n «. uh Wi To all good people far and near, Lwish a Happy Christmas And a bright New Year, The herd-man with his cattle, The hunter on the plain, The soldier far in foreign lands, Will think of home again. The sailor in his tossing bunk, The airman in his ’plane, They one and all will hear the call, And think of home again. The tramper lying in the bush. Will'watch'the big white star. The lonely plodding wanderer in Arctic regions far. They all will think of their loved homes, No matter where they are. To all the people far and near, I wish a Happy Christmas And a bright New Year. —ELIZABETH O’RORKE, (aged 12), A. 8., L.8.H., . Lake Coleridge. m ■3 Oq Christmas Eve I go to bed I think of'how we will pTay lovely thoughts in my head. With all the toys on Christmas Day. ■ —PAULINE HEALEY (aged 5), .15 Tonks street, North Beach..
