The Port Ortord Deep Water Harbor = KEY to the Development of the Vast Natural Resources of the Mid-Pacific Coast Empire PORT ORFORD NEWS Volume VII. Port Orford, Oregon, Tuesday, December 20, 1932. Poultry Show Big Success; T hird A nnual E vent Number 5. Port Ortord Loses to Riverton; Play Gold Beach Wednesday CHRISTMAS SPIRIT o Find Caves One thousand nine hundred and thirty-two years ago, the Great Event of the Manger took place. A Way-Shower, “one tempted alike as we,’’ one as hu man as he was divine, came into this world to lead a life of purposeful service. He lived, was crucified and finally earned his heavenly rest that mankind down the ages might be given an Example by which to pat tern life; that the sweet message of “Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men’’ might give eternal hope to hu manity of all nationality, creed or circumstance. The spirit of the Christ Child which has leavened the world these thousands of years is simply this—Uni versal Kindness. It is a spirit inherently with us. in fact, the only spirit with which the babe is born. The natural instincts of a child are kindly. They know nothing else until example or circumstance causes them to see another side of life. So when the \ uletide comes around, it is the eternal child in us that wells up and overflows in kindness to everyone about us and particularly to those less fortunate than ourselves. If that is so, then let’s never grow up. Let’s be boys and girls, not just during the gala times of Christmas week, when it is so easy—but throughout the year. Let’s spn-’ d the spirit of Universal Kindness into each day of the coming year. Then we cannot but have jus tified our existence for we have aided, not hindered, our fellow man.
