• may have grown into the adult stage
and be gone.
Michael going on two , . was
all eyes for Santa Claus up in the toy
department at Tim Murphy's General
Store. He had to climb .up in the old
fellows, lap and pluck at his whiskers
and although his language is just gib-
berish, he seemed to make it known
that there were many things he was
expecting in his stocking on Christmas
morning. He tried to get his hands
on all the toys and at one point es-
caped me long enough to pull a switch
that sent a spiral of sparks into the
air and a flock of electric trains dash-
ing around like mad,
I turned to Patricia Ann and said
"Do you want to go up and speak to
Santa Slaus?" She just withered me
with a look and said "Daddy, really
now," Mrs, Phil, who seems to have
more comprehension of such things
looked at me is amazement. "Phil",
:she said, "After all Patricia is getting,
a little old for,that dont you think?"
I just gave up. Later we went
through the teddy bears and doll sec-
, tion and while the young man went
through the exhibit in great glee, Pat-
:ricia Ann didn't seem to pay much at-
tention, I found her later browsing
through the book section. The whole
thing was too much for my curiosity,
so I asked her, "Patricia, just what do
you want for your stocking on Christ-
mas Day?"
The idea of a stocking amused her
but she only smiled and said "I would
like a cohmlete set of the Books of
Knowledge Daddy and a wrist watch.
Most of the other girls are getting
watches for Christmas this year or else
'for their birthdays in. the New Year."
I gave up. A wrist watch at nine
years of age seemed a bit too much.
On the other hand this sophistication
may wear off when the actual night of
Christmas Eve comes • along. We'll
just have to wait and see.
