zosky piled a cdpious bundle of furs
upon the counter of his little es
tablishment and presented a bill
for $312.00.
“It’s the remainder of your or

deliver it Wednesday. Here is the
receet, so soon as you hand over
the money.”
Reaching into his wallet, Izzy
withdrew an I.O.U. which read in
effect:
“Ten clays from date, I, Abe Ros

! “Dem what you got it there is
I minks,” said Izzy, g avcly. “i.-rh-g:
i me DO A-l prime marten skins, 1
| pay you. Odcrwise, my lawyer;
1 makes it a suit.”
i “That's what comes v/hea you.
[swindle it your own race!” storm
i ed Sammy Gobin, junior partner to J
| Abe, when, after much protest and ;
! browbeating by Attorney Mose j
Gottlieb, they were compelled to
I deliver 90 A-l marten skins at j
i $16.50 each, a clear profit to Izzy j
| of $1,143.
! It was Christmas eve. The streets ;
| were pulsating with an eddying j
| stream of late shoppers—those who j
j had waited for paydays before mak- j
ing their Christmas purchases, and 1
who took advantage of the last,
j hours to snatch up bargains.
■ Although he had spent months j
in the Ghetto, Izzy had few inti-1
mates. The stamp of his prior.
thraldom was too indelibly ini-.
printed upon his externals to allow
of his-mingling as an equai. Hence
| he felt very much alone as he stood
; observing the throng and mingled
; misery and enthusiasm.
A woman, holding the hand of a
boy of 10, who in turn towed along
two others, whose stubby legs re
tarded and hindered their progress,
rubbed against him. As she pass
ed he made a quick appraisal. The
boy’s toes protruded from his worn
shoes, and the little hand clinging
to his was blue with cold, while
the gaunt bodies showed unmit
igeable evidence of under nour
ishment. He had seen this many
times during the Red Terror, and
knew its purport.
Beneath her arm the mother en
deavored to hold intact a number
of small parcels. It was difficult—
the ragged shawl fluttered and
flapped in the brisk wind. A few
steps beyond where Izzy stood, a
small package slipped to the side
walk. In an instant he was upon
it. Drawing into a doorway, he
opened the paper sack and peered
in. It contained a pound or more
of taffy kisses, wrapped in paraf
fin paper.
Other eyes had seen the package
fall. They belonged to Jerry Ryan,
on plain clothes duty. Approach
ing Izzy, Ryan’s hand was raised
to clamp down upon the thief’s
shoulder, when it was rested by
something which gripped his at
tention. As each little piece of
candy was lifted from the sack,
its wrapper was replaced by one
of green. Possibly a dozen had
been transformed when Ryan
heard a commotion at Ills elbow’.
The distraut mother was searching
along the dark shadows of the tall
buildings.

‘ I must have dropped it about I
here,” .she said. “It was the candy, |
and I Lave 1:0 more money.”
The shlveung little tots fought j
bravely against tears, as they lift- ;
eel t> wan fm? i to that of their l
mother. I
“Here, mother, is this what you
are looking for?” asked Ryan,
ridging I y in the ribs and reach
ing for the parcel.
‘‘Vail, we Lie it up snug, so,” said
1zzy fishing a shoelace from his
ve t buUm holes and tying the
package securely.
As the mother retraced her steps
toward home, the Salvation Army
Santa, standing beside his Christ
mas pot, intoned:
“Sell all thy goods, and follow
me, thus sayeth the Lord.”
Ryan gripped Izzy by the hand.
Neither spoke.
As the little mother unwrapped
the candy and smoothed cut its
new covering, the baby lisped:
“Muvvcr, there is a Santa Claus,
isn't there?”
“Yes, dear; a great big-hearted
Santa Claus.”
Abe Rosnik would have vehem
ently denied the imputation, but
Izzy Lubinovich had confirmed it
to his satisfaction with a dozen
twenty-dollar bills.
