-
-SCENE—_Sitting room_
-
-
-(_For telephone use box ten by fifteen inches or larger. Fix it to an
-upright that can be moved out on the platform. Have one end fixed like
-trap door. Tie skates to muff about one foot apart. Shove muff in box
-first and then skates. Put electric or bicycle bell on box. Run heavy
-cord to the window for telephone wire. Have mouthpiece on box, and
-have box high enough so that the speaker must stand on a chair. Have a
-receiver or an imitation quite a way from the box—perhaps six or seven
-feet. Do not hurry._)
-
-_Esther_ (_seated in small rocker_). This is Christmas Eve, Mabel, and
-I suppose that Santa Claus has his pack all made up, and is off with
-his reindeer to visit all the good little boys and girls all over the
-world. I do hope he will be sure and come to (_name your own town or
-city_), because I want something very much this year. Just think, last
-Christmas I laid awake most all night to see him, but I didn’t see him
-at all. I don’t know when he got in the house or how he got out, but he
-just fooled me, that’s what he did.
-
-_Mabel._ No doubt he’s started on his journey by this time. I think he
-must ride like the wind to get all over the world in a night. Why it
-took all night and a day for us to go to Aunt Ella’s last Thanksgiving
-time, and that’s not so far as around the world. But I would like to
-see Santa this year so I could tell him what I want. They say if Santa
-Claus knows what you want he will almost always bring it to you.
-
-_Esther._ Yes, I know he will, because Maggie Brown wrote to him last
-year and told him that she wanted a pony and a cart and he brought it
-to her.
-
-_Mabel._ And Tommy Carter wrote to him, too, and told him that he
-wanted a bicycle and he got it, too. I guess Santa is a nice old man.
-
-_Esther._ And Mrs. Santa must be a nice old lady, too, or she wouldn’t
-dress all those nice dolls for Mr. Santa Claus.
-
-_Mabel._ It’s too bad that we did not write to him last week, and then
-he surely would have gotten our letter.
-
-_Esther_ (_rising up and putting doll in the chair_). Mabel, why not
-telephone to him? Papa has a long distance telephone, and I talked away
-down to New York through it once, and I guess if cousin Mary could hear
-me in New York, Santa Claus ought to hear me in Santa Claus Land.
-
-_Mabel._ Wasn’t Papa with you when you talked that time, Esther?
-
-_Esther._ Yes, but I remember just how I did it. You just ring the
-bell, and talk in the box, and listen for the answer. Let’s try it,
-anyway.
-
-_Mabel._ All right, we will, but he may not be at home. He must start
-early to travel so far.
-
-_Esther._ I will ask Mrs. Santa Claus anyway. Now let’s do it quick,
-before any one comes in.
-
-_Mabel_ (_getting a chair for Esther to stand on_). Here Esther, you
-must stand upon this chair. Now be careful not to fall off.
-
-_Esther_ (_gets upon chair_). Now you take the receiver and stand over
-there (_points_) and listen to what she says (_Esther rings._)
-
-_Mabel._ Some one is there, Esther. Ask them to give you Santa Claus
-Land.
-
-_Esther._ Hello, hello! Give me Santa Claus Land, please.
-
-_Mabel._ She says that this is Santa Claus Land.
-
-_Esther._ Hello! Is this Mrs. Santa Claus?
-
-_Mabel._ She says “yes.” Ask her if Mr. Santa Claus is at home.
-
-_Esther._ Mrs. Santa Claus, Mrs. Santa Claus, is Mr. Santa Claus at
-home?
-
-_Mabel._ She says “no,” he isn’t. He has gone on a journey to visit all
-the good boys and girls.
-
-_Esther._ Hello, hello, Mrs. Santa Claus. Does Mr. Santa Claus only
-make one trip on Christmas Eve?
-
-_Mabel._ She says “yes,” that is all he makes. Ask her to send some one
-after him to catch him, because we want something very special.
-
-_Esther._ Mrs. Santa Claus. (_Both wait a moment._)
-
-_Mabel._ She can’t be at the phone, Esther, ring her up again.
-
-_Esther_ (_rings again_). Hello, Mrs. Santa Claus, will you please send
-some one after Mr. Santa Claus, to tell him that we want something
-special?
-
-_Mabel_ (_waits a moment_). She’s not there yet, Esther. Ring her up
-again. (_Esther rings quite hard._) Now she is there, and she wants to
-know why we bother her so on Christmas Eve.
-
-_Esther._ Mrs. Santa, please send some one after Mr. Santa, and tell
-him that we are two good little girls, and we want a muff and a pair
-of skates, and some candy canes as long as your arm. Now don’t forget,
-Mrs. Santa—a muff, and skates, and candy canes as long as myself.
-
-_Mabel._ She says that Santa is too far away, and nobody could catch
-him now. And she says that we must not bother her any more as she is
-busy making her Christmas pies.
-
-_Esther_ (_to Mabel_). But I want my candy cane (_rings several times_).
-
-_Mabel_ (_frightened_). Oh, Esther, Mrs. Santy will be awfully angry
-with us. Let’s go away.
-
-_Esther_ (_getting impatient_). Does she answer the ring?
-
-_Mabel._ No. (_Esther rings harder than before._) Now she is there and
-she wants to know if it is the same two little girls.
-
-_Esther_ (_into the phone_). Yes, it’s Mabel and me, and we want Santa
-Claus to bring us some skates, and a muff and candy canes as long as a
-fishing-pole.
-
-_Mabel._ She says that we must be good or Santa won’t come to (_name
-your town_) tonight at all. We bother her a lot, she says.
-
-_Esther_ (_into the phone_). Mrs. Santa—Mrs. Santa—(_no answer._)
-
-_Mabel._ She has gone away again, Esther. Let’s not bother her any more
-or she may send some one after Santa to tell on us.
-
-_Esther._ I want to know if Santa is coming to (_your town_) tonight,
-anyway (_rings long and several times_).
-
-_Mabel_ (_frightened_). I guess she is angry with us, Esther. Please do
-let’s stop now. Let’s not ring any more, because I don’t care for the
-skates, anyway.
-
-_Esther_ (_to Mabel_). Isn’t she there yet?
-
-_Mabel._ No—I guess not. (_Esther rings and rings._) Oh, Oh, Esther do
-stop!
-
-_Esther._ Now—is—she—there?
-
-_Mabel._ Yes, and she wants papa to take those naughty girls away from
-the “phone,” or Santa won’t come to (_your town_) tonight. Please do
-stop ringing, Esther. (_Listens._) Oh, Esther, I think I hear papa
-coming, and he will be angry, too.
-
-_Esther._ No, papa won’t be angry, he would like to have us get our
-muff and skates. (_Ring, rings and rings._)
-
-_Mabel_ (_during the ringing_). Oh, Esther, oh, Esther! She says to
-stop that ringing!!
-
-_Esther_ (_stamping her foot, keeps on ringing_). I’m mad with her,
-Mabel (_then into the phone_). Mrs. Santa—Mrs. Santa—do you hear, Mrs.
-Santa? Do—you—hear—Mrs. Santa? We want our muff, and our skates, and
-the candy canes as big as a house. Do—you—hear, Mrs. Santa? Mrs. Santa!
-I want my muff and skates. (_Rings while talking._) I am mad with you,
-Mrs. Santa. I want my muff. (_Here pull the trap and the skates drop
-out, pulling the muff also. Esther jumps down from the chair, Mabel
-drops the receiver. They seize the skates and muff and say, as they
-hold them up_): We’ve got them. We’ve got them, the skates and muff,
-the skates and muff!

-CHRISTMAS PLAYS
-
-
-  =(+) OLA: OR A CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR MOTHER.= In this
-      little 15-minute play the Christmas present the three
-      children of the “Good” family find for mother is
-      none other than “Ola,” a street waif who comes in
-      to get warm while mother is out shopping. Alta, the
-      only girl in the family, has been wishing she had a
-      sister to share the trials which two (2) wideawake
-      brothers bring to her, so she has a double motive in
-      wanting to hide Ola away when mother comes and then
-      bring her out and present her as a Christmas present
-      to mother. Only five characters, 2 boys, 2 girls, and
-      1 woman, required. No special costumes needed, and
-      the one home scene is simple to provide. Five copies
-      required. Price 30 cts., postpaid.
-
-  =(+) MISCHIEVOUS ESTHER AT GRANDMOTHER’S.= It was all
-      Grandmother’s fault. Having so many nice things
-      hidden about the house at Christmastime should not be
-      permitted, when the grandchildren are to be left in
-      the house alone while grandmother goes out for the
-      afternoon. Of course the boys were not mischievous,
-      not even curious, but with Esther it was different,
-      for she was a girl. She was a very sweet one though,
-      especially when the molasses she got into was all
-      over her apron. It was Christmastime and everything
-      ends right during this happy season, so putting the
-      soiled apron into the box from which she took the
-      kitten and putting the kitten into the wash basin
-      intended for the apron was only a slight mixup, from
-      which mischievous Esther would soon clear herself.
-      Three characters, 1 girl and 2 boys, 12 years of age,
-      are employed. A simple sitting-room scene; no special
-      costumes; time about 15 minutes. 3 copies only
-      required. Price 25 cts., postpaid.
-
-  =TELEPHONING TO SANTA CLAUS.= A Christmas dialogue for
-      two (2) girls, ten (10) or twelve (12) years of age,
-      who conceive the idea of using the telephone to tell
-      Santa Claus what they most want, and suffer no great
-      surprise when the very things asked for reach them
-      through the “phone.” A simple sitting-room scene in
-      which a make-believe “phone” is installed furnishes
-      the setting. Time of rendition about 10 minutes.
-      Price 25 cts., postpaid.
-
-  =(+) WHAT CHRISTMAS DID FOR JERUSHA GRUMBLE.=
-      Self-confessedly, she was only 58, but for years
-      she had acted like sixty, that is to say,—oh well,
-      in nature she had been true to her name, and when
-      one’s nature suggests a name like hers, it’s quite
-      a job to change it. She couldn’t forget that, many
-      years before, she had expected to change her name,
-      but, oh well, it wasn’t her fault, and Christmas
-      came along and helped her to cover up the past and
-      open a new future for her. Of course it couldn’t
-      change her name, but this little play tells how
-      very effectively it did change her nature, and then
-      the contrast between name and nature was a charm in
-      the hitherto repulsive life. It’s a pretty story,
-      made into a pleasing Christmas play. There are five
-      characters, all girls; two scenes, easily arranged.
-      Quite ordinary costumes are used and only 5 copies of
-      the book required. Time about 30 minutes. Price 30
-      cts., postpaid.
-
-  =(+) WANTED—CHRISTMAS SPIRIT.= In Prolog, Three Scenes
-      and Epilog. By Hester L. Hopkins. 22 females and
-      13 male characters in the entire play, but it can
-      be given with 8 females and 7 males by having some
-      assume different characters in various scenes. Time
-      of rendition, 30 to 40 minutes. If only 15 people
-      take part, 12 copies will be required. Price 30 cents
-      per copy, postpaid.
-
-  =(+) CHRISTMAS CHEER.= A play in two acts for six
-      females. Time of rendition about 20 minutes.
-
-      Four young ladies are the members of a Sunday School
-      class whose teacher has asked that each member of the
-      class shall do something to bring “Christmas Cheer”
-      to someone who would not otherwise be remembered.
-      Each of the girls, unbeknown to the other members of
-      the class, decides to make the “Jones Family” the
-      object of her Christmas visit.
-
-      It turns out to be quite a “Surprise party.” While
-      one of the girls prepares the Christmas pie, the
-      others of the class provide a pleasant entertainment.
-      When the Christmas pie is cut, Caroline and Amanda
-      find that it is filled with the presents which the
-      class brought. Simple setting and costumes. 6 copies
-      required. Price 25 cents. Postpaid.
-
-    _If the number of copies specified as “REQUIRED” is
-    ordered at one time, a discount of 33⅓ per cent will be
-    allowed from list price on all the above._

-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org

-
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

-<p>(<i>For telephone use box ten by fifteen inches or larger. Fix it
-to an upright that can be moved out on the platform. Have one
-end fixed like trap door. Tie skates to muff about one foot
-apart. Shove muff in box first and then skates. Put electric or
-bicycle bell on box. Run heavy cord to the window for telephone
-wire. Have mouthpiece on box, and have box high
-enough so that the speaker must stand on a chair. Have a receiver
-or an imitation quite a way from the box—perhaps six or
-seven feet. Do not hurry.</i>)</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther</i> (<i>seated in small rocker</i>). This is Christmas Eve, Mabel,
-and I suppose that Santa Claus has his pack all made up, and
-is off with his reindeer to visit all the good little boys and girls
-all over the world. I do hope he will be sure and come to
-(<i>name your own town or city</i>), because I want something very
-much this year. Just think, last Christmas I laid awake most all
-night to see him, but I didn’t see him at all. I don’t know when
-he got in the house or how he got out, but he just fooled me,
-that’s what he did.</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> No doubt he’s started on his journey by this time. I
-think he must ride like the wind to get all over the world in a
-night. Why it took all night and a day for us to go to Aunt
-Ella’s last Thanksgiving time, and that’s not so far as around
-the world. But I would like to see Santa this year so I could
-tell him what I want. They say if Santa Claus knows what you
-want he will almost always bring it to you.</p>
-
-<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_4" id="Page_4">[4]</a></span></p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> Yes, I know he will, because Maggie Brown wrote to
-him last year and told him that she wanted a pony and a cart
-and he brought it to her.</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> And Tommy Carter wrote to him, too, and told him
-that he wanted a bicycle and he got it, too. I guess Santa is a
-nice old man.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> And Mrs. Santa must be a nice old lady, too, or she
-wouldn’t dress all those nice dolls for Mr. Santa Claus.</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> It’s too bad that we did not write to him last week,
-and then he surely would have gotten our letter.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther</i> (<i>rising up and putting doll in the chair</i>). Mabel, why
-not telephone to him? Papa has a long distance telephone, and
-I talked away down to New York through it once, and I guess
-if cousin Mary could hear me in New York, Santa Claus ought
-to hear me in Santa Claus Land.</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> Wasn’t Papa with you when you talked that time,
-Esther?</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> Yes, but I remember just how I did it. You just ring
-the bell, and talk in the box, and listen for the answer. Let’s
-try it, anyway.</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> All right, we will, but he may not be at home. He must
-start early to travel so far.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> I will ask Mrs. Santa Claus anyway. Now let’s do it
-quick, before any one comes in.</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel</i> (<i>getting a chair for Esther to stand on</i>). Here Esther,
-you must stand upon this chair. Now be careful not to fall off.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther</i> (<i>gets upon chair</i>). Now you take the receiver and stand
-over there (<i>points</i>) and listen to what she says (<i>Esther rings.</i>)</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> Some one is there, Esther. Ask them to give you Santa
-Claus Land.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> Hello, hello! Give me Santa Claus Land, please.</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> She says that this is Santa Claus Land.</p>
-
-<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_5" id="Page_5">[5]</a></span></p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> Hello! Is this Mrs. Santa Claus?</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> She says “yes.” Ask her if Mr. Santa Claus is at home.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> Mrs. Santa Claus, Mrs. Santa Claus, is Mr. Santa
-Claus at home?</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> She says “no,” he isn’t. He has gone on a journey to
-visit all the good boys and girls.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> Hello, hello, Mrs. Santa Claus. Does Mr. Santa Claus
-only make one trip on Christmas Eve?</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> She says “yes,” that is all he makes. Ask her to send
-some one after him to catch him, because we want something
-very special.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> Mrs. Santa Claus. (<i>Both wait a moment.</i>)</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> She can’t be at the phone, Esther, ring her up again.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther</i> (<i>rings again</i>). Hello, Mrs. Santa Claus, will you please
-send some one after Mr. Santa Claus, to tell him that we want
-something special?</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel</i> (<i>waits a moment</i>). She’s not there yet, Esther. Ring
-her up again. (<i>Esther rings quite hard.</i>) Now she is there,
-and she wants to know why we bother her so on Christmas Eve.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> Mrs. Santa, please send some one after Mr. Santa, and
-tell him that we are two good little girls, and we want a muff
-and a pair of skates, and some candy canes as long as your
-arm. Now don’t forget, Mrs. Santa—a muff, and skates, and
-candy canes as long as myself.</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> She says that Santa is too far away, and nobody could
-catch him now. And she says that we must not bother her any
-more as she is busy making her Christmas pies.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther</i> (<i>to Mabel</i>). But I want my candy cane (<i>rings several
-times</i>).</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel</i> (<i>frightened</i>). Oh, Esther, Mrs. Santy will be awfully
-angry with us. Let’s go away.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther</i> (<i>getting impatient</i>). Does she answer the ring?</p>
-
-<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_6" id="Page_6">[6]</a></span></p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> No. (<i>Esther rings harder than before.</i>) Now she is
-there and she wants to know if it is the same two little girls.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther</i> (<i>into the phone</i>). Yes, it’s Mabel and me, and we want
-Santa Claus to bring us some skates, and a muff and candy canes
-as long as a fishing-pole.</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> She says that we must be good or Santa won’t come to
-(<i>name your town</i>) tonight at all. We bother her a lot, she says.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther</i> (<i>into the phone</i>). Mrs. Santa—Mrs. Santa—(<i>no answer.</i>)</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> She has gone away again, Esther. Let’s not bother her
-any more or she may send some one after Santa to tell on us.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> I want to know if Santa is coming to (<i>your town</i>) tonight,
-anyway (<i>rings long and several times</i>).</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel</i> (<i>frightened</i>). I guess she is angry with us, Esther.
-Please do let’s stop now. Let’s not ring any more, because I
-don’t care for the skates, anyway.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther</i> (<i>to Mabel</i>). Isn’t she there yet?</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> No—I guess not. (<i>Esther rings and rings.</i>) Oh, Oh,
-Esther do stop!</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> Now—is—she—there?</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel.</i> Yes, and she wants papa to take those naughty girls
-away from the “phone,” or Santa won’t come to (<i>your town</i>)
-tonight. Please do stop ringing, Esther. (<i>Listens.</i>) Oh,
-Esther, I think I hear papa coming, and he will be angry, too.</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther.</i> No, papa won’t be angry, he would like to have us get
-our muff and skates. (<i>Ring, rings and rings.</i>)</p>
-
-<p><i>Mabel</i> (<i>during the ringing</i>). Oh, Esther, oh, Esther! She says
-to stop that ringing!!</p>
-
-<p><i>Esther</i> (<i>stamping her foot, keeps on ringing</i>). I’m mad with
-her, Mabel (<i>then into the phone</i>). Mrs. Santa—Mrs. Santa—do
-you hear, Mrs. Santa? Do—you—hear—Mrs. Santa? We want
-our muff, and our skates, and the candy canes as big as a house.
-Do—you—hear, Mrs. Santa? Mrs. Santa! I want my muff<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_7" id="Page_7">[7]</a></span>
-and skates. (<i>Rings while talking.</i>) I am mad with you, Mrs.
-Santa. I want my muff. (<i>Here pull the trap and the skates
-drop out, pulling the muff also. Esther jumps down from the
-chair, Mabel drops the receiver. They seize the skates and muff
-and say, as they hold them up</i>): We’ve got them. We’ve got
-them, the skates and muff, the skates and muff!</p>

-<p><b>(+) OLA: OR A CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR MOTHER.</b> In this
-little 15-minute play the Christmas present the three children
-of the “Good” family find for mother is none other than “Ola,”
-a street waif who comes in to get warm while mother is out
-shopping. Alta, the only girl in the family, has been wishing
-she had a sister to share the trials which two (2) wideawake
-brothers bring to her, so she has a double motive in wanting
-to hide Ola away when mother comes and then bring her out
-and present her as a Christmas present to mother. Only five
-characters, 2 boys, 2 girls, and 1 woman, required. No special
-costumes needed, and the one home scene is simple to provide.
-Five copies required. Price 30 cts., postpaid.</p>
-
-<p><b>(+) MISCHIEVOUS ESTHER AT GRANDMOTHER’S.</b> It was all
-Grandmother’s fault. Having so many nice things hidden
-about the house at Christmastime should not be permitted,
-when the grandchildren are to be left in the house alone
-while grandmother goes out for the afternoon. Of course the
-boys were not mischievous, not even curious, but with Esther
-it was different, for she was a girl. She was a very sweet one
-though, especially when the molasses she got into was all over
-her apron. It was Christmastime and everything ends right
-during this happy season, so putting the soiled apron into the
-box from which she took the kitten and putting the kitten into
-the wash basin intended for the apron was only a slight mixup,
-from which mischievous Esther would soon clear herself.
-Three characters, 1 girl and 2 boys, 12 years of age, are employed.
-A simple sitting-room scene; no special costumes; time
-about 15 minutes. 3 copies only required. Price 25 cts., postpaid.</p>
-
-<p><b>TELEPHONING TO SANTA CLAUS.</b> A Christmas dialogue
-for two (2) girls, ten (10) or twelve (12) years of age, who
-conceive the idea of using the telephone to tell Santa Claus
-what they most want, and suffer no great surprise when the
-very things asked for reach them through the “phone.” A
-simple sitting-room scene in which a make-believe “phone” is
-installed furnishes the setting. Time of rendition about 10
-minutes. Price 25 cts., postpaid.</p>
-
-<p><b>(+) WHAT CHRISTMAS DID FOR JERUSHA GRUMBLE.</b> Self-confessedly,
-she was only 58, but for years she had acted like
-sixty, that is to say,—oh well, in nature she had been true to
-her name, and when one’s nature suggests a name like hers,
-it’s quite a job to change it. She couldn’t forget that, many
-years before, she had expected to change her name, but, oh
-well, it wasn’t her fault, and Christmas came along and helped
-her to cover up the past and open a new future for her. Of
-course it couldn’t change her name, but this little play tells
-how very effectively it did change her nature, and then the contrast
-between name and nature was a charm in the hitherto
-repulsive life. It’s a pretty story, made into a pleasing Christmas
-play. There are five characters, all girls; two scenes,
-easily arranged. Quite ordinary costumes are used and only
-5 copies of the book required. Time about 30 minutes. Price
-30 cts., postpaid.</p>
-
-<p><b>(+) WANTED—CHRISTMAS SPIRIT.</b> In Prolog, Three Scenes and
-Epilog. By Hester L. Hopkins. 22 females and 13 male characters in
-the entire play, but it can be given with 8 females and 7 males by
-having some assume different characters in various scenes. Time
-of rendition, 30 to 40 minutes. If only 15 people take part, 12 copies
-will be required. Price 30 cents per copy, postpaid.</p>
-
-<p><b>(+) CHRISTMAS CHEER.</b> A play in two acts for six females. Time of
-rendition about 20 minutes.<br />
-
-Four young ladies are the members of a Sunday School class
-whose teacher has asked that each member of the class shall do
-something to bring “Christmas Cheer” to someone who would not
-otherwise be remembered. Each of the girls, unbeknown to the
-other members of the class, decides to make the “Jones Family”
-the object of her Christmas visit.<br />
-
-It turns out to be quite a “Surprise party.” While one of the
-girls prepares the Christmas pie, the others of the class provide a
-pleasant entertainment. When the Christmas pie is cut, Caroline
-and Amanda find that it is filled with the presents which the class
-brought. Simple setting and costumes. 6 copies required. Price 25
-cents. Postpaid.</p></div>

-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org
-
-
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
-Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
-number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary

-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
