FRESH snow crunched un
der Dick Wright’s shoes
as he stomped into the waiting
room.
Old Peter was still there,
still minding his telegraph
key as he had when Dick was
a boy. But now it was Christ
mas; now Dick was home
from the city, a successful young
architect.
As he walked up to old Peter’s
grilled ticket window, Dick recalled
the last time he stood in this station.
Two and a half years ago, it was,
the day after Jean had left for New
York in search of a career.
“Just can’t stand Marysville,” she
had told him. “You’ll understand,
Dick, won’t you?”
He had forgotten as best he could.
Nothing in Marysville for him then,
either. There had been a quick de
cision, a closing of half-open doors,
a tearful good-by to his parents and
then—off to the city. It was odd
how a blow like that could give a
fellow determination. Today, just
30 months later, he was coming back
home with a career already carved
out.
Old Pete looked up from his sheaf
of train orders.
“Well, Richard!” he cried. “Glad
to see you, boy, and a Merry Christ
mas! Your folks know you’re corn
in’?”
“Merry Christmas to you, Pete!”
Dick answered. It was nice, at
that, to see a familiar face. “Mind
if I use your ’phone? I caught an
early train and Dad wasn’t expect
ing me until tonight.”
A few minutes later the old fam
ily car was carrying him home. His
Dad looked older, and a mite wor
“Heard from Jean, son?” he asked.
ried. Something was on his mind.
“Heard from Jean, son?” he final
ly asked.
“No, Pop,” he answered truthful
ly. The house loomed up ahead now.;
“Why do you ask?”
“Oh, just wonderin’, son, that’s
all. Forget it. There’s Mother wav
in’ at us up yonder!”
But Dick couldn’t forget it. Marys
ville and Jean were like ham and
eggs. He thought about her when he
stopped at the drugstore that night—
they used to drink sodas there.
Maybe Dick was looking for more
of those memories next morning
when he started out alone on skis
for Murray’s hill. They used to
play there in the winter, he and
Jean.
“Forget it, you imbecile!” he
snapped at himself. “That’s a closed
chapter in your life!”
It was a couple of hours later that
he saw her. Skiing down Murray’s
hill for the last time he rounded
Horseshoe bend to find Jean direct
ly in his path! There was a shriek,
a thud, and then four feet sticking
out of a snowdrift.
“Jean!” he cried, unstrapping his
skis and running to help her. “Are
you hurt?”
It was rather unromantic, per
-1 haps, pulling her out feet first. But
, she laughed at him and fell down
j again, pulling him after her.
j “You’re going to get your face
j washed for that, Mr. Wright,” she
cried.
He came up sputtering to find her
I suddenly serious.
“Dick dear,” she said, “I was
wrong. Mother wrote that you’d be
home for Christmas and —well, I
had to come too. It’s you and
Marysville that I want, not New
York. This morning when I saw
you going past our house, I some-
I how knew that I should go with you.
j Not just today, Dick, but always!”
| It was like ham and eggs, Dick
1 thought, only the next day was
{ Christmas —and Christmas meant
turkey!

Beginning of the New Year
Various dates were used in differ
ent countries, for the beginning of a
year, but America followed the Eng
lish custom of using the date of
most early Christian countries—
about the beginning of the ecclesi
astical year. The Gregorian calen
dar, establishing January 1 as the
beginning of the year, was adopt
ed by England and her colonies in
1 1752. '
