Bonnie, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Vic Hogarth, Exeter, works with Atomic Energy of Canada Limited, Chalk River, as a travel clerk. Her job is to make travel arrangements for staff travelling on company business, and to assist visitors who wish to make changes in their schedules. A recent trip arranged by Mrs. Sitter was from Chalk River to Ottawa to Vancouver to Tokyo to Bangkok to Bombay to New Delhi to Cairo to Frankfurt to Paris to Montreal to Ottawa and return to Chalk River. Mrs. Sitter has arranged 621 trips in the first six months of ON CHRISTMAS NIGHT By Sheila Duncan Grade 3 — Usborne It was Christmas night. Tim and Sue were watching a movie. Sue was five and Tim was 8. Their mother called it is time to go to bed. Mrs. Brock said, Santa Claus is coming tonight. Tim said, Oh Boy! Let's go Sue. The children rushed upstairs. As they got in to bed Sue said, "I wonder what Santa will bring me. Ya! said Tim. I hope he brings me some trucks and cars and a bicycle. I would like a doll. "A Doll" cried Tim. I hate dolls. Why! They are better than stupid trucks and cars. They were really fighting. Their ,,mother said "Whats going on? She came thumpety thump. Get into bed this minute. You should be ashamed it was your falt explained Sue. It was your falt. Their mothers, said Tim—m then at last they were to sleep. Then Santa came down the chimney. He took out a doll, and a trike for Sue. Santa got out a bike for Tim, and a truck. Then he left. Then it was Christmas morning. The children got up at nine. Sue was down first. She hid Tim's toys. When Tim came down stairs, he said "were are my toys" he said loudly. I don't no said mother, they were sitting right here when I came down. Sue giggled. Tim gave a loud puff. And ran after Sue. He grabed her. Tim replied Sue gave the toys. So! said, mother. Don't do that again. So that was the story of Sue and Tim. By Bill Hibbert Grade 3 — Usborne Dear Santa Claus, How is Mrs. Santa and the elvs, I hope you have a Merry Christmas. Santa could I please have a masheen gun and I would like some dincky toys. And Santa I would like a spirogaracph. I like to play with a spiragaraph. I hope you have lots of toys for other kids, I hope you don't get stuck in the chimny. I will leave lots of goodys on a table. I will this fiscal year; last year she planned 1,162. "I have found that although a straight line may be the shortest distance between two points it is not necessarily the route people want to travel," she says. Whenever possible she will suggest alternative routes, to give the traveller a choice. A long flight can be tiring for the traveller, so Mrs. Sitter makes arrangements for a stopover to allow for orientation to new time zones and for rests. Appointed to the new position in 1967,Mrs. Sitter had some training in airline ticketting and as traffic agent with the Detroit office of Aeronaves de Mexico. Her husband, Conrad Sitter is a technologist with the research chemical branch at AECL. leave a carrot for each of the Reindeers.

Your friend. — Continued from page lg office Thursday Afternoon with a formula for Making Joy Logs, the Proper name for those homemade sticks which give off colored flames when burned_ in a fireplace. My personal tOOP1ts to Mrs, Cudmore for her iPterest. By the way, Mrs. Cudmore told me she was going to wrap up one of her logs for Mrs, McCaffrey (who requested the information last week) to burn at ChriStmas since it is too late to make any of her own. That's really the Christmas spirit, I'd say. Mr. Cudmore makes Joy Logs every year, I learned, and the family enjoys them at the cottage during the spring, summer and fall. He seasons them in large pickling crocks, and Mrs. Cudmore says his two secrets are to roll the newspaper tightly and to dry the logs thoroughly before burning. Here are the instructions. (I suggest you clip this for reference at a later date.) JOY LOGS Fold old newspapers in half, then fold again. Roll a ,number of rolls together, and tie not too tightly with heavy string. Soak in the following solution: four lbs. bluestone, three lbs. rock salt dissolved in one gallon of water. Place logs in a five gallon crock or wooden vessel. Add solution and fill to the top with water. Let soak for about three weeks, then remove and dry thoroughly — the longer the better. These will burn for a long time and give out pretty colored flames. For yellow flames, use By Johnny Nedza Grade 2 — Stephen When I think of Christmas I think of Santa Claus and I think of the toys Santa Claus brings me. I want a pare of skates and a jack in 'the 'box. My brother is going to have the same thing as me. Santa Claus is nice to children. By Tammy Regier Grade 2 — Stephen When I think of Christmas I think of Jesus and Santa Claus. I like Christmas because we get Christmas cards. It is fun on Christmas. rw We have Christmas because it'is Jesus 'brithday. By Lee Hodgert Grade 2 — Usbome Dear Santa Claus, Thank you for all my toys. I don't need any more toys. Your friend. WHEN CHRIST WAS BORN By Brenda Sauder Grade 6 — McCurdy There was once three wise men, They who saw a star. Jump on your camels wise men! Follow this star to a place afar. They followed this little star a shinning, Through the dark dark night. They kept on a riding, Till they saw the lovely sight. They came to a little city, Where they saw the babe. One said, "Come with me, Oh come with me I pray. The babe was sweet and tender Dressed in a gown of white There he lay in splender, In the cold cold night. Who is this lovely babe? The wise men ask. He is Christ the Lord Who has come at last. Then the wise men gave him presents, They layed them down by his bed. And he fell asleep with the soft hay under his head.

Or You May, bore Small holes in Pieces of wood, put small quantities of .a drug in each hole and seal it in with a cork. Loosen the cork before burning. * * And now, may I take this opportunity to wish each one of You a very blessed Christmas and a happy New Year, Had two additional notes from readers who are willing to share their recipes for Yule or Joy Logs. The first came from Mrs. J. Skillender, Parkhill, who sent the following instructions: Put 2 lbs. course salt, 2 lbs. bluestone and two gallons boiling water into a wooden pail. Add one oz. each of any of the following chemicals: Strantium nitrate — red; bismuth nitrate — crimson; antimony chloride — blue; barium chloride (or borax) — green; potassium chloride — purple. (Use only one color additive per lot,) Soak rolls in this mixture. Dry logs completely on a rack. The second came from Mrs. M. A. C. Richardson, Hensall. She notes that those persons who make Joy Logs should pack the logs loosely in the solution because the newspaper swells in the liquid and the soaked logs may be difficult to remove.
