Don and Lorraine Man- ning was much appreciated. Ruth Clarke and Doreen Holmes, two sisters who are Youth for Christ usherettes, very capably sang, "The Old Country Chapel" and "Back of the Clouds," accompanied by their mother, Mrs, Holmes. The guest speaker, Major Sime- ster, who was the first Oshawa Fouth for Chilst director, spoke on the subject -- "Freedom of Slavery," taking for his text St. John 8:32 "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free," and St. John 8:36, "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed"=-- x] IRE I | ae en brigades fought the pointing out that freedom is not "having your own way." If we are slaves to habits, we are bound by those habits and not free, but if we walk in the truth of God's word we can enjoy spiritual freedom which Christ promised to give those that would obey Him. Major Simester stated that there were 14,000 boys and girls in On- tario last year who were first- timers in jail, and that there were one million habitual drinkers in the U.S.A. They had lost their freedom--being bound by the fet- ters of sin. The singing of the chorus "He Can Break Every Fetter" very fit- tingly brought the message to a close and Major Roberts dismissed the Rally with prayer. The next Youth for Christ Rally will. be- held in Simcoe Street United Church on December 13. This will be the second anniversary of Youth for Christ in Oshawa and the speaker will be Rev. Har- old Martin of Orillia, plus the King's Radio Quintet of Toronto. The reign of Emperor Ken Lung of China -- from 1735-1798 -- was warked by 16 major foods.
