1 scolded Sootot
By Tammy Durand
Grade 8
Ecole Ste. Marie
'Twas the night before
Christmas and all through
the place,
Sister was reading and Ma
and Pa wore resting from
the rat race.
The woolen socks were all
hung on the radiator
without care,
They were all full of holes,
as we had no good ones to
spare.
We were all snuggled down
under our thin sheets,
Our toes were like icicles
and we had chattering
teeth,
I was just about to relax
when I heard a scream.
I flung open the window,
prepared for quite a scene,
And what to my wondering
eyes should appear?
But. Mrs. Brown, hair all in
curlers, jumping up and

down in fear.
A mouse was her trouble, so
I scared him off,
Then she just left, my thanks
was a repugnant cough.
I just sat there kind of
depressed and sad,

Christmas day
By Scott D. Regier
Grade 5
Ecole Ste. Marie
It starts four weeks before
Christmas it is call Advent.
It is time in the church that
is very important. The way
the church counts the week
is by candles which is lit.
Younger children count the
days before Chirstmas. The
real origin of Chirstmas
is'nt getting gift the real
origin of Chirstmas is that it
is Jesus birthday. When
weeks pass the children
come excited. Tonight is
Chirstmas eve the young
kids go to sleep early and
wait for the people who are
at church. Then when your
mom get home they wake
you up.
After all the gifts on
Chirstmas Day people go to
church that didn't go on Mid-
night mass. On January ar
New year's We celebrate a
new year which will be 1981.
ill
be this' bad!
Why, I heard it was all
presents, bells, food and
holly.
And that there was a really
neat guy who was always
jolly.
I looked up to the heavens
with a tear in my eye,
The tear slid down and I
buried my face in my
hands with a sigh.
I would have sat there very
long I'm sure,
When suddenly I felt a brush
of fur.
I looked up into the eye of a
smiling, elderly guy,
"And what is wrong with
you, you look as if you were
about to cry.
I said, "Who are you?"
With a jolly laugh he said,
"Guess who?"
I wear red at Christmas, and
who else has a beard as
white as snow?
"Why you're not ... Santa
Claus? Oh no!
"I am at that," he said with
a grin,
"Aren't you going to invite
me in?"
I brought him into the place,
And was a bit flushed to see
his ears
it in such a disgrace.
"I have nothing to offer you,
but won't you stay a
while?" •
"You may have nothing for
me but I have something
for you," he said with a
smile.
And with that he left leaving
a surprise.
I looked around and couldn't
believe my eyes.
There was holly, food,
presents, and bells,
I was so happy I felt like giv-
ing out yells.
Christmas now had a deeper
meaning, it was nothing

Dear Santa:
I am good. I will leave you
something to eat. This is
what I want, a rocket, a

ship. I would like a train for
Ross and a doll for Kathy -

Santa from, Joey.
