To Miss Carlile...
News For You 
It makes the old wish warmer
And even nicer, too,
To have the chance to wish it
Especially for you
So 'A Very Merry Christmas'
One as cheery as could be
And a 'Very Happy New Year,' too,
For you especially!
The lines are from a Christmas card signed by Elizabeth Carlile’s class at Lord Tweedsmuir circa 1943. Images are the centre, back and front pages of the greeting card, which is among the treasures at the Surrey Archives. Surrey’s first high school turned 100 this year.
