J BLYTH Chry stal Cucksey [left] and Karin Lee play two of the stars that shone on Christmas eve in the retelling of the Christmas story in “Three Wee Kings” the senior classes’ play at the Blyth Public School Concert Thursday night. Christmas thoughts A CHRISTMAS THOUGHT On December 24 an old, fat, man will fly around in the night, coming down people’s chimneys, invading their privacy. Hey! that’s the wrong portrayal of Mr. C.l But what about this portrayal of Christmas: merchants jacking of prices, calling it X-mas sale, people doing things in the name of X-mas, not knowing what it’s about. The whole thing is, it’s CHRIST mas, not X-mas. All festivities are in honour of Christ’s birthday. You’re probably thinking that if I feel this way, I don’t need gifts. That’s true, but in giving gifts is sharing our good fortune with others .just as God gave his only Son. An ever-popular saying is “Jesus is the reason for the Season. ’’ We Chopping down the tree is fun - I’m glad I’m only chopping one. Often we go out to play, It is always fun and gay. Jennifer Cucksey & Jill Jenkins, Grade 6, Blyth P.S. should be aware that Jesus’ Birth is why we celebrate Christmas. Keep sharing your good fortune, be thankful, and be aware of how happy the season should be. Merry Christ­ mas! John Ramirez Blyth P.S. WHAT CHRISTMAS MEANS TOME Christmas is a time when we remember when Mary and Joseph travelled to Bethlehem and they had a little boy. His name was Jesus. He was born a King. Christmas is to give and to love; Christmas is a time to see relatives and family, and share this holiday with them. Jerrod Button Blyth P.S. A CHRISTMAS POEM Seasons Greetings!
