Back to School With Betsy
“Father's Funny Dream Thanksgiving was hardly over when the children in the third grade began talking about Christmas. The paper turkeys and pumpkins that they had pasted on the blackboard were taken down.
The children were soon busy drawing what they called Christmas presents. They made them on large sheets of paper with colored crayons. With scissors they cut around the edges of the presents. When they were all finished, there were horns and drums, balls and tops and blocks. Some of the little girls had drawn dolls. A few of the boys had made fire engines and airplanes. Billy drew a great big fireplace on the blackboard. Then the children pasted the presents in front of the fireplace.
Way up high on the blackboard Miss Ross drew the chimney. Then she pasted Santa Claus's sleigh and reindeer up in the sky. The children thought the blackboard very beautiful.
At home Betsy was very busy making her real Christmas presents. She made Ellen a necklace of pink beads. For Billy she made a beanbag.
