U r n O M O R R O W ’S Christmas ■ I day, tomorrow's Christmas A day,” little Dorothy was singing as she was prancing about the dingy apartment. She’d stop to roll up the sleeves that were con­ tinually slipping down over her hands. No wonder they didn’t stay up, for the dress was one that Helen, two years -older, had outgrown.' Mother had meant to make it over, but she was too tired when she got home from cleaning house for other people all day. "Hush up, Dorothy. Mother will be coming in. pretty soon, and she’ll cry if we say anything about Christ­ mas,” Helen reminded her. " I don’t see why. Christmas is a time to laugh, and not to cry,” Dor­ othy responded philosophically. “Don’t you remember last Christ­ mas, and how daddy didn’t come home with our packages?” Helen couldn’t believe that even so little a sister as Dorothy should forget that. For daddy had never been heard from since that Christmas eve. As Dorothy started to reply, Hel­ en warned her: “Sh-, there comes mother,.”- and the youngsters were silent when she entered. Mrs. Bond, tired and absorbed in her own anx­ ious thoughts, did not heed their un- Snbsoribs to THE HERALD Mrs. Bond was roused By a knock a t the door. childlike quiet. Her apathy had de­ veloped that trait in them, and she was unaware of what her sorrow was doing to h e r . children. She busied herself with the simple meal, and Dorothy’s faint, “Mother, is Santa coming tonight?” was the cause of her only break: “My poor baby, I ’m afraid Santa doesn’t even know you exist,” she sobbed. She was getting them into bed, and they were soon asleep, their pillows wet with their tears that Santa was not coming. Too tired to sew, and in deepest depression, Mrs. Bond waa roused from her inert brooding by a rap a t the door. A caller was unheard of. No one came to see her, for 'she had re­ pelled all kindly offers of assistance when her husband disappeared. She ignored the knock. When .it came again it was a significant signal, two short raps, repeated three times. Her husband’s knock! Quivering with excitement, she moved toward the door. Her fingers were trembling so that-she could hardly turn the key. The door opened, and she gasped, “Tom!” as the sturdy, well-dressed man ex­ claimed, “Barbara!” and took her in his arms. Then, after a long embrace, he led her to the big chair she bad just quitted, and drew her on h .i lap while they talked to­ gether. “ I left you .hristmas eve to do the last-minute shopping. But. an icicle struck my head, and knocked me unconscious. I couldn’t remem­ ber who I was or where I lived. I went to a hotel and after a few days got work as a salesman. I told my boss my predicament, and he has been very kind. Today, Christmas shopping- somehow brought back to me who and what I was. And I .couldn’t wait to find you!” “But how did you ever trace us?” Barbara asked. “ I thought I left no clues. I thought you had desert­ ed me, when we found you weren’t an'accident case.” “Deserted you? You? My poor Child,” and he drew her close again, “ I did have a heck of a. time, but old Jack, the baggage man, finally told me where you had moved to. But now we must get ready for last year’s Christmas, And hext week we'll get out of this hdvel.” Tom's affluence was apparent. “My dear, my dear, I don't mind the hovel, now that you ara safely home,” Barbara whispered. “All right, Babs, old girl. But atop Crying down my neck if you are really glad to have me back,” but his tender kiss belied his joking words, ©—WNU Service.
