10 THE CHI IS'IMAS MYSTERY Gnu. , in Terry v a? coming for Cbr i f t rua • j i 'Th e fact t oa t he G;« Aunt Jane ovory yoar better then the last. And thl yuJi’ would be the best of all; he was sure of It, Such ran the thoughts of Tom Wallace on tho evening of December 22 He had purchased most of the presents he was planning to give The only person that remained was his father, Mr Wallace had said he wanted a gun to use against the woodchucks that ravaged thd meadows. But, of course, buying a thing such as a gun would be impossible for Tom, He would just have to settle for a pair of slippers. He was planning to give Terry a B.B. gun. He wondered idly as he was getting ready for bed just what Terry was getting for him. Last year it had been an electric train. He wondered where Terry got all his money. Probably from his mother. Tom had to earn all of his. Thirteen is an un lucky age, he thought as he drifted off to sleep, Good morning. Tommy, sAid his mother when he entered the kitchen on the following mor- ning.

Hello, Terry, she ans wered, Put your suitcases in Tommy's room and then come back here.

Terry asked, standing by the closet door. Yes, by the way, do you have all your Christmas pre- sents? What do you think I have in this suitcase? Well, Tom answered, 1 just hone there is nothing breakable! May I see them? No! Yours is in there. Do you havo all of yours? ,:T still have to get a pair of slippers for my father.
