LATHROP O LD MAN THOMAS lived in what the kids called The Haunted House at the edge of town. He ran boys off when they tried to snitch the apples which he left to rot on the ground, and he bought a fierce dog to keep out trespassers. Some said he had a fortune stashed away some where on the place, but others said he was just odd. When winter came this year, Thomas boarded up the windows and everybody figured he’d gone to spend the cold months with his daughter in the city. Then one morning folks noticed smoke curl ing from a back chimney. The Egberts who had moved in across the road in the fall felt they ought to investigate. “If that old man is over there alone, it seems as if someone should have done something for him for Christmas,” Molly Egbert said. But Fred said he was sure the smoke only began a few days after Christmas, and there were no tracks in the fresh snow. Worried “You take this mince pie and go over, Fred,” Molly insisted. “He might be down sick or some thing.” *v: “Wait a minute,” Fred call ed. “My wife sent you a pie.” “He run me off the last time I tried to be neighborly,” Fred argued.” But I reckou I ought to go see. Sure thought he was gone.” So Fred trudged down the road with the pie. When he hammered on the back door he could hear the dog barking, but far off as if he were in the rootcellar that was attached to the old basement. After a long time the barking got nearer and finally the old man peered out the cellar door. He was grizzled and unshaven and his gaunt form seemed to be tot tering in the chill wind. “What d’ye wunt?” he croaked, blinking in the sunlight on the snow. “Oh—it’s you, eh?” “Come to see if you’re alive 3r need anything,” Fred called. “Thought you’d gone away for the winter. No lights over here, but we finally saw you had a smoke.” “Yeah, I had to give in and light a fire. Got too durned cold in that cellar. But I don’t need a thing. Let me alone.” And he started to slam the door shut again. Refusal “Wait a minute,” Fred called. “My wife sent you a mince pie. We always have mince pie on New Year’s.” And Fred held it 3ut. But the old man waved it away. “New Year’s you say? Has it been Christmas then? Never thought ye’d all live to see it. But I’m not eatin’ any of your con taminated food. You can die if you want. Not me!” Fred couldn’t figure him out. “My wife’s the cleanest cook in this town, I’U bet. What do you mean, insultin’ her cooking?” “Oh, she may be clean enough, but I wouldn’t eat a bite except what I put away underground. Ain’t the Russians bombed you out yet? They was a-comin’ when I holed in. I sposed they’d been by now.” Fred had to laugh. “Well, of all things! I guess you got a head start on the rest of us. Everybody talks about a fall-out shelter but nobody does anything about it But what would there be to come out to if they bombed us? Yoi goin’ to die down here?” Old Man Thomas scratched his head. “1 never thought about that Reckon I am. But anyway. I’ll live till my time comes. The rest of you’ll be blown to bits before the year’s out. Say, maybe I will take that pie after all—if they ain’t come yet. So it’s New Year’s, eh? Mary always made a mince pie for New Year’s too.” His face took on a wistful look Maybe the old fellow wasn’t as flinty as he seemed. Fred put the pie on the rough-hewn table. “Well, whenever you need any thing, come out and let me know , or run up a white flag. And a Happy New Year to you.” The old man grinned. At last he seemed friendly as if he hated to have Fred go. “Well, come back if they don’t get ye,” he called as Fred went up the steps. “And a Happy New Year to you, too,” Two-Faced Janus The month of January was named “Janus” by the Romans, in honor of the two-faced god who was believed to have the power to look back over the past and be able to foretell the future. Janus was always represented with a key in one hand, suggesting he Bnh nnwpr to odcd all doors and Love is tlie lieart of Ckristmas; its spirit is peace, and Lope tke glad ness.
