For Ed Note: This year Owe0 Johnston came up with anofier of the Night Before Christmas which he recited ai the Kiwanis Concerr. By OWEN JOHNQON ’Twas the Night before Christmas, with the snow coming down, Not a thing could be seen on the road to ow town, But the cars in the ditch by the side of the road, And tow trucks all bustling Along with their load, While the rocks came rolling down! I travelled along, dodging rocks from the sky, When what should appear to my wondering eye But a truck in the ditch all loaded with toys, Expected to bring children pleasures and joys. It cannot be true, it must be a trick, The driver so angry, it can’t be St. Nick! But I picked him up and I heard his tale, And this is the story old Santa did wail, While the rocks came rolling down! “My reindeer were tired, a wreck was my sleigh, So I thought I would do it the modern way; 1 rented a truck and parked the old sleigh, Left the reindeer in at the SPCA; But the bridges were blocked, with rocks in the way, When the snow started falling, nought could I say, But to wish I had used the broken-down sleigh, -And kept to the sky in the old-fashioned way!” Then 1 drove him home and gave him a snack, Till Harold’s could bring his truck and his pack. Once more he went on his merry old way, And as he left I heard him say, Your Mayor has been learning, but the Council’s half new, Old Santa will tell you what you must do.
