"A Wet Paper Towel?"
By DEANA BEAMAN
Hensall
Twas the night Wort,' Christmas
When the clock.truck nine,
A mouse began squeaking
How the dog whined,
lie started to yelp, and then to
howl
He covered his ears with a wet
paper towel
The noise was unbeaible, to
hear that dog bark
Isn't it too bad he wasn't a lark?
The neighbours were shouting
No more was it dark the lights
were all blaring.
The neighbours and friends their
eyes were glaring.
We all began yelling and
screaming aloud
And then the dust rose in one big
cloud.
The kids just stood there like
stupid clops,
Not saying a word just wondering
aloud,
"Oh what will we do if the
chandelier drops?"
And then a rumble went through
the old house
The walls were shaking, the floor
began quaking
The neighbours were scared Aunt
Marthy was tr 9.
When out from tne chimney an
old man appeared
With a red cherry nose and silky
white beard.
His clothing was covered with
dirty old soot,
His one boot was missing from
off his left foot
He must be , he isn't. . oh,
maybe he is.
He put out a toy, it couldn't be
his.
Oh, wait, the name tag says his.
We searched through the house
No his could be found but under
the sink
Was hiding a mouse
So it caused the trouble, that tiny
thing.
And all of a sudden it started to
sing,
The squeaking was terrible the
noise unbearable
The dog started wining when
through the night air.
"Merry Christmas to all, and to
all a good night."
Hello Santa Claus
By
By MARY MANDERS
St. Patrick's
One night, in bed, Susan was
thinking about Santa Claus. If
only she could go to the North
Pole then she could see Santa
Claus, She went to school and
told her teacher about her
dream. Susan said, "If I could go
and see I would tell him what I
want for Christmas." Then Susan
went home and asked her mother
if she could go to the North Pole
to see Santa. Then it was night,
Susan had another dream. She
dreampt that she went to the
North Pole and saw Santa Claus.
Susan knocked on Santa's door.
One of the elves answered. It was
the red elf. The red elf said, "Yes
may I help you?" "Sure come on
in. Hi Santa! Ho! Ho! Ho!
MERRY CHRISTMAS
My Christmas Spirit
By BETTY LYNN KOEHLER
Hensall
Twas the night before Christmas
When the lands were all white;
Then when Santa came jingling,
What a beautiful sight.
All the children were tucked in
their warm snuggly beds,
When Santa's nine reindeer were
all being fed;
They were terribly anxious for
morning to come,
To see what dear Santa had left
for their mom.
They were running and jumping
when morning arrived,
Then they raced down the
stairway for all of their lives,
When they found such, nice
presents beneath the green
tree,
They were suddenly glad they
were actually free,
Now this is the feeling I feel
every year,
And to all a Merry Christmas and
a Happy New Year.
The Best Of
The Century
By KEISTA MOROZ
Exeter
Christmas long ago father and
son would go out to the woods and
chop down a tree for the
holidays. Now a days we go out
and buy a tree or use last years
artificial tree.
They used Gingerbread cookies
and popcorn chains and all sorts
of homemade things for the
decorating of the tree. Today we
go out and buy Christmas lights
of all colours, tinsel garland,
icicles, and angel hair.
Most of their Christmas gifts
were made by mother and father.
In these days we go out and buy
gifts and toys which the children
see on T.V. Christmas is Christ's
birthday who is the Son of God. In
these and those days God means
for man to love each other, to
live in peace, and good will
towards all men.
It was Christmas Night
By MARIAN VAN HEUVEL
St. Patricks'
It was Christmas night,
There was no one in sight
The tree was decorated,
The children slept and waited,
Their socks which were red
Were hung by the bed,
Suddenly a loud click,
They knew twas St. Nick,
Twenty minutes he spent,
Then he quickly went,
He was a jolly old man,
Though he never ran,
And there on his back,
Was a large sack,
He pulled out a toy,
For the little boy,
And for sweet Polly,
He took out a dolly,
For six year old Paul,
He brought a ball,
His beard which was white,
Glistened in the night,
Then away he did go,
Through the dark and the snow,
So when you hear a click,
It may well be St. Nick.
Who's Coming Down
The Fireplace
The Trials and
Tribulations ,
of Christmas
By BRENDA PEPPER
Hensall . By JOANNE ONDREJICKA
Stephen Central
Who's coming down the
fireplace,
With a bright red jacket and
white around the base,
And two happy dimples that
cover up his face.
Than he puts the presents down
with a quick fast pace,
And jumps up the chimney like a
flying ace.
Then into the sleigh he hops with
grace,
And eight little reindeer fly off
into space.
A familiar ring's in
the air — holiday
time is near. Hope it
holds happiness and
love abounding.
Ross Francis Jesus
By MARILYN COOPER
Exeter
He came to our world as a
stranger,
Just a new born Babe in a
manger,
God sent down His love,
From heaven above,
And it saves us from sin and all
danger.

Twasthenight after
The house was in an untidy state r
With paper and • ribbons, boxes
and bows
And cards and dangler§ and
sticky Scotch tape
The presents were all Uoken
Or tattered or torn
And the gay Christmas wrapping
Looked lost and forlorn
And the kitchen! Oh the kitchen!
Was a sight to behold
With turkey and dressing, cups,
plates & spoons
Knives, forks, and saucers left
from yesterday noon.
Company was expected
Within the next week
To see our newest daughter
Who had just begun to speak
But here my memory fails me
And in my very confused state
I seem to have lost my daughter
Or misplaced her at any rate.
From now till the rest
Of this woe begone year
I wish you the best
And a "lot" of good cheer.
The Christmas Wish
By SUSAN BRINTNELL
Exeter
When I looked through 'my long
Christmas list,
To see if some friends I had
missed,
I realized then,
The best gift is when
They received just the thing that
they wished.
