All the goodies tasty and sweet. Winter comes but once a year. But don't forget, spring's nearly here. David Wes toot 150 Morgan Wright '51 A Winter Day The snow startod falling late one night; It settled over tho country so very light. In the early morning the sun camo out; And the children began to run and shout: They ran and played in the snow all day; u And at night they were ready to hit the hay . The children ate supper early that night; For them, winter time was a certain delight. As they climbed the stairs, ready for bed; They heard the wind whistle overhead. When each knelt down to say his prayer , He thanked the Lord for boing there. James Messier ’58 Naturos‘s Routine From a hilltop ir the country, watching night descend, one can see noturo going through hor routino of night, day, sunsets, dusks, and dawn. Tho sun, brilliant in its fcoauty, 3inks slowly behind a pux-plo mountain and disappears, -her, dusk is upon us; the world suddenly turns gray« snow blan- kets the hills and roads protectively. The tight of each farmhouse, the lights of each born go on. Anu too conry31.de is dotted with tiny bursts of golden sequins. The moon suow.Ly ascends the opposite sky from whore the six foil, and takes its roign, until the dawn pulls tho shade of night up to ? new day. T inita Lallo '50

Joy of Christmas 7. Christmas is coming soon. With every one in tune- Presents hanging high and low- Candles flaming with a glow; Gifts for everyone in sight Not one is left alone. Darkness creeps into the night; Everyone whisks out of sight. Soon Santa comes and lifts Prom his bock so many gifts. He loavos before tho family wakes. To visit more houses before morning breaks. Morning comes with Christmas day. For the happy family, spirited and gay. Richard Westcot '59 Christmas Christmas is a time of fun and joys That comes but, once a year When all receive gifts end toys, And all are full of cheer, Santa works day or.d night Rushing for this great day. It•s a good thing he s not tight”; He gives out gifts in such a way. Each year Christmas comes nnd goes For tots and adults too; Soon we are back on our toes With much more work to do. Betty Myott ’58 A Poem? Writing a poem is not for me, I!ll leave my verses for the bee. When a teacher asks for one, I am able to chink of none. Now it’s no wonder, I make a blunder; •nd since I can’t think. I’ll take a wink. Lawrence Myott ’62
