The potato grading occupied any spare time, the number of helpers drawn from any who al- lo\ved themselves to be caught at less important work or at a pleas. urable pastime. "An hour, will only be exercise for you, Ellen" James said, and I let myself be carried away with small persuasion, Rob and Jamie came on the way to the mill, and they too were drawn into the activity at‘ hand‘.

Yesterday Jamie chose to remain for the evening rather than to accompany his father home to at- tend to the evening chores. He thought that he might hear Santa on the radio, theirs having a tube missing. But. Santa, was having a night off. If such beliefs tend to make children “splnelesﬂ as some authorities believe, then I am u- {raid for Jamie's future. Last cve. ning we wove lovely tales about that gentleman, who in Jamie's words "shakes when he laughs like a bowlful of 1am." We sat in | a roomy rocking chair, close by the fire. Jamie is well read on the in- itial details of Santa's important night, having learned the facts over and over from “"I\vas the Night before Christmas." The sub- sequent events he finds equally in. trlgulng. "Now after he goes hock to the North Pole1...? “We pieced

urnlly he would warm his feet nt his own fire aide while "Mrs. Sonia brought him a big cup of ten ’n some bread ‘n butter ‘n a slice or two of white bear meat“ for wonder that it is “Santa don't keep any pork-pigs." The hired man gave each tired reindeer “n little drink, for Graddaddy says not too mach when they're hot-‘n clover hay ‘n put a rug on each one" and hung the harness up until Mrn. Santa has time to clean and polish every last bell, I supply, softly sarcastic “ ’n she'll put it sway in a great lg box for another year." And then Santa drowsy would stretch himself on the couch and Mrs. Santa would cover him with a blanket and sing s pretty aong to him llkc this-but neither story nor song would bring sleep to Jo. mle's eyes while he was our guest last evening,
