There was a mother who was young And a father who was old And five poor little children I To whom stories were never told. DICHVALE DUBLIC SCHOOL The father worked from day to night Trying to catch thv fishes The mother worked at a busy hotel Washing and drying the dishes. 1 l l These are the names of the child- ren Frances, Tom, Bill Ed and Roy Who would be willing to share Just one small little toy. Then came the night of Christmas When they were tucked in bed Santa came down the chimney All dressed in white and red ‘When landing he made such a noise Everyone rose from their bed And when the children saw him You can’t imagine what they said. He filled their stockings right up to the brim Then turned around and gave each a wish The children should have plenty ot toys | And the father will catch more fish. Then he sat down and told them stories He told them of Jesus the child And of his mother, blessed Mary Who Was gentle, meek and mild. Now that poor family has turned rich And the father no longer fishes For he is too old, but his wife Makes ninety dollars a week doing dishes- -â€" Pauline Paul.
