Polly and the First Snow
T T’S Saturday!” was Polly‘s first thought
I as she awoke. “How glad I am.” Not
■*“ that she didn’t like to go to school, but
he was always glad when Saturday came be
iMiise it meant that she could play all day long.
Wrapping her soft woollv bathrobe around
her, she hurried to the window to see what sort
nf weather the day promised, it was a hit cloudy
and the ground v/as covered with a thin blanket
of snow, the first of the season. Polly could
hardly wait to dress and eat her breakfast, so
eager was she to get out of doors. Indeed, she
had hardly finished her dish of oatmeal when
she heard Jack Brown, the hov who lived next
loor, calling her.
As quick as could he she slipped on her coat
uid tam and hurried out to meet him. What
fun they had! They tried to build a fort, hut
there was not enough snow for that. Then they
threw snowballs at each other. Just then the
loetor who lived at the other side of Polly’a
house came slowly dowrj his walk. He waa a
ery dignified man, and Polly was always a
little afraid of him. She had a large snowball
In her hand and without pausing to think, '
threw it at Jack, who stood between her and
lie slowly moving doc^ir.
Horrors I The^snowball missed .hiek and hit
the doctor squarely on his new hat. knocking
it into a pool of slush and water.
“Who did that!” roared the doctor as he
rescued hi-s hat. “Who did that. 1 say? An
swer at once!” 'Both children were silent.
The doctor came toward them angrily.
“1 did it. Doctor Smith.” said .Tack sudden
ly. “If your hat is spoiled I'll give you all
the pennies in my bank to buy a new one.”
By this time Polly had found her tongue.
“Jack didn’t do it,” she cried, “I did. I meant
to hit him, but I made a mistake and hit you.”
“What's this! What’s this!” A smile
spread over the dootor’s face. “I never heard
of such a thing as two people throwing the
same snowball. My hat isn’t hurt very much.
But you two youngsters would better be care
ful not to get wet feet, for if you’re sick and I
come to see you, you don't know what nasty
tnedieine I might take it into my head to give
you."
