CHRISTMAS EVE. On Christmas night we go to bed, And hang our stockings at our head; Father Christmas he will creep, And have a peep at us asleep. He fills our stockings very full, With a gun' for John and a big rubber hull; Beads for Margaret, a doll for Joan, While Bill the dog gets only a bone. —2 marks to Cousin Blanche Mclnnes (9), Duke street.
