the new year’s tradition

the noisy plaza was bustling as people gathered around the city’s oldest toy store. at the start of each year, the store displayed a magical winter scene in its enormous front window. the tradition began with the store's original owner, margot thistle, in her desire to keep the hope and excitement of the new year alive. the yearly display inspired many customers to visit the store.

it was a joyous tradition passed down to margot’s daughter. however, margot's daughter began to skimp on costs. instead of creating a winter wonderland display, she featured only the more popular toys of the year, hoping to sell them in larger quantities. but the opposite happened. instead of selling more toys, the store lost customers and fell into disrepair.

margot eventually took back control of the store from her daughter. with the of her grandson, andre, she rebuilt the toy store and its new year’s display into a fantastical delight. as the sun set on the town square, margot and andre prepared to pull back the curtain on the display. flashbulbs went off, social media began buzzing, and the two toy store owners smiled from ear-to-ear. margot and andre were thrilled to once again give their community a magical winter experience at the start of each year.

Read the excerpts from part 3 of "an occurrence at owl creek bridge." a rising sheet of water curved over him, fell down upon him, blinded him, strangled him! the cannon had taken a hand in the game. as he shook his head free from the commotion of the smitten water he heard the deflected shot humming through the air ahead, and in an instant it was cracking and smashing the branches in the forest beyond. *** a whiz and rattle of grapeshot among the branches high above his head roused him from his dream. the baffled cannoneer had fired him a random farewell. he sprang to his feet, rushed up the sloping bank, and plunged into the forest. *** as he is about to clasp her he feels a stunning blow upon the back of the neck; a blinding white light blazes all about him with a sound like the shock of a cannon—then all is darkness and silence! what function does the motif of the cannon serve throughout the story? the cannon continually pushes farquhar to continue his journey through his dream and back to reality. the cannon encourages farquhar to investigate whether his escape was a dream or reality. the cannon reminds farquhar that time is subjective and encourages him to move quickly in order to reach his home. the cannon represents farquhar’s romantic dream that he escaped his execution and will return home.
