"Now for some coasting!" cried Bert.
"And snow men!" added Freddie.
"And I'm going to make a snow house for my Washington doll!" cried
Flossie.
"Oh, I love snow!" ejaculated Nan. "It's lovely to have it come so near
Christmas!"
"That's so!" exclaimed Bert. "It soon will be Christmas! Now let's go out and have some fun in the snow!"
And they did, rolling and tumbling about, making snow men and houses, and coasting on their sleds.
Miss Pompret wrote Mr. Bobbsey a letter, stating that she had sent a check for one hundred dollars to the Red Cross in the names of Bert and Nan Bobbsey.
"That was certainly very nice of her," said Mrs. Bobbsey, when her husband read this letter to her.
"Well, Miss Pompret is a very nice lady," answered Mr. Bobbsey. "I am very glad that the children got those missing dishes back for her."
"So am I. She has been greatly worried for years over them."
