“I've been thinking,” Peggy went
on, ‘how wonderful it would be to
bring something thrilling — some-
thing unforgettable—into someone's
life. I don’t mean like helping with
the baskets and the entertainments
at the church; we’ve always done
that; but a sort of special some-
thing, for one particular person.”
For a minute youthful voices sur-
The gay little
clock on the dresser made audible
sound. Suddenly Peggy jumped to

valid for 10 years—shut in from the
world except for a few friends who
run in every now and then.”
“But what can we do for her? We
do visit her occasionally, and have
always taken her a little Christmas
gift. You know she’s much too proud
to accept charity.”
“Who's talking of charity? What I |

But their real happiness came on
Christmas eve when they stood by
Sara Werby’s bed and saw the radi-
ance upon her face. Stacks of let-
ters, cards, and packages were piled
everywhere, with postmarks from
almost every state in the Union.
“It’s the most thrilling thing that
ever happened in my life,” Sara
told them. “I never knew there
were so many wonderful people in
the world. It will take me weeks
and weeks to answer them all. but
it’s going to be loads of fun.” Her
brown eyes sparkled like a girl's.
