.By Derek Etherington

Santa Claus was delivering all the
toys for all those girls and boys. '
Hc had 1 more house to deliver to.
The one place with the smallest
chimney all through the town. He
had never got stuck in it before. He
hoped that fie wouldn't get stuck in •
it this year either. He grabbed his
sack and went for the chimney. He
get to the bottom 'hut -he got stuck.
On no, what's that; Oh it's just the
wood down there. But"what if the
children -see -me or if their parents)
do. Oh, no, Oh, no . Well my,only
hope is to go hack up the chimney
and go down and in the front door.
Justus he staved up he fell down
and his sack hit him in the head.
He said, at least I'M in the house.
He filled the stockings and put
presents under the tree. Went up the
chimney and flew away till next
Christmas.

By Sara Mcallister

Once upon a time, in the woods,
three little beavers were cutting
down a very fine pine .tree.
"Christmas is near, one beaver
said.
"I will -find the mole and he will
make a. hole in the ground for the
tree." So the 'beaver went off to
find the mole.
Then another beaver said, "1 will
ask everyone to find all their deco-
rations for the fine pine tree."
So he went to ask all the ani-
mals to find all their decorations.
And the - other beaver said,
"Christmas is _even closer than it
was before.
We must get things ready," The
one beaver found the mole an the
mole started to make a hole. And
the other beaver got all their deco-
" rations from Mrs. Squirrel and thc
rest of the animals of the forest.
Christmas came nearer and near-
er. All theanimals were excited.
Finally the big day came. Every-

By Room 6
Stephen Central
The Christmas Concert was on
Tuesday, December 13, 1988. The
title was "Sing the Christmas Sto-
ry". was
the students were in a
choir. The students sat in a corner
of the gymnasium. The concert was
supposed to start at 7 p.m. Instead
it started at 7:30. When they opened
the curtains they collapsed. The cur -
tams collapsed .on Joseph's family.
. It looked like an orange ocean. The
ocean moved behind the backdrop.
It was,so hot in the choir four peo-
ple fainted. Some people from the
audience picked then, up and took
them outside. While the kindergart-
ens were singing some fell off the
stage. They .fell amongst the Pri-
mary. Choir. The Choir screamed
and cried. Then they ran into the
hall. The parents ran after their
kids. That left only the teachers.
That was the end of thc Christmas
Concert.

Christmas is a time to give,
A time to share,
A time to care,
A time to love,
A time to spend with your loved
ones,
A time to think of the less form.-

Jobs Here.
One clay When Juggle was going to

an elf for the stable to keep the rein-
deer warm Read all about it."
I will take one "Fifty cents please".

Poor Santa
By Alyssa Darling

It was the night before Christmas
and Santa had pneumonia. Santa
can't go out for Christmas. He was
sad. Nobody would have Christmas
this year. The children would be sad
too.
"Oh dear," said Mrs. Claus. "Your
reindeer arc sick too." "Oh no," said
Santa. "I need some medicine now."
"Okay," said Mrs. Claus.
But at 12 o'clock he wasn't sick
any more, "Yeah, Yeah," said San-
ta. "I feel. much better now. But
what about the reindeer?" "Oh," said
Mrs. Claus. "I will -go to the rein-
deer and sec if they arc bcttcr."
Mrs. Claus came back and said
the reindeer arc much better. Santa
was off to the houses.
When he got there there was only
him there.
•
Santa said "You are hired."
He was happy because he didn't
have to do the interview.
Santa said that he docs. the best job
"in. the .whole `table.
