THE SAINT JO TIIBUNI; FRIDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1941
a Neighbor Town Zoo, And spent
all those long hours, Bringing gifts
and cheer to you.
Oh, well; Let him rest. His
dreams will be sweet, He knows
all those Rats, will not be there to
eat; Or run o'er his bed, and all
'round his feet; In the Kitchen
and Pantry, no trace will be found
The rats are all gone; They'll nee'r
make a sound.
But Hark! In his dreams. There
comes a sweet note, Could it be
The Pied Piper, was blowing his
fulte? A bell peals the air, More
Bells! I declare! And Smith is a-
wake, arid hastens to share; With
all Saint Jo, And for miles all a-
round; They come to the Churches,
as they hear that sweet sound;
The Bells of Saint Mary, makes
a Grand, Glorious Refrain, As!
Silent Night, Holy Night, follows
its strain The words from the book, I
of all books are then read, "The |
birth of a Saviour; that came to
redeem us." it said.
His birth was at Christmas; so
fitting it seems, Although, in a
war torn world, all of strife; Where
all Nations are fighting, with
swords, guns and knife, It's a
time for Rejoicing, and praising
again, So join in the Chorus, "Hark,
The Herald Angels Sing" "Peace on
Earth, Good Will to Men."

were all twinkles. The young folk
were merry, The old folks with
wrinkles, Were happy and jolly,
all gay and all funny, For there
was not, One Rodent, Not even a
Bunny.
But look! There a House, all
dark, not a sound: Who is it, that's
sleeping, The clock all around?
Smith Pedigo? Really! Could it be
true? That he played Old Santa,
The Whole Long Night Through?
He; As a Citizen of good stand-

He borrowed some Reindeer from
Plan Christmas
Dinner Menu Now
COLLEGE STATION—It's time
to be planning the Christmas din-
ner.
If a homemaker hasn't already
made her fruit cake, that should
be first on the list, according to
Hazel Phipps, specialist in food pre-
paration for the A&M College Ex- %
tension Service. Next, families who
don't reise their own turkeys will
need to consider whether they'll
buy one, and if so, what size it
will be. Ordinarily, the homemaker
should allow three-fourths to one
pound of turkey per person, so a
12 pound turkey would serve 12 to
16 people.
No matter what size is selected
the turkey should be cooked at a
low temerature, for that keeps the
meat tender, the specialist explains.
From 300 to 325 degrees F. is usu-
ally best, with 275 degrees F. rec-
ommended for turkyes weighing j
over 14 pounds.
For a dinner that's different Miss I
Phipps suggests substituting cran- j
berry salad for the traditional |
cranberry sauces
