And had spent many blissful hours figuring out pres- ents for the family, at a nickel each. And if you hark back to childhood, you can recall what it means to save all of 20 cents. You do remember, don't you? Her father had brought home a package of dates, which were not to be eaten just then, but little daughter | wanted one. Father refused.

And then her father came into the jroom and said: “Come on, little | daughter, let’s go Christmas shopping. {I've been trying all your life to break | that stubborn streak that is going to | make you do foolish things some day— but now I quit.
