L. M. Montgomery 
Bertie’s New Year 

Bertie Ross has a few more deliveries to make for Sampson’s store before the New Years’ holiday. After a delivery at the Forbes’ house, Dr. Forbes’ daughters invite cold-looking Bertie in to get warm and ask why he isn’t wearing mittens. Explaining that he lent them to his sickly brother William John, the sisters hatch a plan to provide a proper New Year’s celebration with the Ross brothers and provide them with a little holiday warmth in the meantime.
