Inside the candle glowed so bright, Outside the wind howled in the night. The homes were filled with good cheer, Merry Christmas and a happy new year. Christmas By Stacey Case Grade 6, Stephen Central P.S. Christmas is a time for caring, And a time for sharing. Christmas is a time for hugging, And a time for loving. Christmas is a time for presents, Or a time for pheasants. Christmas is a time for girls, And a time for boys. It is a time for joy!

The Christmas Family By Samantha McKay Grade 3, Exeter Public School One day it was Christmas for the mouse family. All the little mice were hanging their stockings by the chimney. They were all happy be- cause today was Christmas eve. All the little mice were named Jane Smarts. The family were all putting up the Christmas tree, and the Dad- dy mouse said, "time for bed." "We will go to bed", said Smart. But Jane didn't want to go to bed, but she did. She wanted to see Santa. In bed she could hear footsteps. She said, "Santa" and she ran out the door. But it was only her mom and dad. Her mom and dad said, "Why are you out of bed?" "I thought you were Santa." "Go back to bed." "When is Santa coming?" asked Jane. Mom said, "He is coming at 12:00 a.m." "Oh, okay, bye." Smart started snoring. 7.77. Jane said "Smart be quiet!". "Why?" "Be- cause Santa will hear you." Smart said, "Santa's here." "No he is not. But he will be back at 12:00 a.m.," said Jane. "Oh good night, 777.7", said Smart. Jane had a scary dream. It was about her mom going away to Africa. Jane yelled, "Ahhh!" Her mom and dad came running in the door. "What is the matter?" they asked. "I had a dream about mom and she died," said Jane. Mom said, "No I did not die, I'm here." "Mom you are alive," said Jane. "No I'm not dead," said mom. "Yes you are," said mom. "Shh" said the Dad. Then Jane went to bed. the next morning Jane and Smart went downstairs and opened their presents. Then they said, "Thank you Jesus for the nice gift." Christmas By Steve Guenther Grade 8, Zurich Public School This time of year is for a lot of cheer, We have this cheer because of the time of year, We open our presents that are un- der the tree, We find something in them and then yell yippee.

C__ I I � _ Times -Advocate, December 20, 1995 Page 31 Christmas By Ryan Denomime Grade 3, St: Boldface School Christmas is a time of year when time is spent and laughter is heard, Presents are brought from Santa and friends, When hot cocoa is served and Christmas cakes too. The sight of Christmas lights and greeting signs, But most important of all is Jesus' birthday. Mary M other of Jesus A loving, caring woman R ode on a donkey to Bethlehem Y es, not a sinner. Baby Jesus By Tonya Westman Grade 7, St. Patrick's School In Bethlehem, so long ago, In a manger, we all know, A child was born that wondrous night, And in the sky a star shone bright. Three wise men came travelling far, Bearing gifts they followed the star, They reached the stable where Je- sus lay, And praised the Lord on that fine day, He gave his Son, our Lord above, To teach us to live in the glory of his love.
