  In a small town far away, a man stole some money from a house.The police began to look for the thief, and they found him in two days.They brought him to the police station and found some of the money in his coat.

  There was a new policeman at the police station, and they wanted to give him some work.

  “Take this thief to the city,”said one of them.“You must go there by train, and it goes very soon.Don’t be late.”

  The policeman and the thief set out along the road to the station.On their way they came to a shop.In this shop bread was sold.

  “We have no food, and we must eat something in the train”.said the thief,“It’s a long way to the city and it will take a long time.I’ll go into this shop and buy some bread.Then you and I can eat it in the train.Wait here for me.”

  The policeman was glad.“I’ll have some food in the train,”he thought.“Be quick,”he said to the thief.“We haven’t much time.”

  The thief went into the shop, and the policeman waited in the street for a long time.But then he began to think about the train, and at last he went into the shop.

  “Where’s that man who came in here to buy some bread?”asked the policeman.

  “Oh, he went out of the back door,”said the shopkeeper.

  The policeman ran out of the back door, but he could not see the thief.He ran down the road but he could not find him.So he had to go back to the police station and tell the others about it.They were very angry with him and he was very unhappy.

  All the police of the town began to look for the thief again, and they soon caught him.They brought him back to the police station and called the same policeman.

  “Now,”said one of them angrily,“take him to the city, and don’t lose him again!”

  The policeman and the thief set out again along the same road to the station, and they came to the same shop.

  “Wait here,”said the thief.“I want to go into that shop and buy some bread for our journey.”

  “Oh, no,”said the policeman.“You did that before, and you ran away.This time, I’ll go into the shop and buy the bread, and you must wait here for me.”

My husband and children think they are very lucky that they are living and that it’s Christmas again. They can’t see that we live on a dirty street in a dirty house among people who aren’t much good. But Johnny and children can’t see this. What a pity it is that our neighbours have to make happiness out of all this dirt. I decided that my children must get out of this. The money that we’ve saved isn’t nearly enough.
The McGaritys have money but they are so proud. They look down upon the poor. The McGarity girl just yesterday stood out there in the street eating from a bag of candy(糖果)while a ring of hungry children watched her. I saw those children looking at her and crying in their hearts; and when she couldn’t eat any more she threw the rest down the sewer(下水道). Why, is it only because they have money ? There is more to happiness than money in the world, isn’t there?
