Christmas Eve Night
By Laura Elder
Grade 4, Hensel) Public School
On Christmas Eve night I was
wakened from my slumber, be-
cause of the Christmas Eve thun-
der. But then I heard it, the jingle of
sleigh bells and a jc'ly laugh, Ho
Ho.
Just then I knew who it was. It
was Santa, it was Santa. Oh what
shall I do? I put on my robe and my
Bugs Bunny slippers.
I ran down the stairs to see Santa
arrive. Oh this was the best time
my life! I hid behind a cupboard as
Santa came down and put all the
presents around.
Many thanks to
our customers
and friends for
their patronage.
Happy
holidays!

Santa Claus
By Joey Taylor
Grade 8, McCurdy Public School
There once was a man dressed in
red,
Who most of the year stayed in
bed,
Then once a year,
He gathered some deer,
And delivered presents from his
sled.
Letter to Santa
By Carmen Carnochan

Dear Santa:
Thank you for giving all the joy to
me and my family last year. I hope

I would like a doll and a Polly
Pocket.

Christmas Colours
By Lynette LeGoff
Grade 8, McCurdy Public School
Poinsettias are red,
Pine trees are green,
These Christmas colours,
Are the best you have seen.
The snow is white,
The air is clear,
Listen very closely,
To the Christmas cheer.
The tinsel is silver,
The warm fire is gold,
As stories of Christmas,
Begin to unfold.
Glowing lights of pink,
Blue, orange and yellow,
Will make you think,
Of that jolly fellow.

T'was the Night on the
Farm
By Shawn Turner
Grade 3, Exeter Public School
T'was the night before Christmas,
When all over the farm,
Not a critter was stirring,
All through the barn.
The bales of hay were lined up in a
row,
In hopes that old St. Nicholas
would show,
The calves were all nestled,
All snug in their stall,
While visions of grain buckets
danced on the wall.
The cow in her pen,
The bull in his place,
All the animals were bedded down
and feeling safe.
As they woke in the morning,
And got to their feet,
To their surprise,
Was an extra treat!
Santa's Village
By Ben Heywood
Grade 4, Grand Bend P.S.
In Santa's village Mr. Claus, Mrs.
Claus, the reindeer and the elves
live at Santa's Village. They cook
and wash the dishes. They work all
the time all day long. The busiest
time is autumn. The reindeer have
their ears pierced and have bells to
use like earrings.
A Christmas Role
By Matthew Goodale
Grade 7, St. Patrick's School
Santa Claus rides his sleigh,
Delivering presents before the day,
Rudolph's nose shining bright,
Leading Santa through the night,
Santa happily smiles with glee,
At seeing every Christmas tree,
Santa looks upon his list,
To sec if any house he missed,
After checking over twice,
Santa lands upon some ice,
Santa has returned to the North
Pole,
He has playe,. his Christmas role.
Jesus
By Skylar Van Osch
Grade 4, Mt. Carmel
Jesus means justice,
Elizabeth is Mary's cousin,
St. Joseph adopted Jesus,
Unique is Jesus,
St. Nick gives out presents.
Christmas is fun on Jesus's birth-
day,
Holy day is on Sunday,
Rejoice on Christmas,
It's clear on Christmas,
Since 2000 years ago Christ was
born.
Treasure is Jesus.
Christmas Time Is
Coming
By Sarah ';'alley
Grade 8, McCurdy Public School
Christmas is in the air
Mothers wrapping presents with
care
Can you see it?
Can you feel it?
Christmas time is coming.
Santa's in every mall
Little girls wanting dolls
Snow flakes flying through the air
As you hear the christmas cheer
Christmas time is coming.
December brings happiness
Joyful songs and peacefulness
Christmas is loving, caring, hoping
and sharing,
Christmas time is coming.
Children hoping for toys
Parents wishing for no noise
Parents hiding away
The secrets Santa must play
Christmas time is here.
Frosty's Back!
By Sean Forrester
Grade 5, Grand Bend P.S.
It was a quiet Friday afternoon. I
had to stay inside today because it
was snowing outside. I don't know
why m brother got to go outside
and I didn't. I glanced out at the
window, and I saw my little brother
building a...Oh No! Not Frosty the
Snowman! This happened last year
too. You see when Frosty puts on a
magical prisoner cap he turns into
Arnold Snowanager!
Suddenly Frosty burst through
the door, again. "I'm back, you bet-
ter watch out, you better not cry,
Frosty's in town."
I dove towards the nearest phone
to call the police. "Hello, Police?
Frosty's back in town, get some
squad cars over heaaaahhh!" "Hel-
lo, son are you still there" Hello"
Hello?" The cops finally arrived.
"Frosty come out with your
hands up!" So Frosty, seeing that
there wasn't any way out, he gave
up. But they never did find the kid.

By Meghan Regier
Grade 7, Zurich Public School

The glee that spreads around the

Santa Is Coming to
Town
By Jordan Darling
Grade 3, Exeter Public School
Santa is coming to town,
Not one kid has a frown,
He's bringing lots of toys,
For little girls and boys,
He's putting them under the tree,
So everyone can see,
Your chimney better be clean,
Or Santa Claus is cream!
About Christmas
By Andrew Hartman
Grade 4, St. Boniface School
To me, the most important things
about Christmas are: We go to
Grandma's on Christmas and our
whole family is there. We pick
names and for whoever we pick,
we bring presents for Christmas.
Christmas Shopping
, By Wes de Lange
Grade 5, Stephen Central P.S.
I am going to Masonville on Fri-
day,
And I'll go to every store,
Just to make them happy,
To me it is a bore!
I'll get Holli a dolly,
It will be her favourite one,
And Cal a new penpal,
Then my shopping will be done!

Capsule Comments
with Ernie Miatello
Regular exercising early in life is like opening a
bank account. Later in life you enjoy the money
you put in when you were younger. So it is with
taking care of your body. Your later years will be
much healthier and enjoyable. You are never too
old to start saving and exercising.
This is a truly sharing time of year. But one thing you should not share
is your medications. Your arthritis pill may be good for you but deadly
to your friend. If they want you to share, recommend they see their doc-
tor and get their own medication.
Young adults have about 8000 taste buds, but as we age, nerve end-
ings begin to die and our taste buds number 6500 or less above the
age of 45. Older persons often require spicier food to make eating
more enjoyable.
In 1996, more people will stop smoking. Are you going to be one of
them?
On behalf of all the great staff of Huron Apothecary, I'd like to thank all
of you that allowed us the privilege of serving you throughout 1995. We
look forward to seeing you again in the new year. We wish everyone a
Happy and Healthy Holiday Season.
