The Star of Bethlehem
By EVELYN POKRZYVA
Many many years ago before
you or I were born, even before
grandmother of grandfather was
born, mother moon lived up in
heaven with her children, the stare.
She would beam down on th*
world giving light so all would not
tx in datkness.
The little stars eame out at night
with mother moon and twinkled
brightly as Uiey looked down on
the world. They were happy stars,
that is all but one and he was sad
H? shined so brightly that mother
moon would not let him come out.
He often asked mother moon to
let him go out with the rest of the
stars but she always smiled and
said, "No. you hpve a mission to
perform some day. Bight now you
are too bright, but one day your
brightness will make you great."
This did not make the star any
happier. He even tried to shine
dimmer but the dimmer he tried
to shine, the brighter he got. He
was indeed the saddest star in all
the heavens.
One night mother moon called
and told him that he pould go out.
"J have a special Job for you,"
she told him. "In the city of David
in BftUrfce* a ckild is bora who
will be King over all men. I want
you ta ga out and shine your
brightest and lead the wiumea aad
shepherds to him."
Happily the star shooe its bright
est and made a path of light for
the wisemeo and shepherds to fol
low. Then he hung himself above
the stable where the child lay and
shope brightly so that all who saw
him would know of the coming of
the Christ Ckild.
The star wis no tooger sad be
cause he knew that he really had
heep creat?d lor a special (oisgiw
and ke had done bis job well. To
day we know the star as the one
that shone many many Christ
ipases ago op the nljibt the Christ
Child was born and laid in the
manger. We call it The Star of
Bethlehem.

Santa Claus
By EVEI.YN POKRZYWA
Santa Claus is dressed in red,
A re(i and white cap upon his head,
His boots are of black and so is his belt,
And all are lined with the finest felt.
He has a white beard and twinkling eyes,
And he likes all kinds of cakes and pies.
He is not very tall but is always jolly,
His nose is as red as q berry on holly.
He drive* a sleigh with a reindeer team,
And rain or shine he comes just the same.
To be sure, he has some dolls and a book,
And little stoves that really cook.
He has little trucks that really run,
And cowboy suits and a little gun.
He hM fruits and nuts ?nd capdi' too,
Enough for me and enough for you.
He has little bells that go ding-a-ling.
And little birds that really sing.
For to Santa Claus it will be a pleasure
To bring you gifts that you will treasure.
So early to bed and turn off the light
Santa will be coming on Christmas night,
To fill yoqr stockings with Ipts of toys,
And your little hearts with Yuletide joys.
