Love to chawnk green apples an' go swimmin' in the lake Hale to take the castor-He they give for belly-ache! 'Mozt all the time, the whole year round, there ain't no flies on me, But jest 'fore Christmas I'm cs goto" as I kin be! Cot a yeller dog named Sport, sick him on the cat; First thing she knows sfie doezn't know where she is at! Cot a clipper sled, an' wher us kids goes out to slide, 'Long comes the grocery carf, an' we all hook a ride! But sometimes when the grocery man is worrited an' cross, He reaches at us with his whip, an' larrups up his boss. An' then I laff an' holler. "Oh, ye never teched ME!" But test 'fore Christmas I'm as good as I kin be.', Cran'ma says she hopes that when I git to be a man, I'll be a missionarer like her oldest brother, Oan, As was el up by the canmbuls that lives in Ceylon's Isle, Where every prospeck pleases, an' only man is vile! But gran'mo she has never been to see a Wild West show, Nor read the Lite of Oantel Boone, or else I guess she'd know That BuS'lo Bill and cow-boys is good enough for me! fXCfP' iest 'fore Christmas, when I'm good cs I kin bo! i And then old Sport he hangs around,' so sciemn-lifce on' still His eyes fhey keep O'Sayin' "What's the matter, little Bill?" The old cat sneaks down off her perch" an' wonders what's become Of them fwo enemies of hern that used lo moke fhings hum! But I am so perfife an' 'tend so earnestly to biz, That mother says to father. "How improved our Willie is!" Put father, havin' been a boy hisself, suspicions me When jest 'fere Christmas, I'm as good as I kin be! For Christmas, with its lots an' lots of candies, cakes an' toys, Was made, they say, for proper kids an' not tor naughty boys; So wash yer face on' bresh yer hair, an'nind yer p's an' q's, An' don't bust out yer pantaloons, an' don't wear out yet shoes; Say "Vessum" fo fhe ladies, on' "Vessur" lo 'he men. An' when they' company, don'f pass yer plate for pie again,- . But, thinking of the thing yer'd like to see upon lhat tree, Jest, 'fore Christmas be cs good as yer kin be! ' , Copyright.

Too, slow cooking in a 300 decree F. oven is the secret to a juicy bird. Grease the turkey well with unsalted fat. Salt on the skin will blister it and cause the juices to ooze out.

May we have the kind of Christmas where we want to te at home with our families. May we not forget to be thankful for our many blessings, and to be mindful of those less fortunate than we are.
