Jim. Not if I don't want to. I did go out last Christmas, but nobody much came along. I suppose they stayed at home to keep warm.
Dot. No, I guess Santa Claus was coming to see their little children, and they wanted to see him too. [To Polly.] What do you want Santa Claus to bring you?
Polly. Santa Claus hasn't ever been to our house.
Dot. What, hasn't ever been to your house!
Dick. Haven't you ever seen him?
Jim. No, she never saw him, but I saw a stuffed Santa Claus in a window once.
Dick. Why, he comes to our house every single year.
Dot. I thought he went to everybody's houses in this world.
Jim [leaning toward Dick and speaking low]. I get Polly presents when I get enough money.
Dick. But doesn't Santa Claus fill your stockings?
