TOWN AND COUNTY RECEIVE WINE AND BEER CHECKS TOTALING $12,884 Revenue Based On Local Population Davie County and the Tow n of Mocksville last week received checks totaling $12,8B4.58— their pro rata share of North Carolina’s state tax on beer and wine sales for the year ending September 30, 1950. The County ol Davie is richer by some $11,476, while the Tow n of MocksviUe received |i.408.S8. The amount of revenue to be paid to each North Carolina county and city with legal beer and wine sales is based on the population of the particular city or county— not on the actual beer and wine sales.

It was the Distinguished Service Cross — second highest decoration. A business executive from out to town was riding in a taxi here the other day, and, incidentally, bragging to a friend who was with him about the Bronze Stnr which he won in the Pacific during World W ar II. This medal is about the seventh, highest decor ation awarded. ^The executive grew more enthusiastic about his exploits until even the taxi driv- listened. As the two passengers got out of the cab, the visiting veteran proudly toolc his medal out of his pocket and showed it to the driver. The cabbie nodded understandingly. "Oh, you were in the war too?” said the execut ive condescendingly. “Just what did you do?” The driver shrugg ed his shoulders and quietly pull- Ever since I was a boy, I have heard about fabulous Newport, Rhode Island, home of the very rich. Some swanky folks even used to list their addresses in the social register at “New York and Newport.” But for the last sev eral years, all accounts I had seen were to the effect that New port was just about dead; that the big homes were deserted and the social set gone. So it was with great interest that I learned on a recent visit to Newport that it is very much alive. The big hous es, at least, a lot of them still hold their millionaire owners, and the storied beauty of the fashionabe locale yet lingers al most as fresh as ever. Edwin Wai Teals, the natural ist, sees things in Times Square that one would never suspect were anywhere within miles around. Mr. Teals told me that by keeping alert, he has seen a crow fly over the famous civic center; that he observed a wood pecker flit across the crowds on its way to nerby Bryant Park. He vows he saw swarms of airborne spiders come in from the New Jersey countryside, and thinks pigeons and sparrows are comm onplace there. But the climax came, he said, when one day in the Square he pushed his way into a crowd of people and found that the center of attraction was a praying mantis on a sparkplug. Many of the military commun ications now being received by men who arc prospects for the U. S. A rm y are signed by The A d jutant General. It jiist so happ ens that 1 know personally the present adjutant general of the Arm y, Major General Edward F. Witsell, a native of South Caro lina, and it is my definite opin- ion that we are fortunate in hav ing such a splendid officer and gentleman in that,high office. A man of high achievements and superior record. General Witsell is loved and respected by the many who serve under him. Not long ago, he was, reappointed to his position, the first man in mod ern history to hold the office of The Adjutant General twice in succession. I met three walking down 5th Avenue and for a minute, they looked about like any other trio jaunting along with the crowd. The man on the outside, the wo man the inside, but in the middle- wowl It would probobly happen only in New York— there was a full - sized monkey holding the hands of his escorts and walking along as much like a human as a human.

ENTERPRISE APPALACHIAN PLAYS IN ANNUAL PYTHIAN BOWL GAME SATURDAY Some of the top small college football teams in the nation w ill be on display in Salisbury Sat> urday afternoon when the West Liberty Hilltoppers of West V ir ginia and the Appalachian Moun taineers clash at 2 o’clock on Shuford Field in the second ann ual Pythian Bowl football game. West Liberty, co-champions of the West Virginia Intercollegiate Conference with an unbeaten, un tied record this season, has a star studded lineup that has already placed two players on a leading "big” All-America team, and has placed several others on A ll- State, All-Conference and Little All-America clubs. Appalachian, unbeaten b u t once tied, defending champion of the Pythian Bowl and champion of the North State Conference, has also placed several of its stars on post-season mythical teams. Jack Groce, leading ground- gainer for the Mountaineers who scored 12 touchdowns this sea son, made the Greensboro Daily News and Charlotte Observer All-State teams. He was also hon- tion on several other A ll- State selections including the As sociated Pres^ and is almost sure to cop Little All-Am erica honors. Groce also made All-Conference along with guard Jack Pennell and end Tom Hendrix. Jack Donovan, offensive lead er for the Hilltoppers, has missed out on a lot of early post-season mythical teams so far probably because he is a first-year man, but the 180-pound tail-back is bound to be named somewhere for his achievements. He set a new conference record for ground - gaining, picking up 609 yards in 54 tries for an average of 11.2. He scored 10 touchdowns on runs ranging from 30 to 72 yards. Tw o of Donovan’s tenm mates, however, are being mentioned on a lot of teams, Richard Brown, a 245-pound tackle, and Pete Tuccio, 180-pound fullback, have already been named on the hon orable mention list of the United I Press “big” All-Am erica team. In addition they’ve copped places on several All-State and All-Con ference tennis. With two of the highest scoring small college teams in the nation scheduled to battle fans who see the game in Salisbury are bound to see some fancy stepping. An all-out offensive battle is pre dicted as the large array ot stars compete for honors.

C., as Second IClass Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879 SCHOOL PRIDE Pride and the care of one’s possessions usually go hand in hand. And it was with this in mind that School Superintendent Curtis Price four years ago initiated a pro gram for the schools of Dave County to indoctrinate school pride into the everyday lives of the students. Four years ago during the observance of Halloween, vandalism was apparent at most all of the schools of the county. Window panes were broken out, buildings were marred with paint, and the general property damage caused oonsiderable alarm. It was even more alarming when considered in the light of the pending proposal to vote bMids for the new construction and improvement of the county school facUiUes. It was then that the program of building up the CMisciousness of pride and school spirit was indoctrinated} Into the school program. Through various modes, the children were taught it was their responsibility to main* . tain and preserve a school of which they could be proud.' The results of this program were reflected this past Halkmeen. In comparison with the extiensive property damage inflicted at most of the schools of the county In 1 ^ , this year only one school reported the breakage of a single window pane. Another school reported soap on dour slau. Sis other achools of the county reported no damage whatsoever, in any form. W e congratulate 8u|*. Price, the school principals, the teachers, and moat of the boys and girls themselves, for the part they have played in the establidmient of the attitude of achool pride. W hen one learns to respect and value posseastons, not only of oneself, but of others, a most -important purpose of education har been achieved.

DAVIE FARMERS VOTE SATURDAY December 14 is voting day for farmers of Davie County. This is when the county’s eligible far mers will vote in the PM A com munity elections to determine who will represent them in the Production and Marketing Ad ministration program operations for 1951. According to L. R. Towell, chairman ot the county PM A committee, farmers themselves have the first responsibility in the administration of the A gri cultural Conservation Program, various price support programs, acreage allotments, marketing agreements and other activities and programs assigned to county and community PM A committees. “The farmers themselves must decide who will serve on their local committees. "Faced with an increasing de fense program and rapidly chang ing conditions brought on by world conditions, farmers in the coming year can expect changes in produfctlon and marketing patterns. These will call for the most able farm leadership in community and county commit tees. “Farmers of Davio County shoudl not let December 14 pass without taking advantage of the opportunity to__rcfiisifii:__tbfiin Applications for admitting pa- ing os an example our system ot tients w ill be taken at the office police protection.

ENTERPRISE THURSDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1950 Phone Co-op Board Told Of Members Approximately 40 per cent of the number of subscribers re quired for the start of construct ion on the Yadkin Valley Tele phone Membership Corporation project have been secured, it was announced at a meeting of the board of directors held this week. The communcations project, first rural telephone co-operative in North Carolina, is expected to serve 2,000 families in a two- county area. Meeting with the board and the volunteer membership commit tee were L. JE . Wooten, project engineer, and Asher L. Young, field representative of the Appli cation and Loan Division of the REA, Washington. Mr. Wooten said his firm was read yto start designing the sys tem as soon as the membership sign - up is completed and the R EA representative emphasized the sign-up so that construction could be started. James Parks, president, said that all rural families who desire a telephone should sign a formal application for service and pay their membership fe<j, in view of uncertain world conditions that may .soon cause a shortage of materials. “Persons desiring telephones pay $10 when the application is signed, and the remaining $20 be fore construction is started. Once the hookup is made, the cost is $3.00 a month. In signing the ap plication, persons w ill be request ed to take the telephone service for one year,” M r. Parks said. The North Carolina R EA has approved a loan, and the Wash ington headquarters has already allocated $518,000 to the corpor- tion for use when a sufficient number of subscribers have been signed up.

Wardell K. White, manager of the W in- ston-Salem Social Security office stated today. This is largely be cause the law now provides that if an insured worker dies after September 1, 1950, a lump sum death payment can be made in addition to any monthly benefits that may be due. Where workers died before September 1, 1050, these lump-sum payment? are made only cases where no month ly benefits are payable for the month in which the worker died. The method of arriving at the amount of the lump-sum payment was also changed. Where a work er dies after September 1, 1950, the lump-sum payment w ill be three times the amount of his monthly benefit. Where death oc cured prior to September 1, 1950, the lump-sum payment is six times the monthly benefits. Since the monthly benefit under the amended Social Security Act is about double that previously paid, the lump-sum payments will, by this change in law, be kept at about their present dollar level. Mr. White emphasized the fact that claims for lump-sum death payments must be filed with the MACEDONIA CHURCH The Christmas Love Feast and Candle Service w ill be held at Social Security Administration within two years of the date an insured worker dies. When claimed, these payments may be made to the widow or widower of an insured individual who was living with the worker at the time of death; or, if no such wid ow or widower survives, to any one (including a representative of the worker’es estate) who pre-1 sents itemized receipted funeral bills showing that the claimant has paid the worker’s funeral ex penses. the Macedonia Moravion Church, Sunday night, December 17, at 7:30 o’cloc.k The Rev.

ENTERPRISE NEW YORK BY ЖМТИ CAUJUIAM The effects of the big storm which hit this big city are still showing. If you were not struck by the hurricane, you were lucky, for it was a whopper, Hert, the tide came in and wet a lot of folks and property, and whole corners of big buildings were blown off into the streets, I passed along some of tho main streets of the city this week and found .that a lot of glass store fronts are still broken out. Signs have been put up in front of them saying that business is go ing on as usual. One empty win dow looked quite odd with its sign which stated mockingly: “Just look at these values.” A friend of mine an attorney, who has his offices on the 46th floor of one of New York’s sky scrapers, told me that at the height of the storm, the building superintendent came up and asked the occupants to leave the upper floors— the reasons being that the towering structure was swaying too much, the plaster on the walls was cracking and the window panes were being blown out by the fierce winds.

She is Miss Helen Finnegan of St. Albans which is near Jamaica on Long Island. She was on the train which was in the rear by the oncoming express. The last car on this train was the one in which the people rode who were killed, and usually Miss Finnegan rides in this very car. But by some kind of quirk of fate, on this particular evening as she rode home from her work in the city, she was walking through the train on her way to the rear car, when a friend was sitting in one of the middle cars happened to see her and asked her to sit with her.

It affectcd some of our neighbors too, but others nearby, on a different circuit, were priv- iliged to go blithely about their business, with lights on as usual. It was a rather forlorn experience to stand inside my darkened house and gaze wistfully across at the cheerful lights of the Hen ry Dupuys. Somehow their lights seemed brighter than they ever looked before. But the lights being out was not the worst of it Tlie lack of elcclricity cut off the operation of our ol furnace, left us with out heat in the freezing weather, without hot water, and deadened the radios and all other electrical appliances. Even this combined deficiency was not so bad on us adults— many other people were worse off, we know, especially those fellows over in Korea, But for the children, it was another story. The baby caught a cold and the next older one asked me so many questions about why elec tricity could cause so much havoc by its absence, that I was forced to hide behind a repitition of "I don’t know.” "CDTÏ MAX FACTOR We Have Many Other Suitable Gifts, such as CIGARS CIGARETTES PIPES TOBACCOS LIGHTERS, ETC.« WILKINS Drug Store Mocksville, N.

We built a fire in the fircplacc and I could not help but feel a little colder with the realization that wood here sells for $32 a cord. The fire helped some, burning us on one side, freezing us on the other. And it only helped in one room. Going to bed was like edging up to an iceberg. We crowded around the kitchen stove (a gas one) until there was no room to cook. Then I recalled vividly those mornings long ago, when as a boy I had to roll out of bed in a cold house, make the fires, then shive ralong down to the born to milk cows before day break. Maybe we liave gotten soft in this modern age. Oh yes, there is one more thing. Television is not so popular here anymore. Those big, spreading aerials which have sprouted from so many roofs upon the install ation of tho new-fangled things, nearly all were blown off in the storm. They lay like so many mangled shipmasts in tlve yards of theiK. crestfallen owners, hav ing torn a ragged path down the roofs and. sides of the houses.

R. Towell, chairman ' of the Davie County Production I and Marketing Administration Committee, announced this week. The PM A chairman pointed out that this acreage represents about the same number of acres seeded to pastures by farmers under the ACP last year. Pasture seed, made available to participating farmers through the program’s purchase order sys tem, included 2506 pounds of la- dino, 903Q pounds of orchard grass and 4679 pounds of fescue. “Farmers who obtain pasture seed under the program are al ways assured of high quality seed, the farm leader said, “as only seed meeting high germination and purity tests are made avail able.” Not only in Davie County, but throughout the State, farmers arc taking advantage of services offered through the Agricultural Conservation Program to aid them establish more and better permanent pastures. Recent an nouncement by G. Tom Scott, State PM A Chairman, Raleigh, reveals that 255,500 acres of Per manent pastures wore seeded in the State with A C P assistance during the 1950 calendar year. This compares with 167,228 acres established under the program last year, and 98,000 acres }n 1948. Pasture seed made available through tho purchase order plan to participating farmers through out the State included 1,549,591 pounds of orchard grass; 087,021 of fescue; 15,030 white dutch clo ver and 437,658 of ladino clover. “Assistance provided under the Agricultural Conservation Pro gram,” Scott said, “has proved the most effective and efficient means of getting essential conservation work done on the land of indi vidual farmers.” “This method of assistance does not require the farmer to pay, in the initial outlay, the entire cost of seeding or improving pasture acreage; and therefore, has been an incentive for many farmers, financially unable to bear the entire cost at seeding time, to take advantage of the pasture practice,” Scott explained. “The share of cost provided un der the ACP also represents the public interest and in conserva tion of the soil,” he added. The agricultural conservation program is available to all farm ers in Davie County. With the 1951 program already approved, farmers are urged to visit their counly PM A office at Mocksville, to discuss their conservation needs for the coming year.

Every classroom bespeaks the spirit of Christmas. Their culminating grogram w ill be Ijeld in the school auditorium on Sunday, De cember 17, at 6:30 p.m. •‘Ring Ye Glad Voices,” a can- tata-pageant by Ruth E.

The central figures of the Nativity w ill be portrayed by Helen Brit ton as Mary, and Clyde Stude* vent as Joseph. Nellie Holman and Ernestine Foster w ill be the girl and the reader, respectively.

While on earth Jesus emphasized creative good-will religion, but as a living and breathing organization that- radiates love and understanding to anyone and everyone among men. He did not restrict it to a certain race, nori who is oppressed. Will they meet this challenge? The a certain creed.

Mrs. Josephine Hnrding pur chased the house and lot on Wilkesboro Street, former prop erty of Dennis Silvcrdis. The .sale of the property of the Murray Construction Company was not confirmed. School Safety Patrol Honored by Jaycees The members of the Mocksville School Saftey Patrol were special guests of tho local Junior Cham ber of Commerce at its meeting last week. Sgt. Frymoynr of the State Highway Patrol spoke briefly to the group on the function of the safety patrol. He described how it is operated in larger cities and THE CHALLENGE TO RELIGION Are you a Christian? This question startles many laymen into answering a very meekly, “I don’t know.” An answer that is in reality probably the most sincere and truthful answer one can give to such a question. For althought the requirements and characteristics are familar to everyone, the formal expressions of the same differ widely according to interpretation of sects, of a group, and of the individual. Different men take different views of God. They wor ship in ways that appeal to them, but the worship is direct ed to the same end. It serves the same purpose, contrary to the belief of many, of putting finite men in tune with the divine spirit of God. Closer relationship between man and God is the ultimate end, but a by-product is a better relationship between man and man. Often times you may hear a person say he is not religious, or not very religious. Wliat he really means is that he is not addicted to the formal expressions by which so many judge religion today. And also he realizes that he may not be able to measure up to the perfectionist goals that the professional religionist talk about. He is afraid of being regarded as a hypocrite, and his timidity on this score is a sincere form of honesty growing out of the re- \ ligion that is within him. Deep down inside, most all of us are religious. Too often, today, when people assemble to talk of religion they adopt a sepulchral tone, as if religion were out of this world. The spiritual attitude is regarded as some thing separate and apart from the daily business of work ing and living. For too many worship is limited to a cer tain day, a certain hour, and forgotten thereafter. Religion can be discussed in ordinaiy tones. It can operate on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and all other days of the week. It makes itself felt within us from early morning to late night, even though we may not pause from minute to minute to recognize its influence. Religion is much more than the obeyance of a set of laws, many of which have been narrowed by limited human in telligence. True religion does not consist of condemn ation of others, but rather of doing good for one another. God is described and defined in the New Testament in one sentence: “GOD IS LOVE.” A definition and de scription that is easily understood by all, without too much added human commcnt. ---- forth in a flexible form that could be readily adopted by all. He based it around the Golden Rule: DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU. No where in the pages of the New Testament will you find where Jesus uttered or ordered: “Thou Shalt Not.” His was meant to be a postive religion—one that would offer the light to lead people out of darkness of misunderstand ing and hate. For those ideals He died. His last words being “Father forgive them for they know not what they do.” He did not condemn, He did not censure, he only LOVED. “Peace on earth and goodwill among men” can be attained through the living philosophy of Jesus Christ. It has not been attained because people have become more concerned with the promoting of self, through self-right eousness, condemnation and ostenation. Today, as never before, the Churches of America and of the world are being challenged. They are being challeng ed for leadership and guidance.

Pémgps'tRé greatest araxijagcR to religion in tne wona today is the spirit of self-righteousness that has grown to be so prevalent in this country. A county that was settled and founded on the basis of religious fi-eedom, the right to worship God in the manner of one’s own choice, now is reluctant to grant the* right to difefring gi’oups. Tliere are too many preachers, editors and laymen that are stand ing up, beating their chests, and continually shouting about what is wrong with the world. Condemning and blaming acts and actions of individuals and groups as being the cause of chaos, instead of recognizing them as probably out growths of said chaos. “Thou Shalt Not’s” should be used in the manner as brakes on an automobile—to give the operator control of the motion of his vehicle. Not to keep it a constant stand-still. An automobile is valuless to the operator if he fears to allow it to go forward and contin ually applies brakes in fear that something might happen. Religion also loses its rightful sense of value when it is con tinually presented as a negative phiiosophy, tied together with “Thou Shalt Not’s.” If God is Love, then God b fiiao An understanding person seeks to lead through love and in doing so recognizes the great factor otf Individual differences.

C., as Second Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879 IS THERE A SANTA CLAUS? The following is the famous editorial written for the New York Sun by Francis P. Church, September 21, 1897: We take pleasure in answering at once and thus prom inently the communication below, expressing at the same time our great gratification that its faithful author is num bered among the friends of The Sun; “Dear Editor—1 am 8 years old. “Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. “Papa says, ‘If you see it in The Sun it’s so.’ “Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus? “Virginia O’Hanlon. “115 West Ninety-First Street.” Virginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been afTected by the skeptisism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men’s or children’s are little. In this great universe of ours man is a mere , insect, an ant, in his intellect, as compared with the bound less world about his, as measured by the intelligence cap able of grasping the whole truth and knowledge. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as cer tainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its beauty and Joy. Mast How dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginia. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished. Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies! You might get pour papa to hire men to watch all the chimneys on Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if they did not see Santa Claus com ing down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither child ren nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on lawn? Of course not, but that’s no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive o rimagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world. You tear apart the baby’s rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest men that ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the .supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing elce real and abiding. No Santa Claus! ’Thank God! He lives, and he lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay, ten thousand years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood. Highway Patrolmen Give Christmas Cards North Carolina highway patrol men have an official Christmas Card this year, what’s more, they’re malting deliveries in per son. It's all part of an intensive highway safety campaign being conducted by the Department of Motor Vehicles in an effort to cut down on highway accidents over the Christmas holidays. Through out North Carolina, patrolmen will stop 80,00 motorists and hand them cards urging them to drive care fully during the Christmas sea son. Sixteen persons were killed during the Christmas holidays last year. The cards which patrolmen pre sent to motorists are printed in red ink on white. The front carr ies a drawing of a patrol car, a map of the State and Christmas and New Year greetings. On the inside pages is printed: “Please Help Me Keep Vour Holiday Sale. Drive Carefully and Courteous ly.” The idea of handing out cour tesy cards to motorists was used successfully by the patrol over the Fourth of July holiday. Also as part of the Christmas highway safety campaign, patrol men w ill make transcriptions to be used on local radio stations be fore and during the holidays. Special highway safety spot an- nouncements have been prepared for use by radio stations. Patrol men will spend as many hours as possible on the highways. With motor vehicle registration increasing every day, the Depart ment believes that mere vehicles will be on the highways this Christmas than over any holiday in the history of the State. Thou sands of college students w ill be home for the holidays. Service men on furlough and persons com ing home for visits undoubtedly will increase travel on Christmas Eve and the day after Christmas. The Department reminded mo torists that speed is the chief killer on the highways and that driving under the influence of in toxicants is anotlier leading cause of highway accidents TELEPHONE SERVICI. •• bisgtsff value ÌR Hit bmket B u y in g te le p h o n e service gives you a big package of time saving co n ve n ie n ce , protection, service,cificicncy, and q u ic k co n ta ct w ith others.

ENTERPRISE THURSDAY, læCEMBEK 21,195t The greatest joy of the Christmas season is that of the little tots -who awaken early Christmas morning and gaze in pleased wonder at the marvelous Christmas tree and the beautiful toys Santa Claus has brought. The happy expressions on these little faces is worth all the trouble the grown-ups have taken to make the occasion a perfect one. Scenes like the one pictured here are among the happiest memories of child hood. A little later on these children will begin to leam the deeper signifi- ocmce of Christmas. They will learn that the gifts of their pxirenta, in the mythical role of Santa Claus, are but symbols of God's great gift to humanity. The good will, love and unselfishness of the Chxistmostide are but a foreshadowing of the peace and good will that is to prevail among men through the teachings of Jesus, whose birth the Christmas season- commemorates. Parents should endeavor to lead their children into ah understand ing of this deeper meaning of Christmas—a task in which the Church stands ready to cooperate.

The Longest Year The year we now refer to as 46 B.C., was the longest year in calendar history. It contained 445 days, and for a very good reason. Numa Pompilus supposedly cre ated the Roman calendar in the ¡seventh century B. C. This cal endar was revised several times, but by Julius Caesar’s time, it was two months behind the sun. When Caesar’s experts devised the Julian calendar, which went along without revision until the 16th century, there was the prob lem of catciiing up with the sun before the new calendar could take over. So, two months were inserted between the months of November and December. Thus, 46 B. C. contained 445 days.

ENTERPRISE THURSDAY, DECEMBER 21, 195« CURIOSITY, HOPE GREET N EW YEAR H A N D IN HAND Curiosity and superstition al ways have greeted the New Year hand in hand with mankind’s bright hope for the future. In olden times families sought a glimpse into the year just be ginning by observing the “dipp ing" custom. With his eyes closed the head ot the house opened the family Bible and indicated a passage with his finger; the text, solemnly read and interpreted by the family, was indicatve of tho luck— good or bad— that was in store. Probably one of the most wide spread superstitions concerned the "first-footer,” the first person to cross the threshhold on Now Year’s ijnorning. Women and light-haircd men were considered unlucky "first-footers” as were people who walked pigeon-toed. In some villages, the supersti tion was taken so seriously that New Year in France Day Par Excellence January 1, la jour de la bonne annee, is the day par excellcpce in France. It is the day of, gift-giving and or ringing doorbells. Besides friends who come to present gifts, tradespeople are accustom ed to call to offer compliments a dark-hared man was given the first-foter job and, gong from house to house, he would be the first person to cross the thresh hold, thus preserving the good fortune to the community. Anglo - Saxons, believing that something might happen when the New Year burst in often climbed upon the roof on New Year’s Eve so as to have a good view of any such event. And we moderns niake as much j noise as possible, presumably be cause our primitive ancestors be lieved that noise would keep evil influences at a distance. of the day and receive, in turn small sums of money. The atmosphere is full of joy and gaiety and hospitality. Gifts are proudly displayed and callers come and go amid mny acompli- ments nd the toasting of every one’s health. Jour de I’an has its serious side, too. Many families visit the graves of departed members, snce this day is conscdered an appropriate time to remember the dead as well as the living. The churches generally are crowded on New Year’s Eve, which is also the Vigil of St. | Sylvester, an early pontiff and father of the Church. In various rural communities, the cattle are driven to the door of the village church where they are blessed by the priest who also says Mass for their protection during the New. Year. The tropical Isognathus cater pillar carries a whip attachment which is waved about to scare off enemies. ■ At this time of the year it U appropriate to take time out to express to you the ap- predation of our entire or- fanixation for your loyalty ond good will.

S. PLACE NAMES EXPRESS CHRISTMAS IDEA MANY WAYS Santa Claus, Indiana, Bethle hem, Conn.; and Christmas, Fla., are a few of the more familiar post offices which each year handle a flood of mail from send ers wishing to obtain yuletide postmarks. Although the federal postoffice department has now barred extra flourishes by local postmasters using Christmas symbols and mot toes, a town’s own holiday name can still give that festive touch to a greeting or package of toys. Indiana’s Santa Claus is the only town so designated in the United States. . The privilege is reserved to its post office by con gressional act. 'There is, however, Santa, Idaho. There is only one Christmas— the one in Florida— plus a Christmas Cove, Maine. On the other hand, seven Beth lehems answer the seasonal roll call: they can be found in Conn ecticuts, Georgia, Indiana, Ken tucky, Marj'land New Hampshire and Pennsylvania. The Bethle hem, Conn., post office was one several recently on the use of especially designed cancellation stamps bearing the now-forbidd- en Christmas tree decoration. The town’s population is about 350. There are two Noels— in V ir ginia and Missouri. Last year, Missouri’s Noel post office re ported hand - cancellation of a record of 650,000 pieces of Christ mas mail— -800 for each of the town’s residents. Besides spcc i f i с Christmas names that dot the land there are dozens that call up Bibical or holiday associations. There is A d vent, W . Va., for the Nativity. Kentucky has a Mary, and Ore gon and Utah a Joseph each. One Wiseman is found is Alas ka and another in Arkansas. The third, it may be assumed, is in Wisemantown, K y. There are five-Stars—and—four-Shepherds; West Virginia contributes Good w ill; Missouri, Peace Valley; and there is Joy in Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri, and Texas. For the Christmas party, T u r key is available in four states; Cranbery in three. Kentucky has a Mistletoe. Six states count an Evergeen; seven a Pine, and three a Holly.

Vet the trimmed Christmas tree, as it is known today, is only about 150 years old in this country. The Pilgrims forbade Christmas celebrations on the grounds they were pagan. A Massachussetts law in lUiiy subjected anyone to a fine who observed the day by feastng, refraining from work or in any other manner. It was not until near the end of the American Revolution that I the Christmas tree took hold.

He was fascinated by ever green trees, glistening wth star- . lie snow pointing to the heavens at Christmas time. So he brought an evergreen tree into his house and lighted it with candles for his children. Another old German legend credits St. Boniface with the or igin of the Christmas tree. Hav ing converted some oak tree wor shipping Druids to Christianity, he took them into a forest, cut down an oak and pointed to a stately fir along side. "Take this tree,” he said, “into your homes as a sign of your new worship. Celebrate God’s power no more with shaemful riteg, but in the «anctity of your homes with laughter and love."

A spark and a Christmas tree reduced most of the Pennsylvania town of Hyndman to ashes last year when fire spread from one house through several business a n d residential blocks. T h e sprightly holiday wreaths on town lamp posts became a grisly reminder of the Christmas night blaze to scores of families left homeless. One of the most tragic Christ mas fires struck at Babbs Switch, ! Oklahomo, school party some years ago. Thirty-six persons were killed and 100 injured when candles ignited a huge Christmas treie. Highly inflammable Christmas decorations spread a blaze that started in the kitchen of a St. Johns, N. F., hall a few years ago. The fire and subsequent panic caused the deaths of 99 persons, injured scores of others. A short circuit in electric lights on a Christmas tree sparked a fire that killed 27 persons, and injured 30 others in a Hartford, Conn., convalescent home in 1946. One of the most common re ports of Christmas tree fires every year, the fire authorities pointed out, is the fire started by a care lessly tossed cigarette or match. A publishing executive lost his life last year as a result of a lighted cigarette stub drpoped among Christmas wrappings in his Scarsdale, N. Y., home. His wife was severly injured when she jumped out of a bedroom window. There Was No Paved Highway For That First Christmas Trip There was no macadam high way leading from Nazareth to Bethlehem when Mary and Joseph undertook their memorable jour ney nearly 2,000 years ago. As for as routes were concern ed, there were three. The west ern route led along the sea coast and through the plain of Sharon. This route was unpopular with pious folk like Mary and Joseph who shunned the heathern cities, rowdy travelers, etc., as much as possible. The shortest route, via the fruitful plains of Esdraelon into the mountains . of Samaria and through Shechem and Bethel was not very popular cither. The road was tolerable, but steep; how ever,- the Jews had little use for the Samaritans, and vice versa. Christmas Mass Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve is the event of the year in Rome. Every Rowan Catholic church in the Holy City is crowded with men, women and children a^jx- ious to see the processions of church officials in their splendid robe.s. The larger the church, the more beautiful the sight.. And ot course, the scrvice at St. Peter’s is the most magnificient in the world. A t St. Peter’s all the men present are required to wear eve ning clothes and the ladies must be dressed in black, thus off setting the brilliant beauty of the robes. Even the guards on duty are attired in elegant red and white uniforms. п н А а н А М м э т м м и м в А к м т м и А т и Tradition of Poppy The poppy loaf, traditionally a ' part of Christmas Eve supper in The Jordan route, which do- Lithuania is □ small loaf made of scended into,the Jordan’s vail- bread dough and baked hard in ey and followed ,the river’s east bread pan.

The legend which sur rounds the custom is believed to have started in Ireland. Thcrp on Christmas Eve a large candle was burned which could be ynurfed out only by one named Mary. As the Irish put it: “Who itnows, on some Chrstmas Eve, Jesus and M ary and Joseph may come again, not to Palestine, but to the Holy Isle on the iartherest edge of Europe?" Their first use for Christmas is not recorded in the annals of any nation, but that the “Christ Child Candle,” burned in the window of Christmas Eve is, ac cording to an old legend, placed there to light His way if He maites an earthly visitation and in atonement for the night of His birth when there was not room for Him. Also among the legends is. ope about baybery candles burned on Christmas. During the early history of our country animals fats were rela tively scarce. The branches of the baybery shrub were covered with wax-giving berries and children were given the task of gathering th e berries when candlcs had to bo made so that the animals iats could be con served. According to tradition, one who burned a bayberry candle on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day would have a long life and a happy one. An old verse reads: “To learn you luck for the year they say, Burn a bayberry dip on Christ mas day. If the flame burns bright and the light shines clear, Good luck w ill be yours throughout the year."

The United States, meeting' place of carols from all Christen dom, contributes yearly to the! j traditions of Christmas music by writing new songs and populariz ing old ones. The carols of Europe arrived with the peoples who camc to America to settle. “O Come, A ll Ye Faithful” (Adeste Fideles), eventually translated into 119 lauguages and dialects, belonged j j to no one nation but was the common gift of the continent. From Germ any came Luther’s hymn for childpcn, “Aw ay in a manger, no crib for a bed . . .” England gent "God rest you merry gentlemen, let nothing you dis may . . .” And France provided the beautful “Cantique de Noel” or "0 Holy Night.” Three American composers did much to revive the ancient cus tom by writing new songs which are, today, among the world’s be loved carols. “It Came Upon' a Midnight Clear” was the inspiration of Ed mund H. Sears, a Massachussetts Unitarian mnister, in 1849. Less than 10 years later Dr. John Henry Hopkins, Jr., Episcopal rector from Williamsport, Pa., composed both the words and music for “We Three Kings of Orient Are.” Perhaps the bst known Am eri can carol, “O Little Tow n of Beth lehem,” was written in 1868 by Phillips Brooks in Philadelphia.

YULE TREES CAN INCREASE FIRE HAZARD That Christmas tree you are planning to set up in your home could be a major fire hazard unless you take a few precautions, the National Board of Fire Under writers warns. Tests made by Underwriter’s Laboratories, Inc., demonstrated I that Christmas trees of average size are easily ignited and burn furiously. The blaze could easily start a dangerous fire in 'your home. Engineers of the National Board offer the following suggestions for making your Christmas tree , safe: 1. Choose a small tree; It w ill be less hazardous. 2. Wait until a few days before I Christmas to set up your tree. I 3. Keep the tree outdoors until ready to set it up. 4. Place the tree in the cool est part of the house. 5.

Do not place electric trains around the tree. 9. Make certain wires are not frayed. Choose lighting sets bear ing markings which indicates listing by Underwriter’s Labora tories, Inc. 10.

Mistletoe Has Come Long Way Since The Days of Druid Worship The mistletoe has come a long way from the days when it was' worshipped by the British druids to its present status as a crim inal killer of forests. However, its use as a symbol of love, peace making and goodwill survives to this Christmas intact from the pre-Christian days of the ancient Scandinavian light god, Balder, whoso palace stood in the Milky Way. The beloved Balder, so the myth goes, was slain by a mistle toe arrow but was restored to life at the intercession ot the other gods. Custody of the mis tletoe plant was then entrusted to the goddess of love who or dained that henceforth anyone passing beneath its bough should receive a kiss in token of love, not vengeance. Held high, it never could be evil. ITH EVERY GOOD WISH FOR A GREEN MILLING COMPANY M P t m ^ ..... Tht past year has been an en/oyable one.

Legends Associate Mule, Gentle Camel of Jesus With Gift-Giving Custom Syrian legends have associated the Magic Mule and the Gentle Camel of Jesus with gift-giving for reasons that are at once diff erent, and yet similar in their association with the Christ Child. It seems a certain traveler tied his mule to a tree when he went into an inn for refreshment on Epiphany Eve. Just at midnight, when the boughs of the tree bowed down in homage to the Holy Infant, the mule was caught up on the rebound and found cradlcd high up in the branches by its returning master. Tho youngest camel of the three riden by the Wise Men was ex hausted by the pressing journey and was blessed with immortality by the baby Jesus as it lay moan ing near the Nativity scene.

Dr. Moore, Author Of ‘Night Before,’ Was Ashamed of It Everyone knows and loves the poem which begins— 'Twas the night before Christ mas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring,, not even a mouse;— but the man who wrote it Dr. Clement Clarke Moore, was a- shamed of il and would not al low it to be published under his' name for more than 20 years. Dr. Moore, an alooi professor of Greek and Oriental literature in the Episcopal Seminary) in New York, wrote the poem on Christmas eve 1822 and read it to his seven children. He had not planned for the poem to go further than his own family, but a relative who was visiting the Moores put a copy in her diary. The next year the relative's father sent it to a news paper. . . Other newspapers printed the jingles and they quickly becam« known all over the country. The dignified Dr. Moore was embar rassed and considered it beneath a man of his scholatic standing to be the author of children’s jingles. Twenty-two years later, how ever, he finally publicly admitted authorship of the jingles and it was published in book form under his name for the first time. S€ASON’S Before Revolution Russians Welcomed New Year Heartily Pre - revolutionary Russia wel- comel the New Year with boom ing cannon— a hundred shots fired at midnight. The observance of the New Year on January 1, according to the Gregorian calendar, was in stituted by Peter the Great in 17007' The'evening-of-December- 31, known as St. Sylvester’s Eve, was the time for great fun and enjoyment. In Petrograd (later St. Peters burg, and now Lenningrad) the streets were gayly decorated with flags and lanterns and thronged with merry - makers. After the booming cannon ushered in the New Year, the Czar formally re ceived the good wishes of his subjects. On New Year’s Day the Winter Palace was opened to society. Festivity reigned throughout the city, hospitality and charity were the watchwords from palace to cottage ,at least, at New Year’s time. The mythical Ovsen w'as sup posed to be around about this 1 time. He was usually depicted ; astride a boar, symbolically asso ciated with the pork served for ; New Year dinner and the sym bolism of Aryan decent.

HALL DRUG COMPANY TRADITIONS ARE SET UNIVERSALLY One thing about New Year tra ditions, they are universal, irres pective of calendar variations or the race and creed of the obser vants. Endeavoring to get the New Year off to a good start, the Chinese pay up their debts on New Year’s Eve. And the English claim it’s a good idea to start a savings account on January 1, since what you do on New Year’s Day is indicative of what the ensuing year will be like. A round loaf of bread dipped in honey. symbolizes Jewish hopes for a smooth (the roundness of the bread) and prosperous (the honey) New Year. The same spirit of hospitality and sociability that makes the Wassail Bowl such a success in Scotland prompts Armenian housewives of Persia to get up extra early on New Year’s Day and set about baking the tradit ional New Year cakes. The baking must be done early, for the New Year is the day for, visiting and entertaining. n PAYS TO ADVERTISE BEST W ISHES FROM YOUR PURINA DEALER DAVIE FEED AND SEED COMPANY In ihe glistfning lights >nj mttsy reaniw»- •I th«,Chri8tina> Season, may you find complete happiness and joyoui festlvlljr.
