She is tall as a lady and after midnight she can talk of grown-up affairs. Santa waits for midnight. Chapter Four Santa’s Visitor ANTA had dozed off by the time it was midnight. His | long, carved ivory pipe lay on the hearth by his feet. There was no light but the pink-red | glow from the fireplace. Shad- ows danced about the walls as the flames in the fire reached up and fell back. In the far cor- ner a great clock ticked. Then the :himes began to strike | twelve. “One — two — three — ” Santa started up. “Now what— | where—Oh, yes. I'm waiting to| see the new doll.” He peered through the shadows to the foot‘ of the huge Christmas tree that | stands in the middle of the Toy- shop. | There he saw a light shadow | begin to move. It came toward | him. It was the new doll, walk- ing and smiling. She said. “You see, now midnight is here, and the world sleeps. I can help you “My soul,” said Santa rubbing | his eyes. He felt as though he must do something, so he bowed, | and pulled up a tall chair for the She thanked him and sat “My soul!” said Santa to him- | self as he sat down. The two| looked at each other, but the doll | said nothing. Finally Santa said, “Well, what shall we talk about?” “As you say, Sire. I am made | to be a companion,” said the doll. | The Doll Talks “That’s so,” said Santa. “Well, I'll tell you what’s worrying me. Year after year I keep working | away to make presents for chil- dren. But it seems to me there are times when people down in the world all look so unhappy. Even the children. My gifts seem | to do no good, What would you suggest?” The doll stared into the fire. “You know I am new and know very little. But today I watched and it seems to me that people WATCH FOR DATES in THE EMPIRE when the at the Capitol Theatre, Ly lere over the HIE came and dolls and fairies smile easily over little things. Not over big things. Is there no way, in the world of which you speak, to give people little pleasures?” Santa tugged at his beard and thought. Then he smiled: “You are right. It never oc- curred to me before. But the lead- ers of men are all so buey trying to secure great riches that their | people are unhappy. It's wrong. I just remember a little village I loved long ago. Each night at sun- set the people met on the lawn in front of the church and danced until the moon came up. That dancing was a little pleasure.” “What has become of it?” asked the doll. “Oh, one man stronger than the rest laid out great vineyards on the hills and promised the villagerssriches if they worked hard im the vineyards. | have dene for centurics. But they work 50 hard they are too tired to dance, They go to bed with worry and toss all night and get up just as tired.

It was a dancing melody that rose |and fell, ran fast, and then fell |Tow. The doll's eyes brightened and she walked to the windows and threw théem'open. There over the hills came a graceful young man, dancing as he played. It was the son of Lightning. TOMORROW: The son of Lightning challenges Santa.
