I1C KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD. T,
Homesickness, perhaps,
had brought him
back. Old Peter Johansen
buttoned his threadbare overcoat,
blew warm breath on
his rou?h hands, and jumped
tc the ground. There was no
railroad detective to grab him
because this was the day before
Christmas. All but the
homeless, like himself, seemed
busy prepui'infi for the I)uy of Days.
Forty years, I'e.or reflected, since
he last sv", foot in Clark City. It had
been a year after the big earthquake;
a year after all hell broke
loose, Killing his parents and sister
as they sat ai dinner in the little
house on Vine street.,
Peter remembered:. How he had
come home late thai evening; how
tne earth began quivering like a
beast possessed; how he had
/" r

searched like a madman through
the ruins oi that shock-wracked,
fire-swept bungalow. Then, as Clark
City began rebuilding, he had drifted
off in a daze to roam up and down
the earth?a ne'er-do-well, a hobo!
But always he remembered Linda,
dear little sister Linda. In 40 years
tier memory always came back
stronger than ever on Christmas
Eve, for it was then that they used
to climb Lookout Hill hand-in-hand
at dusk, watching the evening star
rise in the heavens.
That, perhaps, was why he was
back this Christmas Eve.
"Almost dusk now," he reflected,
trudging along Clark City's busy
thoroughfare. Christmas rrna-Hc ir%o_
lied him, for he was a hapless wanic-rer
with nQ place to go.
No place to go? Not Peter! Soon
lie found his way to the old-residential
district where Lookout Hill rose
like a sentinel.
"The same old hill," he.told himself.
"Little Linda! If you were only
Pore now to see your big brother!
No?thank Cod you're not here, for
four big brother is ashamed of himself!'"
At the crest Peter stood alone for
a long time, , watching the star appear
as it had since that first night
)ver J3othlehem. He didn't notice
the old lady until she spoke.
"Beautiful, that star, isn't it?"
Peter fumbled with his greaseitained
cop.
"Yes'm, it is. Especially from
Lookout Hill."
"Many years ago," she continued,
almost in a trance, "my little broth:r
and I used to watch that star
rise in the heavens each Christmas
Eve, until?" (she wiped a tear
iway)?"we were separated somelow
during the big earthquake. He
vas killed, they found out later.
"Each Christmas Eve ever since
I've come back here, just to remem>er
him. I hope he's happy up there
n Heaven."
Peter was staring at her, fairly
ready to shriek, for it was Linda!
tfo doubt about it, now!
He recognized the tilt of her nose,
inchanged by the years; the familar
ring of a voice that somehow
rnd failed to grow old. But he held
limself back, for Peter was
ishamed of himself.
She didn't notice him shuffle off
ifter awhile, for Linda was still
matching the star.
In the freight yards he found an
imply boxcar and bedded down unler
some straw in a corner. After
i while he felt the car move, and
lomehow he was glad.
"Yes, it was Linda," he sobbed
o himself, "but I just couldn't tell
ier. Thank God she's alive and
lappy. And Thank God she renembers
me on Christmas eve as
: was, not as I am."
After awhile he fell asleep.

Cakes Printed in Germany
A famous Christmas cake in Gernany
is Aachen Printen, from which
he English word "print" is derived.
!n the days before book-printing the
dea of imprint belonged to the bakng
business to express the making
if patterns in cakes. Many of these
lakes have figures representing the
lid gods Wotan and Thor.
Santa May Not Smoke Cigars
Santa Claus, perhaps, doesn't
imoke?or he would be better inormed
on the quality of cigars.
