Cute! =D
You forgot the line "Chaplin's clever comedy" though, it brings some more sense to "completes Christmas cheer".

It's almost as if they were trying to break a cryptic crossword clue.

Or proto-Beat poetry.

I picked up this very same book at an estate sale a few weeks ago.

One thing I notice from many of these older notes you've found is how nice the handwriting is. It reminds me of my grandmother's handwriting. So perfect and neat. She was always proud to tell me how the teachers would tell her how perfect her handwriting was. Even into her older years...still perfect. I look at handwriting now and it's all over the board. Too much typing...not enough cursive writing practice I guess.
Thanks for sharing.
