charles schumer said in a telephone interview that his office had spoken with officials at both apple and google on monday. “we asked them if they could find a way on their own to prevent apple from

with the mournful sigh of seventeen years.aunt emmy smiled. aunt emmy was sixty, and spent the hours she didnt spend in a bed, on a sofa or in a wheel chair; but aunt emmy was never heard to sigh.“the gifts which money can purchase are not the only ones we can give,” said aunt emmy gently, “nor the best, either.”“oh,i know its nicer to give something of your own work,” agreed clorinda, “but materials for fancy work cost too. that kind of gift is just as much out of the question for me as any other.”“thatwas not what i meant,” said aunt emmy.“whatdid you mean, then?” asked clorinda, looking puzzled.auntemmy smiled.“supposeyou think out my meaning for yourself,” she said. “that would be better than if i explained it. besides, i dont think icouldexplain it. take the beautiful line of a beautiful poem to help you in your thinking out: the gift without the giver is bare.”“idput it the other way and say, the giver without the gift is bare,” said clorinda. “that is my predicament(窘境)exactly. well, i hope by next christmas ill not be quite bankrupt. im going into mr. callenders store down at murraybridge in february. he has offered me the place, you know.”“wontyour aunt miss you terribly?” said aunt emmy gravely. “ithink she would rather have your companionship than a part of your salary, clorinda,” said aunt emmy. “but of course you must decide for yourself, dear.” “well,i must say bye-bye and run home.” clorindalived just across the road from aunt emmy in a tiny white house behind some huge willows. but aunt mary lived there too-the only relative clorinda had, for aunt emmy wasnt really her aunt at all. clorinda had always lived with aunt mary ever since she could remember.clorindapuzzled over aunt emmys meaning for days. then all at once it came to her. onchristmas day, clorinda went over to aunt emmys. aunt emmy was lying on the sofa before the fire, and clorinda sat down beside her.“ivecome to tell you all about it,” she said. “auntemmy, i thought for days over your meaning . and then one evening it just came to me. at first i didnt think icouldgive some of them, and then i thought how selfish i was. i would have been willing to pay any amount of money for gifts if i had had it, but i wasnt willing to pay what i had. i got over that, though, aunt emmy. now im going to tell you what i did give.”“first,there was old aunt kitty. you know she was my nurse when i was a baby. she is always glad when i go to see her, but ive never gone except when i couldnt help it. she is very deaf, and rather dull and stupid, you know. well, i gave her a whole day. i took my knitting yesterday, and sat with her the whole time and just talked and talked. she was so pleased and proud; she told me when i came away that she hadnt had such a nice time for years. ”“thenthere was . florence. you know, aunt emmy, we were always intimate friends until last year. then florence once told rose watson something i had told her in confidence. i found it out and i was so hurt. i couldnt forgive florence, and i told her plainly i could never be a real friend to her again. florence felt badly, because she really did love me, and she asked me to forgive her, but it seemed as if i couldnt. well, aunt emmy, that was my christmas gift to her . my forgiveness.”“igave aunt mary her gift this morning. i told her i wasnt going to murraybridge, that i just meant to stay home with her. she was so glad-and im glad, too, now that ive decided so.”“yourgifts have been real gifts, clorinda,” said aunt emmy. “something of you-the best of you-went into each of them.”“ididnt forget you, aunt emmy,” she said, as she unpinned the paper.therewas a rosebush. auntemmy loved flowers. she put her finger under one of the roses and kissed it.“itsas sweet as yourself, dear child,” she said tenderly. “and it will be a joy to me all through the lonely winter days. youve found out the best meaning of christmas giving, havent you, dear?”“yes,thanks to you, aunt emmy,” said clorinda softly.55clorinda felt anxious before christmas because_.a. she had to leave aunt mary b. she didnt know what kind of christmas gifts she should buy
