Transformer is best gift By Darryl Mayberry Grade 5 Hullett Central School I feel that my Greatest Gift of all is when I got my transformer. I found That I could transform it into four different things. It was my Greatest yet. It was just what I wanted. I kept my room clean and I hoped a lot. I helped with the dishes and I hoped a lot. I baked cookies and I went to bed on time without any one having to yell at me and I hoped some more. Then on Christmas morning, I was the first one up. It was still dark outside but I knew Sanata had been here because the cookies and milk were gone. I ran down stairs, and there it was. It was the greatest gift of all. Best gift of all is love from the heart By Jason P. Van Dorp Grade 5 Hallett Central School My greatest gift of all is the love that flows through mankind's hearts. My mom and pop that care for me. My hamster that sleeps all day and runs and plays all night. My dog that plays with me. And also Christmas when Jesus Christ the Holy son of God was born.

Milena & Bill Lobb HOLMSVILLf ........ ....... �P6 CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1987—Page 19A special gifts for dad By Tanya Barter Grade 8 Holmesville Public School My dad is very special to me; That's why he deserves the best He's always there when I need him, And he'll always be my friend. So when I give a gift to him, It must match all these standards, But the only gift I found for him, Is simply a hug and kiss! By Anna Shephard Grade 8 Holmesville Public School On my way to the store, I thought of what I could buy. "A sports car would be nice," I said to myself as I looked up into the sky. "What am I saying? I can't afford one of those. Maybe I could just get him a pretty red rose," But he wouldn't like that though, I know. "Dads are hard to buy for," I said as I kicked some snow. Another idea could be tickets to a concert, I thought. I remembered last year what I bought. No way, I'm not going to get him that again. All it was, was a plain old pen. I've got it, I'll give him this. A great, big, fat, juicy kiss!!" By Peter Scott Grade 8 Holmesville Public School I would like to give Dad a new car for Christmas. It would be really fast and have a stereo and color TV. Dad would like it to be long, low and painted candy -apple red. Real leather interior and walnut dash board with digital guages would complete his dream car. Also I'd like to get him a Braun electric shaver. I would get him a new suit and a new leather brief case too. I would get him an ap- ple II computer and a water bed. I would also like to send him on a first class flight to Jamaica for two weeks and put him up in the most expensive hotel. But, I don't have enough money, so I'll probably just make him a card, or draw him a picture, and give him a hug and he'll be just as happy. By Michael Bruinsma Grade 8 Holmesville Public School On Christmas Eve I gave my dad an ex- cellent gift. You see, I rented a chauffeur - driven limo from London for only $50 an hour. It had a TV, a telephone, and a bar in it. Ever since, he's been driving around town and acting cool as if he is 20 years old. It seems to have been good for him. It has put him in the Christmas spirit. This might put him in the mood for sharing the car with his son. "Michael, wake up! Don't you want to open your gifts?" It was Mom calling. Too bad! I guess it was just a dream. "Well, Dad, here's my gift to you. It's not a Limo, it's just a bottle of cologne. I guess it's the thought that counts." By Andy De Putter Grade 8 Holmesville Public School I wanted to give him a gift, A gift of mental value, So I searched and searched All over the world, For the perfect gift, For a perfect Dad. The gift was black, With four large wheels, And a V6 engine, It was very large, As large as a shack, And very, very expensive. by Krista Dalzell Grade 8 Holmesville Public School The night is cool as I sit by the window, Snowflakes frosting its glass, Hot chocolate is warmth in my hand, A gift for you I do not have. A gift for you is hard to find. For it is to be so special, A gift with money I will not buy, But a gift, you'll never guess. There will not be red wrapping paper, Nor a big green bow, But a gift for you, oh daddy dear, A gift we both can share. And as this special day grows close, And as we all rejoice, A gift for you, oh daddy dear, The gift of love we share. The Staff at W.G. Thompson & Sons Ltd. extend a special Thank -you to all our good friends and patrons for your confidence, loyalty and support... a very Merry Christmas to all and all the best in '88!
