PAGE FOUR GOLDSBORO HI NEWS December 9, 1938 There Came Wise Men From The East Saying-- A Gift For My Girl Cliristnias time is almost liere, And I am “up a tree.” I’ve got to get a Christmas gift For tlie girl I go to see. I don’t know what the girls like. They’re different from the boys. They don’t ^vant ties and socks and things, And they’ve grown too old for toys. Ma says she’d like some handker chiefs All nice and trimmed with lace. Sis says if it were her, she’d like Some powder for her face. But Ma and Sis are not much help. They just don’t understan’. They know nothing whatsoever ’Bout the feelings of a man. I’ll get my girl some candy All done up with a bow. That’s always been a favorite gift; She’ll like that, I know. —Sonny Boney, ’40.

The Forgotten Star The stars shone down that night in Bethlehem, As shepherds watched their flocks upon a hill So cold and bare. An angel said to them: “The Christ is born and sleeps in the manger still.” One star shown brighter than the rest on high, As shef)herds left their flocks to reach His side. They found their way by brilliant lighted sky. Unto the manger where the Baby cried. Somewhere today perhaps that star remains In a corner of heaven tucked away. And though it’s old and does not shine the same. Remembering the Baby in the fragrant hay. It does not mind this thing of grow ing old, But lives anew this story often told. —Margie Wooten, ’39.

Midway the block is the leading store, A place where shoppers spree. And pressed against the window are Noses of children, three. Their clothes are worn and tattered And their shoes are nearly gone. Their heads are bare and looks upon Their faces are forlorn. The largest of these children three Is a boy who’s nearly nine. And judging by his downcast face No presents will he find— When he on Christmas morn awakes And looks for Santa’s gifts. His shoulders shake—then suddenly— His face, his head, he lifts. He won’t find much, of that he’s sure, But didn’t mother say— If he was good that Santa Claus Would come on Christmas day? His sister who is nearly six. Her face is wistful too. She sees a doll with curly hair And sparkling eyes of blue. And little Jim is standing there. He’s just a mite past four, “Gee. Bob and Jane,” he says to them, “It’s awful to be poor.” Three cold noses, pressed so hard, Against the window glass. Eyes so intent on lovely things. FOR CHRISTMAS SHEAFFER PENS WHITMAN’S CANDIES PERFUMES - TOILET SETS Andrews Drug Store Tlie Store of Prices BALL PARK SERVICE STATION Fresh Bar-B-Cue and Sandwiches The Latest Recordings They see no lady pass— All dressed in furs and having The assured look of wealth. And when she looks—she sees their faces, Her kind heart quickly melts. “Poor ragged little children— For no presents will they get. But wait, perhaps old Nick Will come and give them something yet.” She goes to Bob, the boy that’s nine, And asks, “Who are you, son?” He tells her “My name’s Bob Black/' And she says “I’m Mrs. Sloane. I’m looking for a little boy, A girl and two small boys— I’m Santa Claus’ messenger And Santa sends you toys. If you’ll just tell me where you live. I’m sure on Christmas morn You’ll wake to find that Santa’s left A train, some toys and horns.” The look upon the poor child’s face Was one of tranquil joy, The lady thought she’d never seen A pleased and happier boy. He told her where he lived—then— Looking at the sky, He said, “It’s getting late and I must go, Thanks lots, good-bye.” The children trudge the long way home And tell with great delight, Their meeting with the Mrs. Sloane, And were their faces bright? Their mother put the three to bed And then sat down to wait. For Mrs. Sloane, she didn’t come. The clock showed it was late. She rose from her squeaky rocking chair And turning out the light. She suddenly started—who could that be Thumping her door tonight? A whisper low—“May I come in? It’s I—it’s Mrs. Sloane— I’ve come to try and help you have Some Christmas in your home.” Mrs. Black swings wide the door (Please turn to page eight) REST WHEN TIRED Colonic Flush : Vapor Baths WHISPERING CEDARS REST HOME 5-10-25C STORE SAVINGS FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
