Fairy Tale for the Children
It was a lttle time before Christ.
mas, and Judy dreamed that she was
up in Santa’s workshop.
There ghe gaw tables and tables and
tables with half-made toys upon them,
Sha saw huge barrels and packing
cases and toys belng taken off. She
!saw Santa’s huge pack which he wore
:upon his back on Christmas Eve as
the went to visit all the boys and girls
in the world.
She saw toys which were all finished
and were standing up by each other
in rows, which hadn’t been put away
for the great Christmas season yet,
There were Teddy Bears and woolly
Jambs, Ittle pink rag pigs and there
iwarc traing of cars and boats and air
planes,
There were games and balls and
tops. There were sailor boy suits,
There were whistles and all sorts of
toy animals, There were dolls all
ibeautifully dressed with china faces
and china bodies,
There were some with rag bodies
but china faces, and there were others
—oh, there were so many of all sorts
she simply couldn’t look at them all.
She felt dizzy looking at so many,
And she saw Santa Claus, his red coat
lying on a chalr nearby, working for
all he was worth, making toy after
toy, painting one, putting it together,
fixing it so it would be all right,
There he was, his white beard hang
ing way down on his chest and his
eyes—well, she had never seen such
eyes before,
They were laughing! Yes, actually
laughing. She saw those blue eyes of
hig twinkle and-—she saw them laugh,
Ob, how happy he looked. And yet
how bunsy he was. He no sooner fin
ished one toy than he made another,
Goodness! How quickly he worked.
Now he was making—what was it—
could it be?
Judy held her breath, This was al
most too exciting! |
Yes, he was actually making a doll
—the very sort she wanted—a nice
rag doll with a painted face, a doll to
hug and love,
Oh, how she would love that doll
Santa (Maus was making.
Then it seemed as though the shop

“Oh, 1 hope Santa Claus brings me
a rag doll.”
Now the Dream King had sent this
dream to Judy, and it was as real as
a dream can be.
But it was absolutely real that
Santa Claus was making a rag doll
and that that rag doll was going to be
found on Christmas morning In Judy’s
stocking.
For the Dream King had told Santa
Claus it was what she wanted and
that was why Santa Claus had smiled
80 when he had finished making the
doll—because he knew how the doll
was golng to please Judy, and how
dearly she would love it. *

Where there’s a will there’s a way.
Mrs. Devoe of Worcester county, Mas

(Prepared by the United States Department

Among the various practical designs
in rompers sultable for children of
three or four years old, there is none
more easlly made than the romper of
colored print shown in the illus
teation, It 18 cut with wide, short,
raglan sleeves which may be extend
ed to the wrist If preferred. The neck
is flat, outMned by a shaped band of
plain contrasting material, carried to
the bottom of the front opening,
Plaln material s also used to finish
the sleeves and pockets and to make
the loose leg bands into which the
rompers are slightly gathered at the
sldes.
White piping outlines the colored
bands and adds to the decoratlon,
Three large flat buttons, easily managed
by little fingers, are used for the front
fastening, while In the back two but
aut each side keep the drop seat

This romper may be made from any
ordinary romper pattern with raglan
sleeves, The burean of home econom

does not have patterns to distribute,
It will be noticed that the legs are
cut slightly higher on the sides to pre
vent them from slipping down over
the knees.

her kitchen more convenient after she
had talked with the home demonstra
tion agent about the improvements
needed. She realized that consider
able extra planning and work would
have to be done, especially as the sug
gested improvements would require an
expenditure of about $l5O. So Mrs.
Devoe concentrated on her own spe
cial source of income—her raspberry
patch. From the sale of her fruit she
earned enough to earry out her cher
ished plan. Most of the work she did
herself.
To economize space there is a fold
ing ironing board on a closet door,
with an electric plug for the iron con
veniently placed. A drop shelf near
by becomes a work or lunch table
when wanted, but it i§ out of the way
when access to the flour barrel or
pantry shelves is needed. Mrs. Devoe
put in a new sink, drainboard and
washtub on the other side of the
room, a cupboard for chira, and con
venient drawers for supplies and
linen. She has plenty of hot water
now because she put a paper packing
around the tank in the hot water
closet. Everything 4s painted whiteé.
It is by such improvements as these
that the farm woman is making her
work easier, brighter and more in
