LETTERS TO EDITOR
Editor, The Frontier:
As the following poem is so,
fitting in so many homes as well
as our own home this Christmas
I thought you might use it for
your paper.
I WON’T BE HOME FOR
CHRISTMAS, MOM
I won’t be home for Christmas,
Mom,
0 For there’s so much to do.
But, gee, I wish I could be there
To be with Dad and you.
1 won’t be home for Christmas,
Mom,
But when you trim the tree,
Please sing the carols we both
loved.
And sing one just for me.
I won’t be home for Christmas,
Mom,
And I’ll be lonesome, too,
So say a prayer to God up there
That I’ll soon be with you.
I’ll soon be home for Christmas,
Mom,
If you and all the rest
Will say a prayer to God up the^e,
For that will be the best.
When I get home for Christmas,
Mom,
The peace will be won;
But till that day I will remain
Your ever loving son.
Yours trulv.
