This can be decorated for the occasion. Each little guest brings an apron to be donned before the "popping" begins. First, shell the corn. Second, take a dipper full of corn and "pop" it. This popping is done in a pan over a clear fire. Third, divide into parts, when done. Fourth, sprinkle some with cochineal, if pink corn is desired. Fifth, string the pop-corn on threads.
A strong glare of winter light came in through the naked sash for Boardman apparently not only did not close his window-blinds, but did not pull down his curtains, when he went to bed and shone upon his gay, shrewd face where he lay, showing his pop-corn teeth in a smile at Mavering.
"Do you often talk as fast as that?" she asked. "And do you expect your friends to answer with the same velocity? If you do, Hester Alden, never come to me with your questions." Hester laughed. "I always talk fast when I get excited. The words pop from my mouth like pop-corn over a hot fire." "Give me time and I'll answer your questions. Our crack team is the Invincibles.
Many a time she'd slipped away from her governess and come down to the spring-house for a chat with me, and we'd make pop-corn together by my open fire, and talk about love and clothes, and even the tariff, Miss Patty being for protection, which was natural, seeing that was the way her father made his money, and I for free trade, especially in the winter when my tips fall off considerable.
When the people across the river had been popping corn for about a month, the Pop-corn man went to the King of Romalia's palace, and sought an audience. He told him how he had discovered his daughter in the palace of the King across the river. The King of Romalia clasped his hands in despair. "I must make war," said he, "but my army is nothing to his." However, he at once went about making war.
“Haven’t any dulse?” Laura repeated with an appearance of being greatly shocked. “Do you mean to say you haven’t any dulse?” Maida did not answer—she put her lips tight together. “This is a healthy shop,” Laura went on in a sneering tone, “no mollolligobs, no apple-on-the-stick, no tamarinds, no pop-corn balls, no dulse. Why don’t you sell the things we want?
The next day after Billy's midnight prowl which was Saturday, there was great commotion among the circus people, for the leading lady accused her rival, the brunette, of coming into her dressing room while she slept and destroying her blonde wig; while the pop-corn man said thieves had been at his stand and broken his glass case and eaten his pop-corn, beside they had spilled all his lemonade that he had intended using the next day; the night watchman was going to be discharged for not attending to his business; then the Indian snake charmer came along and told them the thief had visited his tent but his snakes had frightened him away.
They were all decorated with strings of Pop-corn, they carried baskets of pop-corn, and bore corn-poppers over their shoulders, and they crossed the river in a row boat. Once over the river they went about peddling pop-corn. The man sent the boys all over the city, but he himself went straight to the palace. He knocked at the palace-door, and the maid-servant came.
Oh say, are you doing much insurance examining?" They went on to the street fair. Lining one block of Main Street were the "attractions" two hot-dog stands, a lemonade and pop-corn stand, a merry-go-round, and booths in which balls might be thrown at rag dolls, if one wished to throw balls at rag dolls.
=Christmas= suggests the making of toys and all sorts of things suitable for gifts. If the work centers around the Christmas tree, it offers opportunity for coöperation in making trimming such as paper chains, pop-corn strings, etc., as well as individual gifts. If a tree is not obtainable, a box may be dressed up in imitation of Santa's sleigh drawn by cardboard reindeer.
