OKI WfcAK a FOR GIFTS holiday strife, And was planum to sleep for the rest of my life. When up from the aiishaft there came such a clatter I leaped out of bed to see what was the matter; (I thought at the time 'twas a nut down one flight, Who up his radio late ev'ry night); So 1 went to the window and loudly did cry, "Is this Christmas Eve or the Fourth of July?" When what to my dead-with-sleep eyes did appear But a hinky-dink sleigh and eight tiny reindeer! And who should be drivin' right up to the door But one of them masquerade guys from the store! I said to myself, "What can be this nut's game?" When'he clucked his reindeer and called 'em by name: "Now Dasher! Now Dancer! Now Prancer! Now Vixen! On Comet! On Cupid! On Donncr and Bliten!" An' just as I'm dopin' what next he will do, Right up to the housetop the whole outfit flew! And then in a twinklin' I heard on the roof The prancin' an' pawnin' of meat on the hoof; (Just imagine my feelings, with sleep nearly dead Ami some sap with an ANIMAL ACT As I drew in my neck' and was luriiiu' around, Down the chimney my visitor came with a bound; A big bag of junk he displayed with a grin, And he acted to me like he'd like to move in. He was hubby, good Matured and oozin' with glee, But I ask you, dear reader, what was it to me? The point that I make is 'twas then 2 o'clock And a man in my room without stoppin' to knock! was thinkin' how noivy he was and how slick When he says to me, "Lady, I'm only St. Nick." Well, a poor tired store slave in no mood for fun, I gave him a look and I asked him, "Which one? As a Christmas rush salesgirl," I said, "you'll agree That a look at St. Nick is no big treat to me; This, has gone far enough and this Nancy Fisher Is Put On Committee Nancy Fisher, Green Bay, wns appointed to the arrangements committee of the Young Republicans at the University of Wisconsin Thursday evening in Madison, along with four others.

The Young Republicans will meet Jan. to finish plans for a permanent organization on the campus. Invite Campers To Party On Saturday This summer's White Gables campers have been invited to a Christmas party between and Saturday afternoon by the Green Bay-De Pere Young Women's Christian association. The party will be held at the YWCA. Christmas Cameos Fragrant pine and silver chimes and in comes another Christmas season with its mosaic of little pictures, some peculiarly 19-15 and Others of centuries-old tradition.

Long lines queue up in post offices and a bustling woman explains to a puzzled post clerk, "Oh, that's the way Jane always makes n's see, all the way through her n's look just like u's." Crowds push in and out of creaking busses and at the head of a long procession of departing passengers a high schooler, oblivious of 35 waiting to get on, stops calmly in front of the rear view mirror to comb her hair. Khaki trousers with a gay plaid shirt and a navy pea jacket over a new gray suit go by as half- civilians give visual proof that a nation is demobilizing. Shoppers who have paid more for less than at any Christmas in recent memory (asp at the price and buy anyway as high prices ring out no matter what end of the economic scale they pluy. Faded service flags come down in home after home as the SS Domier and Hlilen bring home li)43's most precious Christmas gift, sons and husbands and brothers who were potential casualty reports for Christmas, 194-1. Clerks smudged with fatigue manage patience through their litany of "No, we haven't any," and customers, moved by some Inner force of the season, show a courtesy too often left between the pages of the etiquette book.

Fragrant pine and silver chimes and an ad full of toys lies next to the photo of a European child with his day's ration of food, which costs six cents. Christmas, 1945, is a study in contrasts, the victors and the vanquished, where through the accident of birth one six-year-old asks Santa for more toys while another asks merely more food. It is a Christmas which finds America intellectually richer through the heritage of the Ein-steins lost to a misguided Europe who accepted the invitation inscribed on the Statue of Liberty: "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore, Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me; I lift my lamp beside the golden door." Fragrant pine and silver chimes and the warmth of giving and the gentleness of a Little Child as war-weary humanity falls for a welcome fortnight under the spell of peace on earth and good will to men. Gals Can Always Hope A few days after the Don Cossack chorus sang here, a sweet young thing dropped in at a local furniture store. "Do you," she inquired after looking at footstools and such, "have any cossacks?" When the Liberty Ship Oconto arrived on the West coast a recent Tuesday with a load of returning troops, and the Suamico pulled in Wednesday, the fellow on the telegraph desk couldn't wait to get to work Thursday morning to see if a Duck Creek had come in yet.

In the legal world "enjoin" means to prohibit or restrain by a judicial order or decree. So it was with something of a shock that P. G. readers the other night learned Mrs. Dwight Eisenhower, still weak from pneumonia, was en route to Washington to enoin her husband.

Anyway, newspapers aren't the only victims of typographical errors. At the bottom of cash register receipts in a local cocktail lounge appeared the invitation; Why Not Try Our Coffee Shop Then something went wrong with the doodad, and the right side of, the slips quit printing. The resultant receipt read: "Why Try Our Coffee?" Quite as much a part of Christmas as trimming the tree and tucking the children in early on Christmas eve is If. I. Phillius' famous parody of "Twas the' Night Before Christmas." Here it b.
