Little evergreen learns a lesson Pamela Morrison Tree knows all By PAMELA MORRISON Blyth Public School Grade 3 The Christmas tree .will feel happy when the children feel happy. It likes to be decorated. It knows when children are get- ting at their presents and their sister and brother and mother and father's presents. We put the Christmas tree in a stand, and on the top of the tree we put an angel. - By ERICA CLARK Blyth Public School Grade 3 Once upon a time I was a little evergreen tree. I was so happy because it would soon be Christmas. Soon I heard some footsteps coming toward me. I could see five people corning toward me. There were three children. One was climbing a tree. The father said, "I guess we will have to make a tree. Wait., I think I see just the tree we are looking for. It is just the right size. We will saw this one down." "Ow, ouch, ouch, ouch! — Oh that hurts, but I'm glad to have a sled ride. Oh, this is fun. "Hey, where are they taking me now? Awww, its nice to be in some dirt again. Why do they have to put all these things on me? I guess it is because they want me to look pretty for Christmas." They are lucky having all those good things to eat.

Lonely tree picked, By CARRIE ANSLEY Blyth Public School Grade 3 Once upon a time, there was a tree. A lonely tree, because all the other trees did not like him. So they called him names, and he felt sad. Then the day came when it was almost Christmas, and all the trees were ex- cited. A truck came and took the little tree. Arid the other trees were sad, because they were not picked and they did not want the tree to go. So they learned their lesson.. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

By KIMBERLEY RICHMOND Blyth Public School Grade 3 Once when I was just a little evergreen I was talking to the older evergreens. I was asking them how they got so tall. They answered "In a few years you will be about as tall as this too. Any more questions?" "Yes, one more, how old do you have to be to become a Christmas tree". • I.n a few years he was as tall as the other trees. Then the evergreen's wish came true. Some people came and chose him. He was very happy until they started to cut him down. But after he got to the place where they' ,lived, they put him in a painted pail with water in it. Pauline asked her Dad when they were going to put the decorations on the Christmas tree. Her Dad said, "In a few minutes."
