In the midst of this joy, we near the usual complomt that Christmas is over- commercialized W e hear the complaint that Christ has been taken out cf Christmas It is sodly true some people do ignore Him os they celebrate His birthday. These complaints seem to get nowhere, or not very for. The reoson is clear It sums up to PERSONAL acceptance or rejection of the meaning ond pur pose of Christmas. This verse copied from o Christmas cord, deals with this thought rather well. M oy the glitter of the season N ot obscure the holy reoson For this happy celebration . . . They come in haste to find the King — Is your rush another thing? He e«tends this invitation . . . Come — ond find the Prince of Peoce le t the needless turmoil cease, Find for life a dedication.

CALL TODAY Cable Vision Inc. By NELL HOWE ¡ Hood-Land Reporter I You guessed it, I am still not ready for Christmas. We got the tree up, and it snowed, beautifully, and all that, but somehow I just don’t seem to catch up, Fte on these people Who are all ready, and have been since before Thanksgiving. Don’t see how they can be full of Christmas spirit when they don’t have to rush around and get puninieled by all the people. But I will make it. Gayle St-alf, my m ostcharm - lng niece, eagerly waiting the homecoming of her husband, Don. He is going to be here som e time this month, but, if you know the service, they aren’t telling any definite date. She doesn’t know if it will be before C hrist mas or after. So to be on the safé side she purchased an a r tificial tree. She figures the needles, at lea st, won’t have all fallen off. And they can have Christmas when Don arrives. Then the first of the year they take off for Germany, where Don will be stationed forayear. Furniture, car and all will go. Gayle Is so excited, and so is everyone for her. I know there must be a lot of news going on around this mountain, and as long as I am the only one writing from up here, I would certainly appre ciate it if people would call me when they have some news. No bit of news is too sm all, and I just can’t cover the whole place. So give me a buzz, if you have any news. ind I will be most happy to see it gets into the paper. We wish to welcome some more newcomers to the com munity. The Hood-Land C hris tian church has a new m inister, Mr. Clyde Pratt. Mr. Pratt, his wife and infant daughter, will occupy the residence on the church property. They hope to have special music each Sunday and hope anyone who can sing or play an Instru ment will Join them. Now Is certainly the time of the year to make a new m inister most welcom e. Drop In and visit. Lorraine Staggs in the h os pital and certainly hope she Is doing OK, and is home when you read this. This Is no time of the year to be away from home. As usual I wish to take this time and sjxice to wish all the wonderful people on the moun tain A Wonderful Holiday Sea son! This is my sneaky way of getting out of sending C hrist mas cards locally. Always think my list will grow sm aller each year, and each year I meet that many more wonderful folk, and so the list grows and grows, and sooooo, to save that nickel. I cheat this way. N ever-the- le s s , the greeting Is Just as sin cere. May everyone’s next year be a healthy and happy one. i LUSTED LINES I A FAMILY gathering at the home of Mrs. Betty L.

Day of Ketter, Day, Wall 6 Bricker, attorneys In Port land - - a Job with p ressures, responsibilities, challenges aid much personal satisfaction; and Whereas, each day. 1 spend at least 1 1/2 hours on the Oregon highways commuting to and from work ( 30 m iles each way) in my Ford Fatrlane V8- satd car having taken me ov«r 20,000 m ilee since I got my driver’s license on Friday, the l'th , of January, 1967; and Whereas, each Monday night ( with few exceptions) 1 am up late meeting the deadline for my weekly newspai*r column “ Making the SUndy Scene” for the Skindy Post - Including phone ca lls to obtain information In relation thereto; and Whereas, in October of 1967 I became a member of “ Hap piness is Friday” - a Portland club with over 600 m embers, all single people ages 21 to 35, who gather each Friday night ( and som etim es more often) for dances, talk, and various social activities Including group trips, said events drawing 300 or 400 members a night; and Whereas, my evening hours are filled with people dropping in to talk, to ask assistance, but mostly Just because they need a listener; and through said evening hours, many lives have crossed my own life’s pattern and I have experienced much, seen much, and gained more unierstandlng of life around me, --be it a visit to another’s home, a visit to a county jail, or even Just a visit to another’s home, Just a visit within tny apart ment, and having been enriched by each individual who has turned to me for help, I only trust that their lives, too, have gained a little from coming across the path of mine; and Wheras, for some completely unknown reason, I find that I must take some time for a few snatches of sleep and bits of food in Intervals between the afor mentioned activities; and Whereas, I have found that 24 hours is not enough time In a day to do the things I want to do, like writing poetry, draw ing portraits with pastel chalks, reading more books, writing letters and visiting friends; Now, therefore, 1 express herein the following personal wishes this holiday season: I wish you, for this Christ mas and forever after, Joy, Happy Laughter, Good Tim es, Genuine Friends, and an abun dance of Happiness, su ccess and rrrrrrrrrrrrrriTnnB Dialing Damascus • Damascus Union school’s Christmas program will be Thursday, Dec. 21 at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Dec. 22 children will be picked up one hour later In the morning and dism issed at noon.
