Christmas ..Shopping? That's fiRht. you know It Is a very good Idea to buy from our advertisers. If It weren't for these people, it would not be possible lor us to continue publishing the newspapers at Klamath Union High School! How about being prudent this year and shop the clothing stores that advertise in our papers, or the sporting goods stores, or whatever else you may wish to buy. Did you know that practically anything you may want is advertised in our school pa pers, the Klamath Krater and News Nugget? You all want a good quality newspaper, and you also want Klamath Union High School to have a good reputation, and you the stu dents can help your school achieve both of those goals by doing one thing, making all your purchases with the generous merchants of the Klamath Basin, who advertise in our publications. One thing more when you go into the various stores in Klamath Falls, please don't think you are the only persons in the store be cause you are not. there happens to bo about 28.400 other citizens in this community and they want to be served Just as badly as you. so wait your turn. If it should be In a crowded store and you have more shopping to do, go ahead and do the remainder of your shopping, and then come back to the crowd ed store later. If you do all these things everyone will have a Merry Christmas. By FRED HEARD Another Yuletide is upon us and this year, as you all know, is the first Christmas the News Nugget 1 has been in existence. During the nine months of the Nugget history, we have made a number of improvements and changes. Our first big feature was the first annual Valentine Feature, Miss Heart Throb. We published our first banner headline in the fourth News Nugcet, March 4. The second nameplate was Initiated March 11. We used this familiar nameplate until last week. Tnis year we have added a radio pro gram to the agenda, which is heard over KFLW every Saturday at 6:15 p.m. The cartoons that are drawn by "Ginger" McK'nna, which you have probably seen in our newspaper are also new this year. These improvements could not have been made without the co operation of Mr. Frank Jenkins, owner and publisher of the Herald and News: Mr. BUI Jenkin?. man aging editor; Mr. Max Wauchope. cuy editor: and all the rest of the Herald and News staff. We also thank Mr. Bud Chandler, man rigor of KFLW: and Mr. Charlie McFarlan. producer of the News Xuccrts. To all nf these helpful people By BEV DORAN Every year the birth of Christ Is celebrated in the most popular of all christian festivals. It is festival for the young, and the young jn heart. This holiday is one to be gay and festive. For the young this means Santa Claus. For the young in heart this means they become Santa Claus. There are some unfortunate chil dren in tills world who don't have Ihe Joy of seeing all the presents that Santa has left for them under their Christmas tree, and perhaos there are some children who won't even have a Christmas tree to look at and admire. Why don't you do something about this unfortunate condition on Christmas? Why don't you make at least "one group of children hap py? If all tlie organizations of this city would take one group of chil dren and furnish them with pres ents and trees, just think how hap py this Christmas would be. Why leave it up to the hlph school kids only to try and assist the unfortunate? Bring the issue be fore your organization or group. Remember the wise men who brought gifts to the newborn King? Be like these wise men and bring gifts to the unfortunate people in Klamath Falls. Make this the most glorious and happy Christmas, since Christ was born! This staff wants to wish you each the happiest and merriest of all Christmases.

The snow was on the around. There rani'- a wail and barking Of someone's dam old hound. Mv feet were cold like Icicles. And I was turning blue. It seemed as Uiough I never would Oct warm clean through and through In the other room my brother iav snoring peacefully With five or six big blankets on, While I had only three. My sister just had gotten home. I heard her sneaking In. She thought that she would get away With being late again. But when she finally crawled In bed There was an awful 'heller.' For she laid upon our old Tomcat. Who usually slept In the cellar. Well. Mom and Dad bolh gave a shout. And Sis went down the stairs. Hoy! Did she get a bawling out! Well, you know how It scares A person, -vhen he's been awak ened By the screeching of a cat. who sounds As If he just succeeded in catch ing a rat. So now you know what It's like At my house. This goes on most every night: 'o I advise you not to stay with me. If you want to sleep tight. By S! 'ill A LCOMIS I speak for Democracy. In a '.and such as ours it is difficult to visualize any type of government other than the one that is now in existence. We love our nation and all for which it stands, but how often do we pause to really ap preciate Democracy and the ideals It implies? Many years ago men who loved liberty and wanted a democratic type of government fought for these rights, which they thought all men were entitled to. Many months and years the war for rights was fought. Many men lost their lives for a cause which to them was supreme. The roots of Democracy waited long to bury their way into our nation, but now they are deeply engraved on our way of life. Our ancestors gave to us this wonderful freedom. But it is still our duty to see that a democratic government will exist forever. Democracy Is not a part time Job. Every true American has the responsibility to maintain and to reserve the Constitution and De mocracy. First, understand your government and be Interested in its happenings. Make sure to make eovernment vour business, for it is the servant of the people and it will benefit you so be aware of ihe haDDenlngs around you. Everv person ouannea to voie sliouia ao so in every eictuuii The privilege to vote Is a very Important responsibility and should not be taken llgnuy. muay eacn candidate for every office and be armininted with his beliefs and his oualiflcations. Then vote for the candidate you oeneve win oo ino hest lor the nation as a whole and will carrv out the duties oi his office iustlv and fairly. Voting Intelligibly Is important ior ii is essential to have the very best people in the omces oi me suv- eminent. Work In a Domical party ana light for your ideas! Help create public opinion! n.itina iflvM miriv ana nuiieai.iv is important. Taxes are necessary far the running ot our govern ment. Since the government bene lits the people, the taxes are in directly helping the people who nav them. Know for what purposes in the government uus money a. used ' m case of an emergency, neip defend your country as much as von can. Serving our national ot- r.,ms is a dutv that may even demand ynur life in the field of military service, nesuoct and obey all community slate, and national laws. These laws were made either for the pro tcction or benefit of all people Be loyal to the principle of De mocracy and to the ideals of Amer ican living. These are lust a lew very im portant duties we should not neglect. Liberty is essential in ia-hiw.-- racy. Although we ao noi nave absolute liberty we have many privileges. Freedom of religion permits us to worship God in any-li-nv we Dlease and In any church of "our choice. Religion is the se cret of our greatness. Freedom of speecn is pracuccu dally bv almost everyone, public, opinion on Important governmental Issues Is encouragca. wiinnui ncu- dom of speech, this would be im possible. A well-informed public makes for a better world. American news papers are free to publish any story of any occurrence. Capital ism is a very uiiiunm .., Democratic society, in irec or nrivnte enterprise a Urge number of people may own one business. Competition is me ineoioou oi tnyi tallsm. Tills makes a person want to do his very ocsl. All men are created equal out here equality ends. Every person has the privilege ana rigm 10 wui for a special purpose in life. Those who work the hardest, accomplish the most in Anienra. we nave proven this often. M rh has been accomplished in the in.s levv cen turies and the Unl:cd Kates Is now the leader ol nations ana u is our duty to keep it so and to never forget the Democratic prin ciples that made this nation so great. Let this ne our cnaucngc in the future. Union High will hear familiar Christmas carols sung in German on December 23, In the KUHS halls.
