Polly Oliver’s Problem

CHAPTER XVII
4/11

"For December and January I shall have Christmas and winter, and frost and ice and snow, with the contrasts of eastern and Californian climates." "I can get the Immigration Bureau to give you a percentage on that story, Polly," said Uncle Jack Bird, who had strolled in and taken a seat.

"Just make your facts strong enough, and you can make a handsome thing out of that idea." "Don't interrupt us, Jack," said Mrs.Bird; "and go directly out, if you please.

February will be full of sentiment and patriotism,--St.Valentine's Day and Washington's Birthday,--I can hardly wait for that, there are so many lovely things to do in that month.
