THE"LAKELAND AUTOMOBILE AND SUPPLY CU. LAKELAND,FLA. | ¥ e 8 5vE, oW HEY called her the Choir * Sister, be- cause she was the daughter of the Choir Mother. Chil- dren have mothers to mend their clothes and see that their faces and hands are clean be- fore they march into church. The Choir Mother was the wife of the janitor of the church where the | choir sang, and 8o | kind was she that all the boys loved | her. | It was easy to like the Choir Sister, | too, because she played ball with the | boys before rehearsals. And those | nights when the Choir Master let them invite their frienls in for games | she was the girl most of them wanted ' for a partner. So anyone can see why the boys were blue when Ricky Jackson, her brother, came into the choir room | Christmas eve and said: “Mil” (short for Mildred, her real name) “isn’t going to have any Christ- mas!” | The boys stopped right there, some | with their choir clothes only half on. If they didn’t find out right away what | was the matter with the Chgir Sister, % | the Christmas eve service would have | to go without their ginging. %! So Ricky told how she had come 3 | down that morning with a funny tired feeling, and sniffling and hot cheeks, &% and had to stay in bed, and how she | cried when she thought of the tree | she was going to miss. You can see why that Christmas eve service was not as happy as it should have been for these boys. Af- terward, when the tree was lighted with the starlike candles and the Sun- day school room was filled with boys | and girls opening their presents, each ! choir boy was thinking of the Choir i | Sister, lying there at home, wishing ¢ | she could be with them, | ‘f" the boys sang the Christmas hymns « | better than ever. But the people did 5 | not know that just before the boys « | marched in the Choir Master had told “| them a plan by which the Choir Sis- & | ter would have a Christmas she would ‘"1 never forget. . <| At evening the janitor's doorbell & | rang. The Choir Mother opened it, < | and in came the Choir Master and a & [ 1ot of boys with red cheeks and smil- | ing faces. Back of the others four & | of the biggest boys dragged through | the door a small Christmas tree. | They set the tree up in the parlor. | Everyone was still, “for they didn’t & | want the Choir Sister to know any- & | thing about it till it was all ready. | Soon the candles were in place, and ;| the trimmings, and they lit the can- #| dles, and each boy placed a package | under the tree, and then a wonderful thing happened! The door opened and the Choir Mother and the Choir Master walked in, carrying between them a litle | stretcher, and upon that lay the Choir Sister. You should have seen her face! You | could almost see the light of the can. dles sparkling in it, so happy was she! The boys held their breath, won- dering what she would say. Her lit- tle cheeks glowed as she sat up straight and held her arms out toward the tree. And her eyes spark- Jled as she cried: “Oh! my Christ- mas tree!” Then she turned to the boys, and sald: “Oh! My Dear g Choir Brothers!” =) . Then she cried 3 » a little, just because mfl& she was happy, and some of the boys snifiled a bit, just because she was orying. Then there was all the jolly fun that goes with a tree. But soon they took her away. She was so0 tired that she fell asleep right after they put her back in bed. She dreamed that she saw a flock of sheep with their shepherds on a great plain. Suddenly there was a great light from above and she seemed to hear angels singing. She awoke. The singing did not stop. She arose and opened the win- dow. There, in the moonlight under her window stood her Choir Brothers with lighted candles, like the Christmas carol singers of Old England. They were singing this hymn: “Hark! the Herald Angels sing.” When the verse was finished the Choir Sister leaned out and called down to them: z God a whole lot more. A merry Christmas to you all!” “And to you!” they echoed. As the Choir Sister crept back to bed she heard the voices of the boys die away in the distance. Then & chime of bells somewhere out in the great snow-white world rang out the very hymn the boys had been singing | and the Choir Sister fell asleep. A Christmas Motto.
