HARM NICHOLS FINDS: Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon, Thursday, Dec. 21, 195015 People in U. S. St7 Practice 'Good Will Toward Men' By HARMAN W. NICHOLS Washington, Dec. 21 (U.R) I have evidence to prove that we still practice "good will toward men" in America. In Washington, and elsewhere. Here in the capital, a group of auto supply firms has done a daring thing. Instead of passing out gifts to their customers like they used to, the outfits are tan ing the money and buying food and clothing for the needy. John Carden, who runs a Washmobile concern, says that the idea started last year when a couple of companies decided to stretch their necks out. ' "We put ourselves on a spot," he said. "You know that custo mers can run you into the red by taking their business some place else." But, surprisingly enough, it didn't work out that way. The two 3irms last year sent their patrons cards instead of presents and explained what ihey were up to. The customers phoned and wrote in that they thought it was a swell idea, i This year, about a dozen oth ' r supply outfits have joined the parade. And a lot of customers, instead of expecting and get ting gifts, are adding money and presents to the pool. Another small group around town is quietly doing good by practicing the. "do-unto-others'-slogan. It's called, properly, "The Golden Rule" club. It's an informal organization of six fellows and their wives who have palled around togeth er since they were kids. A couple of years ago, one member of the crowd ran across an invalid at Emergency hospi tal. He talked his friends into sponsoring a dance to raise money for the patient. The dough rolled in. Not Ion? after that, another member saw a piece in the papers i.bout a little boy who was hurt in an auto smash-up. There was an other benefit dance, and there have been many since. ; A Christmas time approached, the folks put their heads togeth er plus all the money they could spare. On Sunday night a few needy folks in Washington will get Christmas baskets. In Duiant, Okla., Miss Ora O Riley, a native Choctaw In dian, has been working since 1939 on a worthy project she thought up all by herself. i want my nome town to be the one city in the United v States where a picture of Christ k is displayed in every home," she I wrote the United Press. "Also in every school, business office, and public building. This dream has almost come true." Once Durant is 100 per cent for the idea, Miss O Riley hopes that the thing spreads around the country. 'There should be something done to call our attention to what the occasion is," she said "The season of the year has been commercialized until the real purpose of celebrating the birth of Christ is lost entirely.1 Miss O Riley also thinks it woula be swell if each" town would sponsor a "Christ the Princs of Peace" Christmas parade. "Then'maybe' some day in our time the world - would have peace," the Indian woman said.
