Dec. 22, 1973 Christmas used to be happier Peace On Earth Good Will Toward Men Christmas, once long ago, was a time of merriment, a time where people had fun and made fun for others also. It was a time where all the family, and some relatives would all come together and enjoy being with one another. Everyone looked forward to Christmas with fun and happiness which thea' would be willing to share with others. To many it was feasting, dancing and merry making, all done in an old- fashioned welcoming way. But, today. to some, Christ- mas is .a time of sadness, sorrow and sympathy. Some homes break up due to too much merry -making. Sometimes' drink mixed with snow, ire and carelessness 4auses several accidents during this holiday season. If you believe,. in Santa Claus, at least as a spirit, you should always be able to find some happiness in Christmas and he able to understand its true meaning. Jesus was ,horn on this day.'

Goderich Discount Bill Lougt'eed Peace On. Earth, Good Will to AH Men C is for Christmas. Not only a time to give and receive gifts but also for the feeling or the spirit of the .season. What would our Christmases be like if we placed our gifts around the television stand, or found the cake and milk still sitting untouched, by the hearth, or saw only silver aluminum Christmas trees standing in the midst of a pool of presents? C is also for Christ the.Lord, the one. to whom this festive season is dedicated. We remem- ber that Joseph could not find a place for Mary to give birth to the,iSavior, so they went toa stable and the babe was born in a manger and the Wise Men and Shepherds came to behold him in the manger. Do you really have Peace on earth, goodwill to men, or is -it just a popular expression to signify the festive season? - •Jason Ainslie Grade tf •,_ Robertson Memorial I love Grid And he loves me If everybody loved How happy I'd he On Christmas day Christ was horn And people 'grew closer In a very fond way Christ- was horn On Christmas day. Theresa Osborn, Grade 4 St. Mary's School Peace on Earth Good Will to all Men Christmas comes but once a year, Bringing with it children's cheer, For gifts and toys and Christ- mas trees, And snowflakes brought on icy breeze, And family gatherings of love and joy, And each man, woman, girl and boy, But give some thought this Christmas season;- To why it comes that special reason, For long ago one blessed morn, A very special child wa's barn, VVral)ped in swaddling clothes h_ e lav, In a manger filled with hay. Wisemen travelled„from afar, Guided by the shining star, While angels bade the shepherds go, And see the holy child also, And when they came upon the child, They found' his mother by his side. And there he lay in peace and love, While angels watched him from above. So think not just of gift and tin•, But of that very special job•, That should, create a peaceful .hind For everyone, for all mankind. Sandra Grade 8 r Dear Santa; I will leave you -some milk and cookies. I will leave you ,some snowflakes 'cause I can make them. Thank you for the presents you brought me last year. I hope you have a fun time giving presents to girls and boys. We will see you at the Christ- mas Concert.

Please get me a toy calf. How is the reindeer doing? How-., is Mrs. Santa Claus doing'? Patrick Frayne Kindergarten St. Joseph's School Kingsbridge If I were Santa Claus I would tell my elfs to make diffrnt toys and I would read all the let- ters. When the elfs were finished I would put a card on the toy that the child wanted. On the card I would put the child's name. Then when Christmas night camel loaded all the toys on the sled and I said Rodalf, pracer, Vickson and so on and I'd be on my happy jerny.
