So 1 went outside and saw a !tole evergreen tree and so I cut it down and brought it insidc.(but 1 was only 4) It was getting din all over and it wouldn't stand up, 90 I put morn's flower out of the pot and pat the tree in the pot and the flower where the tree was outside. I decorated the tree from the decorations on the walls. Then I looked at the time and it was 12:48. I heard something come in the door so 1 looked to see who it was, and it was Santa. So I hid behind the couch as he came in, gave out the pressents and went out again. I decided to go to bed and stay there until morning because of that hard night I just had. In the morning I woke up and opened all of my pressents. After that mom said "I wonder how that tree got in the pot insted of the flower?"

CHRISTMAS Christmas started when Mary and Joseph went to Bethlehem into a stable, where Mary gave birth to the Christ Child, Jesus in a manger. Then three wise men saw a star and decided to follow it. It just so hap- pened that baby Jesus was laying directly below the star. The three men brought gifts of gold, incense, and myrrh. That time of year has come again, when we remember Jesus' birth. Now is the time when kids get out of school for holidays, and go home and have snowball fights with their family and friends. It is also the time of giving and sharing with one another. People start hanging all of their decorations for the holiday. They get into the spirit by hanging their brightly colored lights outside, putting up the tree, and getting all of their Christmas baking done, and by joining all of the other people in the rush to get their shopping done. Families and friends gather together at Christmas to socialize and to exchange gifts with one another. On Christmas Eve at our house my whole family goes to church with each other, then after we all go back to our house and sit around the tree and talk. I like that because you get a chance to talk with your brothers and sisters that you usually don't see. Out of all the seasons I like Christmas season best. - By Dave Middegaal, Grade 8, St. James School SANTA'S FALL One snowy Christmas eve after- noon at Santa Claus's workshop the elves were very busy finishing up the toys for the girls and boys. They had almost everything ready. Santa was just finishing making sure everything was ready. it was almost night now and Santa had most of his things in side of his sleigh. He hadn't ate much all day so he could eat the things the boys and girls left for him. The sleigh was all packed and ready to go. Mrs. Claus gave him a kiss and he went off. After a while they came into worse weather then it had been. All of a sudden the reindeer had to turn quick and Santa fell off thc sleigh. Luckely the reindeer swooped down and saved him. He got back in his sleigh and headed off to give the boys and girls their presents. - By Stephanie MacDonald, Grade 5, Seaforth Public School SANTA'S NiGHIT One snowy night santa delivering presents when he came to a house.

When he was going down the chimney he tvirriM his hum on the coals and said "Owch"1 Then he was puting the presents under the Christmas tree, he fell into the tree and brock the Christmas tree and said 1 am never coming to this house again. By Jason M. Grade 5, Seaforth Public School. was IS SANTA COMING? Last February Elizabeth Cooper's parents were in a tragic car ac- cident, causing both of them to die. Elizabeth was not in the car but visitmg her grandmother when the accident occured. Elizabeth's only relative was her grandmother, and she was to old to look after Elizabeth, and so a few months later Elizabeth was sent to Toronto orphanage. It took a few weeks for her to feel comfortable with the other orphans she was only seven. Christmas was approaching and Elizabeth was worried that Santa was not going to come, because the ophange did not have a chimney for snata to get in. Then a few days later the Dinsmor family came, wanting to adopt a baby girl. The orphanage did not have any babies at the time, so the guardian of the orphange suggested that they should think about taking home Elizabeth. The family met Elizabeth and couldn't leave her wonderful at- titude towards life, even though she had already been through enought pain. The family adopted her the next day and Elizabeth was so excited that someone wanted to take her home. Within a few weeks Elizabeth had grown to love her new parents, Deborah and James. The Dinsmors treated her kindly and they too loved her very much. Christmas Eve came and she had no more worries about Santa not coming. The next morning she woke up and was overwhelmed about the number of presents that Santa had brought her. From that Christmas on all her Christmas's were full of joy and happiness. And yes Elizabeth, Santa is really coming.... - by Kelly Rau, Michelle Etue, Grade 8, St. James. RALPH'S CHRISTMAS One Christmas Eve there was a mouse sitting in front of his fireplace. He was excited because Santa Claus would be coming tonight. So he went to bed early and if he went to sleep he wouldn't open his eyes until Christmas mor- ning. If Ralph opened his eyes, the odd time he couldn't get back to sleep. This was one of these times. So Ralph just laid ther thinking. Then he thought and said "I know what I forgot, I forgot to put my stocking up." So he ran downstairs to hang up his stocking but before you could say angels he heard bells. So he just got into bed and pretended that he was sleeping. Then someone came down the chimney and put some presents under his Christmas tree. Santa saw the stocking and he looked in his sack to see if there was a thing to hang up a stocking and there was. In the morning Ralph woke up and saw presents everywhere. - by Angie Maloney, Grade 3, St. Columban. CHRISTMAS DAY aii1111111111 IS. illIC n cart, ahem vesad ains to short.
