Eden I i u J What I Would Like Most for Xmas The sun was just setting. We were sitting on the front porch, when mother said “Well, dear, what would you like for Christmas this year?” “Oh, I don’t know,” I replied. “There are so many things to choose from.” “Well, we’ll leave it till tomorrow. There’s no hurry.” Just then Rory came over and called out: “I say, let’s come and have a game of tennis before tea." “Can’t,” said I. “I haven’t a racquet, and besides, I haven’t played for ages." “Oh, that’s all right. I’ll lend you one, and you’ll soon get into the swing of it again.” So off we went. One hour later two red and excited children burst into the house. "We’ve had a ripping set, Mum," I called. “I’ve decided already. Please, may I have a racquet for Christmas?” —“Colleen.” November 30th of this year is the day set aside for our proficiency examination. I have two big sisters, and they have promised that if I get my proficiency certificate they will buy me a gold wristlet watch for Christmas. I have been wanting a watch for a long time, and, of course, am very anxious to pass my examination. I am at present working hard on home lessons, and do hope to be successful. We have our school break-up on December 17th, and after the prizes are handed out we have a concert and dance, so I hope the result of the examination is out by then, and if I get my watch I will be able to wear it for the concert. Winning the watch is, therefore, my earnest wish for Christmas. — "June.” h When did the lamp-stand? When it heard the gas-pipe.
