Christmas means to me
that Christ was born. The
Sheperds and the Wisemen
came and brought gifts. Mary
and Joseph was happy. You
should be happy too.

AN 91-D-FASHIONP
CHRISTMAS
Esther Merrill
Grade — Centennial.
I'd like to look into the Past
Fer just one Christmas pay
And see the way my Grand
Folks lived
And celebrated so gay.
By the fireplace stood a pine
tree
With candles glowing bright
With popcorn strings hung
high and low
It was a glorious sight.
The children emptied their
stockings.
And went to church .in a.
sleigh
They sang. hymns and blessed
the Christ Child
Born on our Christmas Day,
Through the deep snow they
would return
In a one-horse open sleigh
Many relatives would arrive
And were happy and gay
They'd sit down to a turkey
meal
That everyone would enjoy
With plum pudding and more
delights.
That would fill •every girl and
boy
I'd like to look into the past
For just one Christmas Day
And see the way my Grand
Folks lived
And celebrated so gay.
SANTA'S PREDICAMENTS
By Ena VanderSpek
Grade 4 — Usborne
Oh Santa you're late.
You'd better hurry up or you
won't have faith. Santa went
to the reindeer sled. 'He
foregot that the reindeer had
not been well fed. Oh dear,
Oh dear what shall we do?
Now Santas riding in a
skidoo. That's how Santa gets
mixed up.
LETTER TO SANTA CLAUS
By Brenda Taylor
Grade 8 — Stephen
Dear Santa Claus
It's that time of year again
that you'll be getting loads of
letters asking you to bring
"all sorts of toys to good
little girls and boys." Well,
I've tried not to be selfish
this year; and I hope you
find my letter a little
different.
Santa Claus, I'd like you
to take the biggest gift you
were going to give to me, sell
it, and share it among the
children in Biafra. I'd like
you to send a few more men
in Vietnam, back to their
homes in the United States. I
would like you to send a bit
of food and money to some
starving people, somewhere in
the world. Santa Claus, please
send a package of joy
somewhere where it's needed,
and make some more people
happy, just for me.
By Charles Mustard
Grade 5 — Centennial
Dear Santa:
Do you have snow? We
don't have much but I hope
we get a lot pretty soon so
you don't get stuck in the
mud. Now I'll get down to
business. I want a set of
walkie-talkies with my
brother. I also want a radio,
hockey stick, and a sweater.
Well, good-bye for now.

BANGING
By Bradley Gibson

Near Christmas morning. I
am going to get Banged up.
People ruening into me with
baubles, stuff like cakes,
clocks, Fathers and mothers
hiding the presents, The
shopper's arms were too full
with presents. He Banged the
door with all the presents.
They • were rattling. The
people were so tired that all
the people went home, The
storekeeper and I, the door,
were glad. And all the people
were glad too. The
storekeeper was counting his
money. They were glad.
THE NIGHT BEFORE
CHRISTMAS
By Trudy Johns
Grade 4 — Usborne
The night before Christmas
and all threw the garge not a
creature was stirring not even
a dodge.
The tirs were hun by the
chimney with care in hope
St. Nick wood fell them with
air.
THE MESSAGE OF CHRISTMAS
By Jean Falconer
Grade 8 — Centennial
Christmas is the happiest
time of the year for
everybody. The very thought
of Christmas lifts our heart
with a feeling of happy
anticipation, and we begin
planning what we shall do for
tather, mother, sisters,
brothers and schoolmates. Of
course there are eager
thoughts of what we shall
receive, but our first concern
is what we shall give.
Love is the best gift to
give. We learned to give love
when Jesus Christ went out
as a precious baby to show
the way of love. He loved
everybody. This is the spirit
of Christmas.
Our gifts to another may
be very small but we can
make them very acceptable to
those who receive them by
our thoughts as we select
them or work on them.
Fill your gifts with love
and both the giver and the
receiver will be happy. • •
LETTER TO SANTA CLAUS
By Danny Haugh
Parliament Buildings,
Ottawa, Ontario.
December 10, 1968
Dear Santa,
I've been wanting to write
this letter for quite some
time, but I have had no free
time at all. First on my list
is Bob Stanfield whom I
think would simply adore an
electric train. I don't want to
be sarcastic but that's about
his speed real fast. Mitchell
Sharp who is our minister for
External Affairs, he could use
a Johnny Seven to fight in
Biafra. Also for Richard.
Nixon being as he will be
involved in the space program
I'm sure he would appreciate
a Billy Blastoff just to
practice on . Oh yes I almost
forgot, what's his name in
France oh yeah DeGaulle he
wants Quebec for Christmas
but I think if you talked to
Nixon you could have this
fellow on the moon in no
time. Santa I would like a
football for Christmas.
Yours truly,
Pierre Elliott Trudeau
P.S. — Vote Liberal next
election. (I need it).
DAD AND THE PARCELS
By Fraser Boyle
Grade 4 — Stephen
Our dad was looking for
his rubbers and he did not
know where he could find
them. So he ask his wife and
she said in the clost she said.
No they are not in there. So
he opened this cupboard all
the parcels came out and one
thing broke. It was his
wristwatch which broke. And
it said To Dad. But he found
his rubbers.,
CHRISTMAS
By Betty Beer
Gr ade 3 — Hensall
We go to bed when the clock
strikes twelve
Pretty soon Santa Claus
comes with his elves,
He fills our stockings as quick
as can be
Santa puts presents for mom
and dad, under the tree.
Then he eats his snack that
we laid out
Now he takes off on the rest
of his route,
When we wake up at dawn
There are little hoof marks
on the snowy lawn.
Here comes daddy and
mommy too
"Today is Christmas children!
Where are you?"
Now we open up our gifts,
Santa left a big one that I
can't lift.
It's a new sewing machine for
mom,
It goes buzzzzz Rum Tum
Turn,
Now we have breakfast
Then we play with our new
toys
We take them outside
To show other girls and boys.
That is some of the things
we do,
I think you should do this
too.
But 40sephS wife so id44 and meek;
Its not the trips we sometime
take,
BiA Baby Jesus birth and
Its not the laughter and the
riots,
But all the nights so very
quiet;
Its not the tree and lights
and all,
But baby Jesus in his stall.
Its not poor Rudolph's sad
sad story,
But Mary 'a Joseph in all
their glory;
So all you 'people out there,
"Be glad!
For Christ was born, a happy
lad.
