What is
Christmas?
BY DEBI WOODEN
What's Christmas? Well we all
know the answer to that
question. Its a time when we
celebrate Christ's birth and
Santa Claus's visit. A time when
everyone is at peace with their
friends and neighbours. The time
when you say "Merry
Christmas" to a perfect stranger
and not think yourself a fool. Its
a time when most of humanity
joins to celebrate one of the
most peaceful and beautiful
times of the year.
Christmas is something
different to each individual.
To the small child it's Santa
Claus's visit and hopes for an
electric train, a pair of skates or
a doll.
To others its a holiday, and a
visit with relatives.
But, to me its both these
things but something different
too. Christmas to me is one big
wish at the end of another year.
I look back and remember
embarrassing, sad and
wonderfully happy occasions,
but more than the look at the
past, I look towards the future
and here I find my wish. So I
would like to share with you my
Christmas wish for 1969.
"Oh Thank you God on this
cold night,
For all you've done for me.
Especially so this wish of mine,
Might really someday be.
I wish tonight for peace on earth
For every colour and creed
Because dear Lord if things work
out,
There'd never again be greed.
Then all the world would share
alike.
And no man would be in want,
Oh, dear God, now I can see
How wonderful it would be.
Oh thank you God for the hope
we need
On this wonderful Christmas
Eve."
and Mrs. Charles Douglas, Staffa
No. 3, Mrs. Leslie Waddell and
Mrs. Filmer Chappel.
Miss Vera Hambley gave a
most interesting motto on
Christmas customs and
Christmas superstitions,
Everyone enjoyed a piano
instrumental "Star of the East::
played by Mrs. Robert
McCaughey.
Mrs. Russell Worden gave a
most interesting talk and
demonstration on Christmas
accessories. Miss Judy Jeffery
from Staffa No. 1 4-H club set
up a display and gave comments
on a Grooming guide for hands
and nails, feet and legs.
Miss Vera Hambley read two
poems, What is Christmas and
Friendship.
Secret pals were revealed and
gifts exchanged.
A Christmas lunch was served
by the hostesses, Mrs. Carter
Kerslake, Mrs. Lloyd Miller and
Mrs. Ed. Chappel.
PUPILS ENTERTAIN
Mrs. Ronald Kraemer and her
Grade 5 and 6 pupils at Hibbert
No. 4 school entertained the
pre-school children, parents and
friends at a Christmas party on
Thursday.
Plays, recitations and songs
were enjoyed after which lunch
was served by the teacher and
pupils.
Appreciation of those present
was expressed by Mrs. Charles
Douglas.
Don't be bad
By ENA VAN DER SPEK
Grade 5 — Usborne Central
Don't be bad kids or Santa
won't come.
All the elves will flip their lids,
To find that in school you
chewed gum
All the toys for girls and boys,
who do the things they
should,
And you'd by angry, very angry
and say, I would've got toys
if I were good."
So don't be bad kids
It's my last warning.
CHRISTMAS
By Diane VanBergen
Grade 6 — Exeter
I looked it up in the dictionary,
It said a feast and all so merry,
It said that Christ was born for
us,
And this -is really true because,
Christ was born for us.
It doesn't make you feel quite
scrappy,
It does though make you quite
happy,
It sounds so gay and merry,
And this is not quite contrary,
It's really fabulous for what it
does
For what it does is for Santa
Claus,
