Show THE JORDAN Opened His Purse to Aid the Needy Generous Man's Contribu· tion Assured Caroline Visit From Santa. By ALEC TUPPER - - - T W A 8 a t'huhhy glrl of five years. who stood before a large store window on the wain street, admiring tile wonderful toys arranged in the midst of reo nnt.l grl'en decorations. Every day for two weeks Caroline had appreclatP.d seeing these things, yet she wished so hartl for even one toy. Now the day before Christmas, the biting cold of the morning dld not drive her away from the spot where her head reached high enough to fl.atten the red top of her nose on the plate glass, whlle her eyes dropped very deep to see how It looked In a different shape. There was a hole in each of her mittens, each thumb being drawn In on the palm for warmth, and she gave a hop, first on one foot, then on the other. One toe peeped out of a shoe. Nearly every time Santa pointed automatically to his bag of toys, Caroline laughed so heartily that the plaid coat drawn tightly about her plump waist swelled and nearly lost Its two buttons. And a man had been watching bet· for some time. He came up to her and asloed her what she wanted for Christmas. Caroline answered that mother was very poor this year and perhaps couldn't even buy a Christmas dinner, but she looked kindly at Santa each day now, hoping he would know her very well. The man smiled pleasantly and opened his purse. He loved children and especially such as these. "Here child," he said, "take this and go right home to your mother." Mrs. Bixby was busy Ironing In the basement kitchen, with her little baby In a basket beside her, when Carollne rushed in breathless, holding a bright ten-dollar coin In her reddened, chubby palm, for she kept her mitten off all the way. Wasn't It a happy Christmas for the Blxbys! Caroline said It was from "a man who passed by" and when Mrs. Bixby ofl'ered a little Christmas prayer that night, she was reminded of the Christ who did so much good as He passed by-always conscious of the need~- In body and spirit. She was sure that the Christ can reflect ln this day from those who walk in His path. <©. 1925, We•tern Newspaper Union.) _ C HRISTMAS NIGHT By MARIAM CLARK POTTER '" Y-.tlt.'• ComptaA<ml e CHRISTMAS NIGHT I wonder, In a little waking· dream, How like a pleasant fairy tale the Christmas stockings seem!
