SOPHOMORE LITERATURE TWINKLE TOES Twinkle Toes was a very pretty fairy, but no one liked her. It was because she had the worst disposition of all the fairies. . . It was near Christmas and all the fairies were buying presents. Everyone was laugh- ing and singing, but Twinkle Toes didn't see anything to laugh about, so she just sat around. Her best friend, Babe, asked her what she wanted for Christmas. She just looked mad and didn't tell her. She wasn't giving any- one anything and didn't expect anything herself. She did want something, but wanted no one to know. It was a comb to comb her long blonde hair. She had seen the one she wanted in the Bee Hive window. It was red with little firellies on it. It cost a lot of honey and she didn't have enough stored up. She almost wished she hadn't been so rude to Babe but she chased the thought away. It was t.he night of the big party. Santa came and all the fairies got gifts. Twinkle Toes knew she wasn't getting anything so she didn't bother to go. It was held in the old milk bottle, where all the events were held. They were preparing for the party. Fire- flies were taking their places on the ceiling as lights. The cricket string quartet was get- ting warmed up, and all looked pretty good. When the time came, everyone was squeez- ing into the old milk bottle. Twinkle Toes just sat by the door and listened. Someone came to get her. She had a gift. She acted as if she didn't want it, though she did. She opened it and found the comb she had seen in the Bee Hive. Everyone was wondering what she was going to say. She didn't know what to do! She ran to Babe and started to cry. She said how much she had missed by being a grouch. When they saw she was really sorry and had Christmas spirit., they made a circle and sang, For she's a jolly good Fairy. From then on, she joined in all the games. She was crowned Queen of the Fairies and soon became the most popular fairy in Fairyland. PAT SIMPSON '60 The Fir Tree, The Deer, and The Spruce Tree Many years ago, there was a young deer who lived in the deep, deep forest. The deer was a very lonely deer, and the only friend she had was a little fir tree. Every day after breakfast, she went to the little tree to lie down. She would tell the tree of the hunter ihe had watched and how frightened she had een. One day late in December, she went to the little tree, as usual, and what did she see but a little old man, chopping the tree down! She leaped under the bushes and watched as the fir tree was dragged through the snow out of the woods. The sorrowful little deer followed the man out of the woods at a discreet distance, be- ing careful not to step on any twigs that would betray her. After a time, the man came to a small house. He was greeted by a jolly white- haired old lady. As they went in and closed the door, the deer carefully walked to the house and peered through the window. She saw her friend being placed near the win- dow. Red, green, and blue objects were be- ing decked upon the tree. Fearing that she might be seen, she scam- pered back into the forest. As night came, she began to think of ways she could save her little friend. She decided that she would have to go to the house every day. So with this in her mind, she fell asleep. The next day, when she went to the house, she found many lights in t.he windows. As she looked in one of them, her friend, the fir tree, winked happily at her through her sparkling lights. The deer turned and leaped gleefully back home. The sound of beautiful music and chimes awoke the deer early the next morning. She leaped to her feet and raced to the house. There she saw children excitedly opening pretty packages. The fir tree blinked her sparkling lights at the little deer and she knew at once that the fir tree was happy to be a part of this festive occasion. The little deer felt happiness for the fir tree, but now loneliness crept into her heart for the loss of her good friend. She sadly went back to the forest, scarcely seeing ahead of her, for the tears were blinding her eyes. The branches of a tree brushed her neck and she quickly glanced to see what was touching her. There stood a young blue spruce spreading its branches sympathetical- ly towards the little deer. The deer queried, Why haven't I seen you before ? Because, the blue spruce replied, a beautiful, stately fir tree has over-shadowed me all my life. It was cut down for a Christ- mas tree yesterday. From that day on, the proud spruce tree and the little deer became good friends and never parted. MARGARET JEFFERY '60 WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF- Pat or Margaret flunked a course? Harold couldn't argue? Bonnie and Sharon didn't sell candy? Hazel couldn't do English assignments? Malcolm couldn't play basketball? Stretch won an Academy Award? Mr. Lapointe couldn't drive a car? Maurice had a crew cut? Priscilla hated all boys?
