CHRISTMASTIDE,
‘Because there was no room’
“The blasts of the winter are fierce and cold,
The snow lies deep over hill and wold
But a star shines bright through the deepen-
ing gloom—
Room for the Christ-child, room !
“Where man’s distrust and his greed for gain
Have frozen the floods of tender rain,
Till never a flower of hope can bloom —
Room for the Christ-child, room!
“In homes that deepest griefs have borne,
‘Mid silent forms of those that mourn,
In the shadows that gather around the tomb—
Room for the Christ-child, room !
“Where nations are warring, life for life,
And a ery rings out from the fearful strife
As a dying people sinks to its doom—
" Room for the Christ-child, room !
“Room for the shepherds of Bethlehem,
Room fof the angels who sang to them,
Room for the Light, in the wintry gloora—
© Room for the Christ-child, room!”

THEIR FIRST REAL CHRISTMAS.
There bad been other Christmases; for
they bad been married nearly four years.
In their new characters of the holiday saint
and his wife, and the delight of watching
blue eyes widen and baby lips round with
slow comprehension of Christmas mysteries,
they remembered, with a kind of tender
pity, those two young persons who had sat
down alone at a small white table and look-
ed at each other happily over an infinitesi-
mal green tree.
Now, at last, Richie had developed an
imagination equal to unquestioning belief
in saints and reindeers, and even Mary
Dorothy showed her appreciation of the
Christmas legend, lisping sweetly, “*Sant
Law Klisma.’” That proved conclusively
to Nan and Richard that their first real
Christmas would be a success.
One day the baby dashed off a letter in
a reckless hand and Richie labored and
sighed with shaky fingers and blunt wet
pencil point over a scrawl of acute angles
huddled together in picket fence fashion
and varied by occasional smooches and
huge periods.
“Can he read it, Mama?’ he asked, anx-
jously, and Nan was quite sure he could
and was asked to read it herself.
“Let's see,’” she hegan. ‘‘Dear Santa
Claus—why, Richie, it’s just as plain!
Now, won't yon read the rest, dear, while
I thread this needle?’ :
“Dear Santa Claus,’”’ sang Richie, ‘I
want a big red hall and some pop corn and
a tree and a gun. I've been a good boy.
Please bring papa and mama and the hahy
somefin nice. Don’t forget the gun. I will
keep my eyes shut tight.”’
‘Why, Richie, you don’t want a gun!”
exclaimed Nan, carelessly. ‘‘Only big boys
have guns.’’
“Yes, I do,” insisted Richie. ‘‘Eddie
has one. He’s most littler than me,’’ Then
the letters were put out on the window sill
for Santa Claus to collect, with stones to
keep them fiom blowing away ; and later,
Nan aud Richard laughed tenderly over the
queer, weak sorawls.
Nan translated. ‘‘He said he wanted a
guu, too, Dick—an air gun like Eddie Ar-
nold’s, I suppose. But I am afraid he
mighé burt himself or the baby.” :
“Oh,” Dick assured her, ‘‘he will forget
all about the gun when he sees the train of
cars [ am going to ges him.”
“When is Christmas, mama?’’ asked
Riobie, repeatedly. ‘Is it one day ?”’
At last it was one day. Nan explained,
with difficnlty, that it was the day before
Christmas—which meant that the next day
was Christmas—which meant—yes, of
course—that Christmas was one day. And
she hung one of the baby’s ridiculous lit-
tle socks, the children, like goops in their
flannel night drawers, watching the cere-
mony with solemn faces.
That night Nan and Richard burried
shrough dinner. The crisp air had soften-
ed and flakes of snow feliin fluffy stars up-
on Nan’s boa and wuff when they stepped
ingo the sleigh. The streets were crowded ;
the shop windows displayed brilliang
Senor) horns tooted madly. Nan and Dick
elbowed their way and stood bewildered,
over Christmas beauties. Trees had dwind-
"led- down to afew insignificant scrawny
ones, hut they drove persistently and found
a spruce, full branched and tapering. It
was too tall; but they took it and went
happily back for more tinsel.
In the narsery, with occasional exits for
string aud nails, they spoke in whispers,
took council on the hanging of colored balls
aud sugared animals, and ascended and de-
scended a vacillating ladder.
nl lovely 2’ oried Nan. “I can
just see Mary Dorothv clapping her hands
over the bahy doll and the nlack mammy !’
“That train of cas is a beauty,’ said
Richard. ‘‘I think it will keep Richie
busy for a week or so. Are you ready Nao?
It is two o'clock!"
The lighte went ont with a snap and
they stoledown the hall. In the room nex$
to theirs, the children slept. Nan ventur-
ed in, Dick following, uttering warnings.
The hight shown in upon the two little
cribs and toached softly the children’s rosy
faces and close downy cnrls. ‘‘They are
dreaming ahout tomorrow,"’ as she resoned
one of Richie's wandering legs and tucked
it beneath the blankets.
~~ *‘And it is tomorrow !"’ whispered Dick.
“Merry Chiivtmas, Mis. Nicholas !"’
A tiny figure, faintly white, piped from
the threshold, ‘‘Did be come ?’
Nan took him in beside her, and whis-
pered that he must let papa sleep a listle
donger. This was a good deal to ask,
thonght Richie, and yielded to temptation
-ansii = his: father murmured sleepily,
‘What's up?’’ and from the next room
came soprano cooings, an unintelligible
morning chant. Then he was allowed to
~diseover the bulging stockings; and the
bahy was brought in; and they saton the
‘bed and crowed gleefully over tiny candy
vhags and a weak little muric box.
While Annie was dressing them, Richard
and Nan hurried into the nursery, Dick to
Jight the tree, Nan to smuggle in some-
whing for her hushand. Then a long whis-
“tle announced that everything was ready.
. Richie ran on ahead Nan, too impatient
_ to wait for Mary Dorothy's unc: reain steps,
. picked her up and carried her swiftly down
* the hall.
* In front of the window stood the tree,
j glistening with a network of spun tinsel
- and twinkling with, starry Christmas can
- dles—a hlaze of color and light in the dark
room. Gay ornaments of fantastico shapes.
chains of bright halls. and paper and sugar
animals dangled from the brauches, On
the green iridescent pinnacle hovered a
lovely angel with cobweb wings.
Diok and Nan watched the children ex-
peotantly. 5
Richie's glance rested briefly aud with
‘selfish little beasts.
wonder upon the tree; then it fell to the
heap of packages at the foot and remained
there. ‘What's that?’ he demanded,
pointing to one.
“Tan’t it lovely, Richie ?'’ cried Nan, en-
shusiastically. ‘Do you see the candy
‘rooster—and the elephant—"’
«What's that 2’ demanded Richie again.
“I ¢hink we ought to begin, Dick,” said
Nan. ‘‘They can look at the tree after-
wards.”
“All right!’ said Richard. ‘‘Here is
something for the baby from Santa Claus.”
The bahy stared.
“'See the baby dolly,” Nan hastened to
explain, ‘and here is a good old black
mammy who takes care of her the way An-
nie does yon. Isn’t she a funny old
thing ?”’
Nan’s eager voice implored Mary Doro:
thy to stretch forth her hands gleefully and
chuckle with delight. Instead, her lips
quivered ; and as the black doll approached
her, she turned to her mother with a burst-
ing sob.
“What is the matter ?’’ asked Richard,in
dismay.
“Won't you look at the dear old mam-
my, dear ?’’ coaxed Nan. “And the sweet
little baby doll ?”” The baby answered by
another explosion of grief. ‘‘Why she is’6
afraid of her old nurse, isshe? Such a
nice doll with ber funny turban!”
Mary Dorothy turned away, crying more
loudly. Richard exclaimed, brilliantly,
*‘Nan, she’s afraid of it!”
*‘Well, then, she doesn’t have to look at
her if she doesn’t want to! We’ll tell papa
to put her in the closet and lock her up.
And we won’t let her out until Mary Doro-
thy wants her!” :
At this juncture, Richie, who had been
testing packages by pats and pinches, gave
a desperate sigh, and his father rewarded
his patience by reading his name on some-
thing big and round.
“What iss ?'’ asked Richie, politely, as
it rolled from his lap to the floor.
“A drum !”’ said Richard. ‘‘Look ! Rub-
a-dub-dub—"’
“What's in here ?”’ demanded Richie, ig-
noring his father’s efforts and pointing to
something that was noticeable for its length.
“Why, that's for ‘Dick from Nan,’”’
read Richard; and Nan blushed and said :
“I isn’t anything much, Dick. You had
$0 have one. Let us leave our presente to
the last.”’
Richie was visibly disappointed ; but oth-
er packages had to be opened, and he sat
on the floor in the midst of games and toys
while his father taught him how to make a
train of cars go and a top spin.
“What's this 2’ he demanded again. ris-
ing abruptly and approaching the few re-
maining packages.
«Those are for papa and mama, Richard,’’
said his father, impatiently, because he had
been for some time unpleasantly conscious
of his san’s lack of attention.
‘Is that all 2’ asked Richie, tremulous-
ly.
His father stared and Nan looked up from
her endeavors to entice the haby into good
humor with a red ball—one of Richie's
presents. ‘‘Good heavens ! what more does
the boy want?’ demanded Dick, angrily.
“Isn't he satisfied ?”’
“What is the matter, dear?’’ asked Nan.
“There is the train of cars you wrote for—
and all the other things?”
Richie’s face twitched ominously and he
retired behind a obair from which a mo-
ment later, came an unmistakable smiffing,
growing in intensity, that aroused the bahy
to low sympathetic renewal of her sorrow.
“Well, I think that this is abont the
limit 1"? exclaimed Dick, disgustedly.
“Now, Richard, this has got tostop !"’
*:Don’t be cross, Dick,”’ advised Nan.
“‘Come here, old chap.” coaxed Richaid,
with an effort to soften his voice, ‘‘and tell
me what’s the matter?”’ Richie howled,
“I don’t know !”” and his father threw up
his hands in despair. \
Mary Dorothy choked over a dry sob and
Nan murmured that she had bester take
her out of the room.
From the nursery came a sobbing mum-
ble. Nan put the baby on the bed and
rolled the red ball playfully toward her.
The haby responded faintly, and Nan, feel-
ing all at once very unbappy and tired, lay
down beside her and let a few tears well
up into her eyes. The dull light of an
early winter morning, when the snow falls
steadily, was in the room. She and Dick
bad looked forward so eagerly to this morn-
ing; they had been so happy the night he-
fore; they had worked so long over the
sree—and—Nan felt the tears rolldown her
cheeks.
Richard strode into the room. ‘I can’t
make him stop and I can’t get anything ont
of him. He doesn’t do anything but howl;
so-I’ve pnt ous the candles and he can stay
there alone and—why, what’s the matter ?”’
‘I was so tired and—-disappointed, Dick,”
Nan apologized tremulously for her tears.
¢*We—I shonghs it would hesaoch fun—and
Richie didn’s even look at the tree—and
Mary Dorothy was afraid—and I thought
she would like evervthing so much—"’
As that, Dick’s anger broke forth with an
angry gesture thas sens the ball rolling out
of the baby’s reach and the words, ‘It’s
always the way ! Do all you cau for your
children ! Do they cate? Work and slave
aud they reward you with ingratitude.
Don’t even thank you for what you have
done, but want more—aren’ satisfied !”
‘I suppose, perhaps, they are too young
to—to understand,” suggested Nan, with
the instinct of defending her offspring.
“Tao young ?'’ snorted Richard. *‘Isn’t
that the excuse we gave last year? Then
what's the matter with our children? Are
they idiots? Aren’t they ever going to be
old enough?’
ssRichard !"’ exclaimed Nan, indignantly,
“you know very well they are not idiots !"’
“Yes, I do,’’ continued Dick. ‘‘It’s my
opinion that they are simply ungrateful,
I have been working
thas tiain of cars for an hour ! Do you sup-
pose that was avy fun? Richie didn’t look
at that either.”
“Richard, bow you talk! Itcouldn’t
have been so long. I haven't heen in here
more than fifteen minutes !”’
Richard went to the window, muttering.
“I; is still snowing,’’ he announuced,gloomnm-
ily. ‘When are we going to have break-
fast ?'’
“Not until eight o’clock,”’ said Nau, de-
spondently. ‘I thought it wouldn’t—be
over 80 goon. We wight godownstairs and
get something.”’
Richard did not answer; and the baby
fell over, gurgling, as the ied ball eluded
her grasp and escaped to the floor.
“Dick, don’t you see,’ entreated Nan.as
they ivokedl ab the little face dimpling with
recovered smiles, ‘‘they are too young.
don’t know what I was thinking of to buy
all these things for the baby ! Why, Dick,
Mary Dorothy is only fourteen months old,
and lact year Richie was a month older and
he didn’t even know what Christmas
meant !"’
¢“Thas doesn’t help Richie out,’’ mutter-
ed Dick. ‘He is old enough to have some
fain sparks of appreciation and gratitude,
it seems to me. We have given him every-
thing he a<ked for and a great deal more.
Next vear I think we bad better out Christ-
mas oat.”
“I don’t understand,”’ began Nan
thonghtfnlly,* ‘what is the matter with him.
Ob, Dick, you don’t suppose—don’s you
remember I told you that he wanted a gun?
He was probably so disappointed ! Oh, I
am quitesure that 1s the reason he has been
erying so!”
“I don’t see that it makes any difference
itit is. He ought to have been satisfied
with the things he did get.”’
- “But, Dick, we promised him that Santa
Claus would bring bim everything he wrote
for 2’
*“Well, he might just as well learn first
as last that he won’t always get everything
he wants. The stores are shut, anyway.’’
“I know!” cried Nan; “Eddy Arnold
has one. He won’t think of it today. You
can hurry there—it is only half a block—
aud ask Mrs. Arnold if she won’t lend it to
us for today. We can return it to-morrow,
or send a new one. Yes, they will be up,
of course—with children—Dick, please
don’t be mean! Richie’s heart is broken !
If I had only known—bunt I dislike guns
so! Perhaps we can fix it so it won’t work.
You are awfully good, Dick !”’
Twenty minutes later,she met him at the
door with a whispered, ‘‘Did you get it?”
and Richard held forth the gun.
At the door of the nursery, they paused.
Richie on tip toe was balancing himself
with flopping arms, as he reached with an
open bird’s mouth for the sugar animals on
the lower branches of the tree. Nan and
Dick looked at each other and smiled.’
“Why, what's this?” cried Dick, loudly.
“Look here, Richie. Here is something
that Santa Clans must have dropped when
he hurried away. It’s marked for you.”
Richie ran eagerly, hope shining on his
tear stained face. ‘‘Igeth,”’ hecried,gulp-
ing down the last victim’s head, ‘‘I geth
it’s the gun. I fonght he wouldn’t forges.’
“Is it all right ?'’ asked his father, with
lurking doubt.
“Boom !"’ answered Richie,aiming fierce-
ly at a paper bird in the tree.
‘Well 1" exclaimed Dick, looking from
.the floor where lay abandoned drum, top,
train of cars, and games, to his son, who
shouted boom to a paper bird, aiming reck-
lessly and disdaining the trigger.
Nan gazed lovingly at Richie. ‘You see,
Dick, he wasn’t ungratefal. He just want-
ed a gun, poor little fellow.”’
“A atick would have done about as
well I"? laughed Richard. ‘‘Where is Mary
Dorothy ?”’
‘She is with Annie, playing with her old
rag doll and that red ball of Richie’s.”’
Dick meditated. ‘‘I’ll tell you,” be
said, ‘*what we’ll do. We’ll put the things
away and give them to the children next
year—il—they’re old enough.”
“I don’t know but what that’s a good
idea,”’ agreed Nan, thoughtfully. ‘‘Chil-
dren are so—so unreliable, aren’t they ? I$
would be economical, too.” Her glance
rested on the packages at the foot of the |’
tree. “‘Why, Dick, you haven't opened
your——"’
“By Jove,’ exclaimed Dick, ‘‘and you
haven't seen the— Say, Nan, let’s have
our own Christmas now! There’s the gong
for breakfast? ‘I'bere is just time.”
Nan tore off paper after paper until she
reached a tiny hox. Her eyes sparkled.
“It’s a beauty, Dick! Just what I want-
ed. But aren’t you afraid—wasn’t it a lit-
tle bit more than you could afford, dear ?"’
“*Look here, Nan, nathing’s too nice for
vou! This umbrella isadaisy! And Du-
mas! Ab, you knew what I wanted !”’
“Boom !”’ shouted Richie, fiercely, as
