BY ONA F. 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

piness for wkick you are wisking.
