"Well, mother, nothing; but read this telegram," answered Tom, handing the telegram to his mother. The telegram was frm the attorney of their uncle, stating that Frank White had died, leaving two orphan children, and asking if the Whites would take them. "Oh, mother, surely you are not going to take them," lamented Beth. "That depends on Tom," replied his mother. "Gee Whiz!" spoke up Fred, "what do we want with kids? Why, we can't have a thing for Christmas. "Yes you can," said Tom, "but we're going to take those children any." "Well that settles it," grumbled Fred. The days sped on and Bob and Ruth arrived. They immediately won a place in the family and even Fred said, "Two of the cutest kids ever." Christmas morning dawned clear and white. Strangely, too, Santa had found plenty of presents for everv one. The surprise came when Mrs. White opened a letter which Bob had been instructed to place on the tree. The letter stated that Frank White had valuable oil property which the Whites would receive ownership on if they took the children otherwise it would go to the orphanage. y'Gee! but I'm glad we took the children," exclaimed Tom. "You know I believe it was the Christmas spirit that prompted me to say we'd take those children." THELDA TURNER, Seventh Grade.
