Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Fairy of the Snows On a Monday morning in January I was sitting at my desk in the school-office, steeling myself to deal with those little girls of the school who had not been present at the Sunday Mass. It was a gloomy day and a cold. Outside a goodly number of the Cincinnati street-cleaning department with shovels and wagons were busy carting away the heavy snowfall of the previous Saturday. Presently there was a timid knock. "Come in." Enters a little girl of seven in sore distress. "Well, Sarah, what is the matter?" "Father, please, I didn´t go to Mass." "I know that. Why?" "Please, Father, my shoes were at the shoemaker´s, and he didn´t have them ready till this morning. He was too busy all day Saturday to sole them." I knew that Sarah was one of seven children; that the father earned thirteen dollars a week; and that the poor mother had more than she could do to make ends meet. "Very good, Sarah," I said.
