MEMORIES With Evelyn Grace
ILLUSTRATION BY LOUISE RUMLEY The battered wooden doll linked three generations of love and Merry Christmas MEMORIES With Evelyn Grace BY IRENE SCOTT I WAS HOUSE CLEANING the deep hall cupboard when I came upon a neatly wrapped package tied with Christmas ribbon. I opened it to find a battered wooden doll with some old-fashioned clothes. Evelyn Grace and all her worldly possessions! That dear old dolly predated even my earliest memories. Every year she had sat under our Christmas tree. I don't remember that first time when I was two, but I was told how my impatient young father could not wait and gave me the doll several days early. Mother had made her clothes. Here, still in the box, was the pink flannelette nightie, the only remaining "original." Other dolls and Christmases came and went, but Evelyn Grace was always there, the favorite. I still rememb.. the black day she fell off our gramophone and chipped her nose. It made her more loved than ever, for I felt that I had failed her. This little dress of unbleached cotton and turkey red —I recall that my mother had made it to cheer me up when I was home from school feeling lopsidedly miserable. We named it the "mumps dress." Here was my very first bit of knitting, a wobbly scarf, and another first, a skirt of uncertain stitches but on [TEXT LOST] ing a certainty—the dome fastener was sewn on for life. My doll lost many more chips of paint, but to me she was always beautiful. One day a grownup commented: "All she needs is a coat of paint." My sudden tears baffled her. How bitterly I resented the implication that she needed anything. Time passed. High-school days came. Evelyn Grace appeared each year under the Christmas tree, as much part of the scene as the tinsel star on top. More time passed. I was in another home, and there was now a living doll near the tree, but still the wooden one, too. One day when our little daughter was convalescing after an illness, I brought out Evelyn Grace. She found her an amusing oddity. "Mummy, she can't even cry or sleep." The real snub came ten years later as my young teenager and I decorated the Christmas tree. "Do you have to bring out that horrid old doll?" "No, dear." Momentary resentment turned to co [TEXT LOST] passion. She had yet to learn of beauty coming through love. Again I rewrapped my doll and neatly tied her up with Christmas ribbon. 18 Suburbia Today, December 1960
