Heather Stephen Grade 8 Exeter P.S. On Christmas Eve my family and I sat around the fire singing Christmas Carols. As the fire started to burn 'slowly out I thought about the Christmas Tree. It was very beautiful. I had red light bulbs and ' red decorations on it. Shiny tinsel glittered as it hung on the tree. There were many presents under the tree, I looked outside and saw white fluffy snow falling from the sky. It began to get late so I went to bed. All night Amprifo.ti tvizromovnanavAmtiv.voi We give thanks for the sublime and holy spirit that means Christmas. Marilyn Koehler of Walton has become a full time teacher now at a salary of $8,441 yearly. The Doig Brothers Paid a cash settlement of five percent of the appraised market value for the area of the first phase in their new subdivision in lieu of parkland, as requested by council, Council approved a new policy on tile drain loans which calls for approval up to $20,000 per year even if the farmer does more than $20,000 of work draining his land, and the work has to be done in the year applications is made. In 1980 the township was only allowed, $75,000 to be distributed on ap- plications for drainage work across the township. Two years ago the government had been allowed up to $200,000. A request from James Robson of Vanastra was refused for an asphalt base for an outdoor skating rink. Young James requested help to make the skating rink in a small municipal park in Vanastra so that he and other children at Vanastra could have a place to play ilockey because "the police had warned him not to play hockey on the roadways". Members of council agreed asphalt was not a proper base for a rink at any rate, as ice melt quickly on the black surface. A cement base or tramped snow.makes a better base, they said. James is to be notified council is unable to provide the outdoor rink for him and his fellow hockey players, On the recommendation, of T.R. Clarksqn, a provincial livestock evaluator for the ministry of agriculture, $400 was paid by council to Mrs. Edith Dale Baker, RR 4 Clinton, a Tuckersmith sheep owner, Mrs. Baker had a problem with an area dog at her sheep this past spring about lambing time, Mrs. Baker said that people, who let their dogs run loose, do not seem to understand that at this time the value of a sheep can range from $400 to $6,000 for one animal. She said the compensation paid doesn't cover her full loss. The general meeting was completed when the council went into committee of the whole in camera to discuss staff salaries for 1981. The closed meeting was called for -by Councillor Robert Broadfoot who said salaries should not be,discussed with the press present. • Ron • Ruth Ann • Margcr,et • Barb • Brenda • Pat • Donna • Ken • Shirley • Karen • Shirley • Diane • Mari • Gary • Stewart S MAEARTKET ERNER' °1211Ave?7,cPf 4zctozctizctozcotctmc000wtot.fitondwgtccoottrwficmoA C.E.

Most of the night I couldn't sleep because I was so excited, Everytime I woke up, it seemed like morning would never come, I couldn't wait any longer so I got up. I rapped on my brother's door. He answered and told me to come in. He couldn't sleep either so we both played a game, After a while we decided to quit because we were so excited so we talked about what we thought we were going to get. About eight o'clock we got our parents up. We all opened our presents and played for a while. At three o'clock we had company for Christmas Dinner. We sat down and filled ourselves with turkey, potatoes, Christmas cake and stuffing. After supper we talked and our company went home, We . had a very'merry Christmas. SANTA COMES TO MY HOUSE By Tammy Bell Grade 6 Hensall P.S. 'Twas the night before Christmas, and all were in bed "Santa is coming", Daddy had said. So we fell off to sleep, without even a peep I awoke that night And not a soul was in sight I looked out the window and there, there was snow But what was downstairs, I didn't know, So I crept down the stairs without a sound I looked around the corner and there to my surprise, right in front of my eyes, was Santa I said, "Merry Christmas," and he said it too So I say "Merry Christmas," especially for you.
