FAREWELL WINTER
“WE SHOULD MISS YOU”
Oh. Jack, you are a good friend To all the world around. Even though you do put The powder on the ground. You play upon my window And make it look so nice, But when the sun comes out It melts away the ice. Now I wonder what we’d do . If Jack did not appear, I am sure we all would think ■ That winter was not here, —AILEEN TOMLINSON A. 8., A.8.H., L.8.H., P.8.H., Brookside R.M.D,
DON’T YOU KNOW
As we run along to school, Jack Frost sits beside his pool, Says he, “Ha! Ha! children dear, Don’t you know that winter’s here? Time for sport and time for fun. Come with me for a skip and run.” —BETTY FOLEY (aged 10), Morven.
Jack Frost does some very good work , because he breaks the soil and kills the interfering grubs. —AILEEN TOMLINSON, Brookside.
“BE PREPARED!”
He delights our fingers and toes to nip, He delights our pipes to burst. So now, my friends, I will give you a tip. Be prepared for the worst! —THERESE TANGNEY (aged 13), Morven.
