[Exit Aunt. Enter Mother with two little Grays.
Mother. Come right here, dears, behind this curtain. You won't have to wait long. And when I say "Mistletoe!" run out. I'll go and find Dick and Dot.
[Exit.
[Enter Dick and Dot and place two low
chairs by the fireplace. Both put their
heads into the chimney.
Dick and Dot. Are you all right?
Jim. Yes, if we don't have to stay too long.
Polly. It's very nice and warm here.
[Enter Father, Mother, Aunt, and Mary
and John, who stand by the door.
Father. Children, what are you doing? [Children come out confused.]
Mother. Were you looking for Santa Claus?
Aunt. Couldn't you wait for him?
