“'T'HE trouble with having such
an all-fired modem family
and trying to keep up with them,”
Alice told herself as she looked
around the hotel dining room on
Christmas Day, “is that modernism
and Christmas just don’t go to
gether.”
Her face felt as stiff as a hard
ened jelly mold from holding the
smile she was determined not to re
lax, and internally she was positive
ly wound up from the effort to emu
late the rest of the gay, noisy people
who were here instead of being at
home where Alice thought they
should be on that day above all oth
ers that has made your own fireside
the place you most like to be.
While they waited for the entree
she and William were alone, sitting
at opposite ends of the long table
watching their children dance. Each
one had been permitted a guest of
his own age, but Alice’s eyes were
focused on her tall, dark-haired Bill
and his slim, golden-haired girl,
Rosemary. Bill would soon be
eighteen, that was why he fixed her
attention.
William came over and sat be
side her. “Happy, Alice?” he said,
and covered her hand with his.
She returned his smile. After all,
this spree was costing enough to
have bought three or four turkeys
for home consumption. “You were
right, dear,” she said. “The young
sters love it.” s*
“Rosemary told me this is the one
orchestra of all on the air that she’d
choose to see,” he said proudly.
“It’s a holy wonder her folks would
let her out of the house on Christ
mas Day.”
“The Custers are pretty old-fash
ioned people,” said Alice, feeling
that she was complimenting the
girl’s family.
“We’re good for the Custers,"
said William. “They need stirring
up. It’s a fine thing for Rosie to get
out and see a bit of the world.”
“They’re having their Christmas
dinner tonight,” said Alice. “Mrs.

“Happy, Alice?” he asked.
Custer has invited Bill before the
young people go to the dance.”
“Come on, Alice, let’s show these
kids what for.” In spite of the crowd,
William covered the ground as he
had in college when she fell in love
with him. She was glad that she had
managed to have her hair done Sat
urday. The gardenias the children
had given her to wear to church yes
terday were still fresh. She’d let
Sister wear them tonight if her date
didn’t crash through. Bill had bet
Sis fifty cents he wouldn’t.
The orchestra melted into “White
Christmas,” and young Bill tapped
his father on the shoulder. “Mom’s
favorite, Dad. Let’s change.”
Alice said, “You dance Imost as
well as your Dad.”
“Look at him, will you?” said
Bill. “Quite the old boy.”
Before long everyone was helping
Bill and Sister dress for the dance.
Bill lost his wager, and whistled
over the red roses that were just
right on the turquoise blue of Sis
ter’s frock.
She said Bill looked simply gor
geous in his tuxedo and when his
father saw him he said, “Too bad
they don’t w'ear ’em in the army,
son.”
They heard Bill call Rosemary’s
number on the phone downstairs
and then he closed the door for pri
vacy. “Wouldn’t you think,” said
Sister, “he’d give the poor girl a
chance to take a bath? I bet she
gets good and sick of him.”
Suddenly Alice remembered a call
she had forgotten to make about the
baskets the church distributed yes
terday. She flew to the upstairs’
extension, and when she heard Bill
still talking in leisurely fashion, she
opened her mouth to say, as she
often did when necessary, “Hang up,
you two. I need the phone.”
But she didn’t say those words or
any others. She listened a few mo
ments and her eyes filled with tears.
The disappointment and hurt at
the way her family had preferred to
spend their Christmas vanished as
her very best Christmas present of
1845 was received on the wire.
“Heck no,” Bill was saying. “I
can hardly wait for an old-fash
ioned Christmas dinner. That hotel
business was all Dad’s idea so
Mom wouldn’t have to cook and
wash dishes all day. None of us liked
it at all. Mom had p good time,
though.”

THE BLESSINGS
CHRISTMAS
As we herald the approach of another
Christmas season, we count our blessings
in good friends and pleasant associations.
It is appropriate, then, that we extend
our warmest greetings and add the hope
that the coming year will be the best you
have ever enjoyed and that from the experi
ences of the past we may gain strength for
the problems of the future.
