Energy meeting ends by raising' more questions Sierra Club sponsors film and discussion By Nena Bolan Glades County Democrat MOORE HAVEN A meet- ing to discuss energy sources, energy conservation and the impact of a coal powered plant in Glades County was held last Saturday at Saint Joseph's Catholic Church. The event was hosted by Bob and Jan Krasowski of the Calusa chapter of the Sierra Club. Fifty to sixty people attended the showing of a doc- umentary film called "Kilowatt Ours." Afterwards, a discus- sion was directed by Mr. Kra- sowski. The film, "Kilowatt Ours", expressed a viewpoint that is critical of the use of coal pow- ered plants. It depicted how the coal mining industry extracts, coal from the Appalachian Mountains in West Virginia. The process is called mountain top removal. It showed how entire moun- tains are excavated. Represen- tatives from the coal mining industry were not present in the film. The documentary film also brought up the subject of air and water pollutants that may cause,' or aggravate health conditions.

On Satuiday, No-. 19, a group of seven from Furst Pres- b;l:rian Chuich in Pompano Beach traveled to help repair Gail's of Lakeport home that was destroyed by Hurricane Wilma. The previous week, Manassas St. Thomas United Methodist Church came for five days and replaced four roofs and worked on a home in Moore Haven with interior dam- age. Three local individuals, Daniel Luna, Danny Luna, Gregorio Garcia also helped this month by repairing an elderly man's trailer and the trail- er of a grandmother who lives with her, daughter and six grandchil- dren. Thanks to a gift from the Rotary Club, we were also able to hire Titus Smith Services t6 replace Marcus's roof, porch and interior walls. Visit CREW's blog site http://huricanerecovery.blogspot.c uom/ and Web site http://home.earthlink.net/-huri-, canerecovery/ for pictures and more information. Three local volunteers, Daniel Luna, Danny Luna, Gregorio Garcia worked to repair Calvin's trailer. Calvin is an 82-year-old who has been a resident of the Clewiston area for 33 years. He supported his family by working at Shawnee farms. These local volunteers stepped up and helped install a new door, trim and molding that were destroyed by Hurricane Wilma. A grant from the NFL helped pay for the supplies and any costs the vol- unteers incurred. This same group went to Kathleen's home. Kathleen is a 72-year-old woman who lives with her daugh- ter and six grandchildren. Hurri- cane Wilma damaged her home's roof, ceiling and back door. Between insurance and her own savings she was able to get the money after a year's time to fix the roof with help of friends. She was also able to buy a door, but had no way to install or the any money to pay anyone to install it. She shared the following with us: "CREW has helped me tremen- dously. I didn't have finances and they helped by putting in a back door for me. Also they kept in touch with me. The door fits great so there is no hot or cold air com- ing in. There are also no spiders or animals coming in from outside," she said. A grant through the NFL also helped with costs incurred by volunteers in this home as well. A talented and spirited group of 20 volunteers from St. Thomas United Methodist Church in Manas- sas, Va., came to repair roofs. They slept on cots in a local church and worked from sun up to sun down (sometimes past sun down). The first home they worked on was William's in Clewiston. 'Williarri had massive damage to his hornme from Hurricane \\'ilma A year after the storm he still had a "blue roof" and damaged win- dows. With the help of funding from the NFL for materials and vol- unteer costs, this group w as able to completely replace the roof (including rotted plyw oodl While here, the group also worked on Luis's home in Moore Haveni. Luis is a 50-year-old disabled man living in a low income rented home. The roof was damaged and the house leaked under the door, there' was a huge \\hole in the kitchen ceiling from a water leak, the floor was spongy throughout the house and the sink needs to be replaced. CREW initially tarped the home to provide him with tempo- rary relief. The owner shared that he did not have the funds to fix the home and he rented to Luis at a low rate, since he had been there a long time. He signed an agreement to not raise the rent or displace Luis for three years if CREW was able to help make some repairs. Our Vir- ginia volunteers were able to replace his roof, plywood and all. The NFL helped cover the costs for this home as well. This incredible group while here also worked oh Altovise's home. She is a single mother of three daughters who has lived in Hendry County for three years. She suffers from Lupus as well. In June, we tarped her home to provide temporary relief. She had insur- ance, however, her deductible was almost 50 percent. She used her insurance money and then United Church of Christ Disaster Assis- tance pitched in the remainder of the funds needed. The Virginia vol- unteers replaced some plywood and all of the roofing. The final roof this wonderful group from Virginia worked on was Blanca's. She is a disabled adult who lives alone with limited functioning. She received funding from FEMA but used the funds to purchase clothing, food and other daily necessities. Her roof needs to be repaired, however she is unable to effectively advocate for herself, she has a guardian who provides assistance as well, but they were unable to get the roof repaired. The United Church of Christ Dis- aster assistance also paid for these materials as well. The UCC group also sent a film CREW out to docu- ment our volunteer's worldk on the homes! The last home they worked on (yes that's four complete roofs and then some in four and a half days) See CREW-Page 10 '-'-~ 41 Donald Brown Local family says' thanks for support The Donald and Regina Brown and Beverly and Joe Hogan families \would like to thank all of Donnie's friends and family for the many cards, letters, flowers, food and sup- port. especially Greg and crew at Chappy's and the folks at Eli's West- ern Wear, during our mourning the loss of his life here on earth.

His last known address was on South Coconut Road in Paho- kee. He has also been known as "Tarick Holmes." He is wanted on charges of aggravated assault on a preg- nant person. Anyone with information on the whereabouts of this fugitive can contact the Crime Stoppers at 1 (800)-458-TIPS (8477) or online at www.crimestoppersp- bc.com. The local area is still under water restrictions due to a water shortage. On Nov. 9, 2006, the Governing Board of the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) declared a mandatory water shortage order for the Lake Okee- chobee Service Area (LOSA). This area includes the Everglades Agri- cultural Area, and portions of Hendry, Glades, Lee, Okee- chobee, Palm Beach and Martin Counties. Classified as a Phase 1 or mod- erate water shortage declaration, the order impacts agricultural, industrial and commercial water users as well as public water sup- ply utilities around the Lake; with- drawals from the Caloosahatchee River; and a relatively small num- ber of residential users whose water source is Lake Okeechobee or any of the surface water canals recharged by the Lake.

The change should l ilp reduce'e the number of calls that cannot be completed because the h-aiiring person is nrot tamiliai 'ith a relay call. In the past, people unliTi-iliar with how Relay \\oiks wouijld often hang up when eceiiring a call from the Relio' pe,-a,.or think- ing it was a solicitor call The PSC anticipates that the change will also provide customers with a more friendly and warm interac- tion wvilh Relay operators. Florida Relay is a service that allows a deaf or hearing impaired person to contact a hearing per- son through a specialized opera- tor. A deaf or impaired person uses a teletype machine to type and receive text messages from the operator while the operator voices the conv ersation to the h.ariiig person.

Guest Commentary 'Tis the Season to switch drug plans By Grace-Marie Turner It's that time of year again, when gift-giving, good food and family get-togethers are on all our minds. But amidst the hustle and bustle of holiday activities, seniors enrolled in the new Medicare prescription drug plans need to be thinking about whether they want to siay with their current plan. For those interested in makiniig a tvitli, now is the time. It's also the timi-e io sIeionis who didn't pick a Medicui iling ,plan before last May's cut-ott date to enroll. Every month that seniors delay costs them an addi tional 1 percent In premiums. Between Nov. 15, and Dec. 31, every year, Medicare hosis dn open enrollment period ill which seniors can reexaiiiiiie their current prescription drug coverage and switch or sign up for the first time. (Those with retiree coverage through their former employers generally don't need to do anything if their 'employer offers a qualifYing Part D plan.) This yearly period allows sen- iors to take advantage of the many competing offerings, pro- vided under Medicare's drug plan and pick the one that's best ccr [ e--i. The open-erro'lment period also keeps plan providers on -i "- *1 E S . '.'.-.~r:2 mhat beneficiaries have the option to switch to, a competitor means that insurers are always trying to come up with better plans which results in lower prices and a broader array of choices. This option to choose between a host of private insur- ers is what makes Medicare Part D so different from other govern- ment programs. By leveraging the power of private-sector competition, Medicare Part D provides more drugs than the frequently vaunt- ed programs in Europe or Cana- da. Part D is also vastly superior to the drug benefit program run by the Department of Veterans Affairs, which uses a more tradi-' tional government- run model. Almost 90 percent of all pre- scription medications on the market are currently available through Part D. That's in sharp contrast to other healthcare systems across the world. In France, for exam- ple, the government recently asked doctors to prescribe fewer medicines to cut costs. In Ger- many, many of the most-innova- tive drugs aren't rteimbursable. And even in the United States, the Depailinelit of Veterans Affalis relfuses 1 t)cover many of the newest, most-eifective phar- macolticils unless other drugs are tirst Irie . When one compares any of these programs, to Pari D, there's simply no comparlsonI. That's probably why most seniors .iare pleased with their current Part D plans. Earlier this year, the Kalser Family Founda. hton reported that more than eight in 10 seniors enrolled in the service are satisfied with the plan they picked; that their initial experiences have been positive; and three out of four would pick the same plan again. In fact, the drug benefit is actually offering more and better choices than anyone anticipated when Congress crallted the pro- gram. Although the government estimated liaot seniors would pay $37 ci morith in premiums for their Medicare drug coverage, tie average premium has turned oIut to be much lower just $25 a month.. Tliese choices have resulted in some great deals for health- care consumers. Some prescription drug. plans, for example. cost as little as S3 a month. Others eliminate the $250 deductible before coverage kicks in. Many plans are providing drug coverage in the infamous "donut hole" the gap in the standard plan where insurance coverage is interrupted between moderate and high drug expens- es. As a result, the majority of America's seniors 72 percent - now have some drug cover- age in the donut hole. Medicare Part D's success owes much to the many options it provides to beneficiaries. This holiday season, seniors who aren't fully satisfied with their coverage should take advantage ot those options by switching to the plan that's best for them. And for those who haven't signed up vel, this is the time. irace-Marie Turner is presi- dent of the Galen Institute, a research organization based in Alexandiia.

To better under'.tanid i ii legal issues presented in LAW MAT- TERS, it is helpful'to have a basic understanding of our coirntiliition- al form of government, the law and the courts. The extensive Introduc- tion to this book provides context to many of the stories contained herein. 'Itelve fictional short stories with a preface/introduction to eai h one that explains in detail the legal points being made in the story. Unlike most books with a general overall preface, usually in the beginning pages, Mr. Dantzler has written a preface for each story which precedes the story. Natural- ly, since the author is an attorney, these preface pieces are written to the letter of the law. E.ach one addresses a different facet of law, Rick's research relies heavily on Black's Law Dictionary, which is widely considered one ot the "Bibles" of la%. While the various characters you will meet are fic tional, one and ill, by thie liime the story has ended .ou will feel that you've come face to face \ iill each one of them. The seltings are real and all in Florida, and while the sit uations Rick's ciaraclers fi nd Law Matters a new book based on legal principals. themselves in could well be real also, they are not based on facts. Adding to the stories are Rick's "Author's Note", which appear, more or less, at the conclusion of each story. THE LAW: Definitions and Explanations are also included as are numerous Notable Quotes from any number of attorneys, judges, associate justices plus oth- ers in the "world of law" in one waN or another. Quotes are accu- rate to the letter and sources are lisledI for those who want to do theih own research. . Law Matters is illustrated throughout by Artist Paul Schultz - A book review whose studio is in Winter Haven. The art does not necessarily, specif- ically tie in with the stories; howev- er, Paul's artwork is such a valuable addition to the book that the appre- ciation of his art stands on its own. The many subjects of his work reflect Florida's nature as well as some historical landmarks. While this book was not written and probably was not intended to be used as a text book, neverthe- less it could well serve to be used in Florida high school classrooms to teach the beginning of an under- standing of law and how it can apply to our lives. In his Foreword, the author states: The law is of noble purpose. It is the great equalizer, the glue that holds together our republic, and its fair administration the differ- ence between civility'and anarchy. Devotion to the ideals of law makes us high-minded and raises our commitment to equality It .gives us a sense of place among God's order in '.lhe natural world, making us better stewards of the land and heltjinig us see more clearly our r'spoiinsibilities. It helps us be a belier neighliior. Rick lianlzleir 4-ew up in Florida spending 'I r-much limie as school would alliw hunting, fishing and enjoying the ntilural wonders of the Siunhinr State. He earned his law degree at the University of Florida. At age 26, he was elected to the Florida House of Representa- tives and was re-elected three times without opposition. serving until 1990 when he was elected to the Florida Senate. He is with Frost Tamayo Sessums & Aranda, PA. in Bartow, and is the coach of the Winter Haven High School Jr. Varsi- ty Football Team. When asked which "title" he prefers, he says, "Well, I like best being called Sena- tor, but I really like hearing the team call me 'Coach'." "His first book Under the Pan- ther Moon is a collection'of adven- turous tales with lessons suitable for all ages, also illustrated by Paul Schultz. Notable quote from Law Mat- ters: 'As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there's a twilight where everything remains seem- ingly unchanged and it is such twi- light that we must be aware of change in the air, however slight, lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness."

The first step in the shell remains hard, mold will drying process is the outer layer which takes only a week or so. The remaining drying not damage the gourd. process could take as long as three months. Gourds are easy to grow and decorate Smaller gourds make inter- esting-vases for dried flower arranging. Carved grape leaves at the top and ebony wood stain will make the gourd look like pottery. Birdhouse gourds are popu- lar as lawn decorations as well as for homes for the birds. They can be decorated using a number of methods including painting, staining, carving and woodburning such as this sunflower mod- eled by one from the garden. By D. Hamilton INI Decorative gourds, often seen at local craft fairs, are easy to grow in Florida. These plants, native to America, can be used to make col- orful holiday decorations, or can be turned into bird houses. Gourds have a rich past According to the American Gourd Society Web site, the first planting and use of gourds dates back thousands of years. Native Americans, Africans, and ancient Egyptians cultivated gourds for their usefulness as utensils, storage containers, musical instruments, and as decorative items. There are even legends and sto- ries of references to gourds in songs from the days of slavery. Slaves planning to make their way through to the Underground Rail- road to the north sang songs like, "Follow the drinking gourd." The "drinking gourd" referred to the Big- Dipper constellation which they would follow from the south, northwest from Mississippi to Alabama and eventually north to freedom. In some cultures, gourds are still used as they were in ancient Asia for medicinal purposes with high nutritional values in 'the seeds, roots, stems, leaves, and flowers. What is a Gourd?. Gourds are part of Cucurbita- ceous Family which includes pumpkins, squash, zucchini, mel- ons and cucumbers. It is the "fruit" produced from a vine having white blossoms, both male and female. The hard-shell variety has pock- ets of seeds which are attached to the inside of the gourd. As it dries out, the outer shell gets its' wood- like exterior and the seed pockets inside dry out and can. be shaken loose. There are many varieties of gourds numbering in the dozens. The most popular gourd shapes for arts and crafts, are bottle gourds, birdhouse gourds, kettle-shaped, pear, apple (which really looks like, an apple), and even a bushel gourd which can grow to 100 pounds. Grow your own Gourds are not difficult to grow, but you will need a large area away from any smaller more delicate plants as they tend to overpower anything in their path. Planting can begin as early as late January in South Florida with the first signs of life in just a couple of weeks. Space seeds at least four feet apart; planting one Seed about a half to three-quarters inch deep in a well-drained mound of soil. The plants will start to erupt bearing large, broad leaves. The vines will travel and tendrils will appear. If you have limited space, vines can be cut back at 10 feet before they begin to flower. 'Keep the main root of the plant watered daily, especial- ly during the hotter, drier months. (Here's a tip: Put a plant stake in the ground next to the rooted plant so that you can find it since the areas around flourishing gourds vines can get quite weedy). Fertilizers such as organic matter and stan- dard 6-6-6 seem to workwell giving the plants a 'boost' just before they bloom. Fertilizers with high nitro- gen content such as 10-10-10, will burn the broad'leaves. After the vines have blossomed, the gourds will take shape. It takes about two to three months for the smaller gourd vari- eties to complete their growth. Some of the larger varieties may take up to six months doubling every week before reaching their full size. Harvesting and drying gourds Gourds can be harvested from the vine when the stems turn brown or just left to dry right on the vines. It is not uncommon to see gourds drying in a field after the vines have died off. Gourds that have been cut from the vines at least four inches from the fruit, can also be dried on a wooden pallet until the seeds have dried oit inside. During the drying process, mold may grow on the gourds. A simple solution of one cup of regular bleach to five gallons of water would help to retard the mold from growing and also speed the drying process a bit. Rotate the gourds and wipe them down with' the bleach solution once a week as they dry. Be careful to.keep drying gourds from touching others. This will cause them to get 'rot spots' and could cause them to be unusable. Gourd crafts For craft purposes, scraping the outer greenish-colored layer off with a butter knife (not serrated edge), will give the dried gourds a creamy, light finish without all the mold spots. Take care not to cut into the gourd while scraping. It could cause the gourd to rot before it dries. Some gourds will take several weeks, even months to dry before the\ can be used. Aftet the gourds have dried, removing the seeds can be tricky, especially if you will be making a new home for birds. There are specific tools designed to clean out the inside materials including the seeds, how- ever, a simple small, narrow pry bar withh a handle works Well to loosen seeds and leftover dried pulp so that it can be emptied into a container. When cleaning out the- inside of the gourd, be sure to work, in an area that is well ventilated or use a dust mask to keep from inhal- ing the mold dust. Depending on what you plan to do with your dried gourds will, -determine how large the hole should be. If you plan to cut the hole to accommodate birds, the hole size ranges from just one and one-eighth inches in diameter up to two full inches. Some birds, such as robins will only nest in a cavity when they can see all around them. For this reason, larger arch-shaped openings cut into three sides of the gourd are preferred. Gourd birdhouses are also a favorite of the Purple Martin. The holes for this type of birdhouse require a special crescent shape to protect the inhabitants from other birds. There are many high speed cut- ting tools available to cut into the thick, hardened shell of a gourd. Drilling a center hole as a starter and cutting the rest of the hole out with a small powered carving tool gives great results. If you will be .hanging your gourd as a birdfeeder or house, be sure to drill a hole straight through about an inch or so from the top. Lightly sand the *surface and smooth the opening with fine-grit sandpaper. Decorate your gourds Decorating gourds can pose a problem how to decorate them? They can be decorated with nearly every medium. Gourds can be col- ored with stains; painted with- acrylics, enamels, pen and ink. They can also be carved with intri- cate patterns, and wood-burned. Even if \ ou're not an artist pat- terns and drawings can be trans- ferred onto the gourd by using transfer sheets. Coating the back of the drawing or picture with a char- coal pencil then, using a pen to go over the outline of the drawing will also transfer the image onto the gourd. The medium of choice will be up to the individual artist. Be sure if your gourd creation will be outside, to coat it with a clear polyurethane finish, repeated every year or so to help protect it from the elements. Decorated gourds will last for many years with just minimal care.'

The release includes test answer keys, a fact sheet explaining uses for the test and frequently asked questions. Released tests are identi- cal to the tests taken by students except for questions that will be used on future tests. Parents and teachers can use the released tests as additional resources to increase students' comfort level and famil- iarity .vith the FCAT. The online version of the test allows users to toggle between the test book and a page that displays. the correct answer to each ques- tion. In addition, the answer page provides the Sunshine State Stan- dard tested by the question and the percent of students who chose each answer. "We are fulfilling our commit- ment to increase the transparency and accountability ol our testing program," said Commissioner Winn. "This new\ interactive ver- sion will give the public a way to review the test questions and answers in an engaging and informative manner." Test questions are written according to specific guidelines developed by Florida educators. Questions are reviewed and revised by teachers,, curriculum experts and school and district administra- tors to ensure they are appropriate for the grade level tested. Each year, more than 500 classroom teachers, special education teachers, English language. learning instructors, administrators, curriculum special- ists, policy leaders, college and uni- versity experts, school board mem- bers and parents take part in the FCAT question review process. "While these tests can serve as excellent resources to teachers, parents and students, it is impor- tant to remember that these tests should never be used to drill stu- dents in preparation for next year's FCAT because these specific ques- tions will not be used again," added Commissioner Winn. Funding permitting, the Depart- ment of Education will again release more reading and mathe- matics tests next fall, along with the grade 8 science test.

Here in South Florida, they can also be used as outdoor landscape plants and grow into quite large shrubs. Poinsettias are native to Mexico and Central America, where they can grow to be 12 -15 feet tall. The poinsettia, Euphorbia pul- cherrima Willd., is a member of the Euphorbiaceae 6r spurge. family. The name poinsettia is in honor of Joel R. Poinsett of Greenville, South Carolina, who during his tenure as the United States Ambassador to Mexico, introduced this plant from Mexico in 1825. Poinsettias are some- times referred to as Christmas star, which is from its rosette like arrangement of brightly colored bracts that form at the ends of the stems in the winter. months around Christmas time. 'In Span- ish, the poinsettia is known. as floorr de pascuas.", The showy part of the poinset- tia, which is commonly referred to as the flower, actually consists of modified leaves which are cor- rectly called bracts. The bracts are typically red but can vary depend- m ing on the cultivar. Cultivars sport- ing pink, cream, white, pale green and even miNed colors have been, developed b\ plant breeders. The actual llowvers are insignificant lit-' tle nubs that are arranged above the colorful bracts in umbel-like groups consisting of a single female flower surrounded by a number of male flowers which are reduced to stamens only. Poinsettias are traditionally grown as pot plants for the Christ- mas holiday season. Poinsettias are often, used as- landscape plants in south and central Flori- da. Poinsettias are woody peren- nials and when grown outdoors usually begin blooming (bracts showing color) as early, as Thanksgiving. The colorful bracts are retained until Match or even later if the plants are not exposed to freezing temperatures. The purchase of a poinsettia is a once-a-year event for most peo- ple. Most people don't know- what to look for in a quality poin- settia. Here are a few basic tips on what to look for in a poinsettia. These pointers can male a differ- ence between a plant"that will Submitted photo/Eric Samora James Barrett, horticulturist with the University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, checks new vari- eties of poinsettias in Gainesville. In 2000, more than 20 new varieties were evaluated by researchers and consumers for commercial release. Some have tasty names such as Santa Claus Candy, Christmas Cookie and Plum Pudding. look good foi the season and one whose appeal quickly\ fades. II possible, select a plant that has green foliage nearly to the soil line. Older plants that have suf- . fered unfavorable conditions will have usually experienced exces- sihe teal drop Foliage drop can be caused by fluctuating tempera- tuies, gas fumes, soil problems, and plant pests. Next look in the center of the bracts and you will see the true flowers called cyathia This tiny cluster f flow- ers is one of the best indicators of a poinsettia's freshness. Select only plants with small tight green button like floral parts These little flowers will eventually develop into open Ilowers If the poinselltia is already producing pollen, the plant is past its peak. This indi- cates that a portion of the plants useful display\ life has already\ passed and the bra ts will begin fade early than a similar plant which has not yet begun produc- ing pollen. Poinsettia prices are normally based on the number of bracts and the size of the plant and bracts. Now that vNyou ha%\- selected or received a beautiful poinsettia or more, how do you care for it? Poinsettias can be kept looking attractive far into January or even February if properly cared for. Since most potted poinsettias are the product of the greenhouse, the\ should be provided as rnuch natural light as possible. At least six hours of bright, but not direct light is required for best results Poor light or a rapid change in light regime can cause leaf diop A\oid placing the plant near win- dows, doors, fans, and heating vents since poinsettias cannot tol- eiate drafts, which nia\ trigger leaf drop. Poinsettias prefer moist soil, so water reg-ularly. Over watering or allow i'ng the soil to dry out completely can cause lea es to drop. Poinsenias % ill do best in the more humid, areas of the home, such as the kitchen, otherwise they can be placed above but not in a tray of % satei to increase humidity It is also wise to place plants away from busy areas where they will be brushed against and bruised Foitunatelh, the newer varieties of poinsettia are fairly hardy and will tolerate a bit of abuse .,..

After this resting period, prune the plant back to about six to. eight inches high. Remove any remaining colored bracts and leave three to four green leaves per shoot and restart growth by watering and fertilizing with a bal- anced complete fertilizer every few weeks.. By May-June, the plant should display a lot of new growth. At this time, the poinset- tia should be transplanted to a 2-4 inch larger in diameter pot and all .the shoot tips pruned off. Two to three leaves should be left on each shoot. Fertilize every three to four weeks and keep the plant pinched back regularly until Sep- tember. In late September, the plant must be given a special dark treatment to promote flowering. PoinsetLias are among a group of plants known as short-day plants. Short-day plants require a, long dark period to initiate the for- mation of flower buds. Poinsettias need 9 to 10 hours of lilht \\ithil 14 to 15 hours of darkness to pro- mote flowering. In nature flower buds are set around Octobei as the night become increasingly longer. In the house, the short day a long night regime must be pro- duced artificially. This can be done by putting the plants in the closet or covering htem with a completely opaque cloth, a box or a black garbage bag. Poinset- tias are very linicky about pho- toperiod. Any interruption of the dark period may result in a failure to blossom. By December, the Slant should have initiated flower- in\, and the development of col- ored biacts. Many pink and bicol- or cultihars ma% revert to red or \vhite when grown inside. Once this occurs, the dark treatments can be stopped and the plants treated :ike normal house plants again. If handled properly, your poinsellita should produce beauti- lul blooms for Christmnas. I wish you all a Merry Christ- mas' and the best for the New Year.

Tips to help avoid holiday season over-spending WEST PALM BEACH If you are like most consumers, you will spend close to $800 .this year' on family, friends, coworkers and other important people in your life. Researchers cite decreasing gas prices, an optimistic employ- merit outlook, and healthy gains in the stock market as indicators, that we are ready to spend almost seven percent more than we did last year. In fact, the National Retail Federation 2006 Holiday Consumer Intentions and Actions Survey, conducted by BIG research for NRF, found that the average consumer plans to spend $791.10 this holiday season, up 7.2 percent from the previous year. "Getting caught up in the spirit of the holidays can quickly lead to overspending, if you aren't care- ful," said Jessica Cecere, presi- dent of Consumer, Credit Counsel- ing Service of Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast (CCCS). "For many consumers, the joy of the season is replaced by the struggle to make even minimum payments on credit cards used to purchase gifts." A little advanced planning can help shoppers pick out the perfect gift for the special people on their list and still stay within budget. CCCS offers tips to help con- sumers: Before you start shopping Develop a spending budget. Decide how much you can com- fortably spend on gifts, decora- tions, and entertainment without relying on credit cards to finance purchases. Studies show that people who use credit cards to buy gifts spend an average of 30 percent more than people who use cash. When you add in all the finance charges over months, or even years, your gift could cost you twice what you paid for it, or more. Be sure to factor in all the extra costs of gift wrap, cards and other holiday, accessories when developing your budget. And if you will be traveling this holiday season, don't forget to include the cost of travel, gaso- line, airfare, hotel stays, meals and entertainment. Make your list; check it twice Make a list of all the people you want to buy gifts for, includ- ing small gifts for babysitters, teachers, your mailman, etc. After completing your list, add the amount you would like to spend on each person, making sure that your total does not exceed the- spending limit you established. If it does, review and revise the list until you are within your budget spending. If you track your pur- chases as you make them, you might find you save money on some gifts and have more to allo- cate to others on your list Remember the best gifts are free Jot down gift ideas for the peo- ple on your list, keeping in mind that some of the most appreciat- ed gifts are not those that cost the most money, but are the most meaningful. Handmade gifts, such as calendars, photo albums, and framed children's artwork can provide a lifetime of smiles. Homemade baked goods are always a hit. For the note writer in the family, stationery and stamps make a great gift. A gardener will always appreciate a basket of gar- dening tools and seeds. And never underestimate the power of a sentimental letter, song, or poem for that special person on your list. These heartfelt 'gifts are often the perfect choice. Maybe the people on your gift' list would prefer a service to a tan- gible item. Who wouldn't like a commitment for getting the.car washed, a free night of babysit- ting, the garage or gutters cleaned, the lawn mowed, the dog walked or even the dinner cooked? Write,your gift of service out on a nice card or print it up on your computer. Sign, seal, wrap and deliver. Shop early and take advantage of sales Start shopping early and take advantage of sales on seasonal items and stock up for the holi- days, birthdays, and more. Check out retail sales, special discounts and' coupons in'circulars or newspapers and deals online. If, you know the model number of a specific piece of electronic equip- ment, you can watch the week- end sale ads for deals or use online comparison shopping sites to see where you might find the best deal. Sites such as www.pricegrabber.com, www.bizrate.com, and www.mysimon.com compare the prices of multiple retailers on the same item. You can then order items online or purchase them locally. As online retailers may run free shipping promo- tions, you might just save time and money ordering online. And don't forget about non-traditional retailers-thrift :stores, discount stores, consignment shops, and specialty stores might have just what you're looking for. Leave your credit cards at home, and if you do use them, use them wisely. It is very tempting to spend more than you've planned, espe- cially if you're rushed for time and feeling the stress of holiday shopping. Leaving your credit cards at home will help ensure that you will stick to your budg- et, even if it means spending a lit- tle more time looking for the right gift. There are occasions when paying by credit is necessary , such as online purchases, or air- line tickets. There are special pro- tections for credit card purchas- es, such as chargeback rights, and the ability to dispute items not deli ered as promised, so think strategically when to use vour cards. Use cards with the lowest interest rate and. ideally, only spend what .ou can afford to pay oft \\hen the bills come in. Cranberry substitute is easy to grow By Mickie Anderson University of Florida GAINESVILLE, Fla. It's relat- ed to okra, is officially a hibiscus and tastes a lot like cranberry. University of Florida extension officials say this Southern-style cranberry substitute is soreasy to grow; just about anyone can do it. And if that's not enough, it's an attractive ornamental plant that boasts green leaves, delicate off-' %white flowers and red stems and would boost any garden-even if you don't use it to make a spicy Thanksgiving beverage, cranber- ry-style sauce, wine or jelly.

The schedule posters would be in full color and would feature local business advertising on the borders. - "The problem with this is that no one from our school was asked if we wanted posters," said Ms. Prowant, and, "even if we did, we do not have 3,000 businesses in Moore Haven or all of Glades County to place posters."

The need for Hendry Regional Medical Center of Clewiston to provide health care services in western Hendry County has been on the agenda for the past six years, according to the mayor. "As a board member for five years, and I know I speak also for board member Henry Spang of LaBelle, we have been asking our- selves, 'What have we been getting for our hospital tax dollars which have been in effect for many years?" Mayor Bengston said. According to proponents of the proposal, the idea of paying hospital tax dollars and receiving little in return has been a constant concern not only for board mem- bers but for many citizens of the LaBelle community. Now, however, it looks as though western Hendry County sion agent from Panama who grew up drinking the bright bur- gundy beverage. About nine years ago, Ferrer was given some seeds for the plant and encouraged Jim Hunter, an extension service- trained Master Gardener and Cas- selberry nursery owner, to try growing it. Since then, it's become tradi- tion for Hunter to bring the spicy drink to the county extension office's annual holiday parties. The plant produces pale yel- low flowers, which eventually fall. When they do, a bright, fleshy red calyx encloses the seed pod, which looks something like okra. Those calvxes are the secret to the flavor, said Ferrer. who's based in Seminole County. The plant requires almost no attention, Ferrer says. It's excep- The school would not profit from this company's sales. The high school already has a contract and can get free schedule posters.

Comments made after the film questioned the manner of how Florida Power and Light approached the county, and how county officials dealt with -their proposal. Another speaker ques- tioned who would be the main users of the electricity such as residents, small businesses or large industries. Efficiency of transmission lines was a concern, as well as mercury emissions and its impact on the lake. Also brought residents, as well as others includ- ing neighboring Glades County, will see physical results in the not too distant future as the agencies work together in the early plan- ning of the center. Numbers of LaBelle citizens have advocated the project, which will not only serve those in western Hendry County but also people in eastern Hendry County, Glades County,. and any others who happen to need medical services that the center is plan- ning to provide. The idea that the center will be open to all is a central theme in the planning effort. "After all, it's not going to be an exclusive club," said Mayor Bengston. "The people of LaBelle are very much in need of this facil- ity but so are others in the general area." Hendry Regional representa- tives say the project has gotten off on the right foot. "We have been working with Lee Memorial Hospital to the extent that we now have devel- oped a perform and have found that an Urgent Care Center is tionally hardy and needs little more than full sun and 100 con- secutive days of warm weather. Up north, where that might be iffy, Ferrer suggests the plant could be started in a greenhouse and later moved outside. The only real work, Hunter says, comes in harvesting the plant and cooking with it. He makes about 21/2 gallons of the drink at a time, which' requires a grocery bag full of the calvxes. And although each stem produces plenty of calyxes, har- vesting them can be somewhat tedious, Hunter said. "It's a little bit of work to make the drink and most bf us are.not- that persistent," he said. "But once you try it, you get hooked on he drink." Hunter said his wife has used the calyvxe~s a substitute in a ing companies out to make money off of advertising, and some have similar names; and some conduct business from for- eign countries. Local businesses and church- es should be careful. If it is your desire to help support local schools, then contact the school district first to see how they sug- gest you offer support.'

"The Hospital Board of Authority has recom- mended that this project move forward and the official approval took place at the board's meeting on November 2. Consequently, we are now in the process of get- ting an architectural drawing of a facility so that we can move to the next step." Ms. Wilson said her organiza- tion is working toward making the project a reality. "As of this date, this is a work in progress, while definitive plans are being developed," Ms. Wilson said. "We are seeking a suitable site, we are getting costs frdm an architect and operational costs are being reviewed." Craig R.

But none of the 5,000 plus that showed up at Cane Field on Fri- day night, were probably aware of what was in store for them. They got to watch one of the best defensive games in Clewiston High School Tiger history as Clewiston controlled the game clock on offense and the Tiger defense dominated the Chami- nade Lions in a 7-3 victory. The Tigers now get to take their 13-0 record to Dolphin Stadium in Miami Lakes on Saturday night for the Class 2A State Championship game against Jacksonville Bolles, also 13-0. The Chaminade contest fig- ured to be sparked with offensive and defensive explosions. Both squads were averaging over 30 points per game during the sea- son and they both had solid defenses. But on this night, the scoring just didn't happen as Chaminade offense had prob- lems moving the ball and the Tiger offense missed several scor- ing opportunities after good drives. The Tiger offense still had the will power to score, albeit just once, and that was enough. The real story goes way be ond the final score posted on the score- board as the Tigers and their fans went wild at the closing horn. This was a game won by the defense, the Tigers strong suit all season. On this night, it \\as senior linebacker Carl Whitehead's chance to shine. A solid per- former all year, hiiitehead was all over the field with nine tackles, three assists and two running sacks. But also like all season, it was the cohesive effort of the entire group that made the differ- ence. This is 15 or so Tigers who play better as a team than any group in recent memory. No real stars because none of them really want to be a star. They simply, want to play and win as a team They are not only extremely well coached but they absorb and con- sistently apply that coaching. Defensive ends Delvin Hughes (seven solos) and Johnny Jones (four tackles) also had great. nights, with Jones blocking a key fourth down pass attempt. Line- backer Collin Ricketts had four tackles and three assists. Corner- - back Omar Smith also played \well with five tackles and tackle \\ illie Armstrong had three, including a key quarterback sack. Senior line- backer David Pope added 3 tack- les, two assists and a running sack. Cornerback Jasper Huntei contributed 3 tackles, an assist, a running sack and an 18-yard intei- ception return. But the statistics are only just that. This was a team effort with defenders taking on Division I prospect blockers head- on all night and allowing team- mates to make the plays. The Tiger offense had 3 sus- tained drives and ate up huge chunks of clock time to keep the ball away from the Lions' offense. Unlimited Hours, No Contracts!

He \\as tack- led back at the Lions 13 \ ard line The second half opened with the Tigers rriaking the long sus- tained drive. The series was aided by a bizarre play. The Tigers, facing a fourth and long from midfield. sent Jared Combass into punt for- mation. Chaminade's Justin Wobodard fielded the punt and tzent do rwn the visitor's sideline :j 11111 for an apparent 95-yard touch- down. But, the Lions' pass rush had roughed Combass during the punt giving the Tigers an auto- matic first down. If the roughing the kicker penalty had not occurred, an illegal Chaminade block at the outset of the run would have still nullified the touchdown. The Tigers were also flagged on the play for shoving a Chaminade player in the back. The net result of all this was a five yard gain for the Tigers and an automatic first down to keep the drive alive. The drive finally sputtered out at the Lions' 19 and another field goal attempt from 37 yards was \vide to the left. The Lions got the ball with 3:07 left in the third and drove 46 yards, their only sustained drive of the night, to the Tiger 10. Kicker Lugue Barrientos then nailed a 27-yard field goal with 9:12 left in the game. After a two first down drive that used up about four min- utes from the clock, Clewiston punted the ball away but the defense held Charninade on three downs and had the ball punted right back to them. The offense then put together a 7 plan drive that ran the clock down to 1:12 before they punted. As the game clock ticked do% wn to the final sec- onds, a desperate pass attempt was picked oil by Tiger corner- back Jasper Hunter and returned 18 yards. Wilh only II seconds remain- ing and Charninade having no rime outs remaining, the Tigers went crazy in celebration. The on- field antics cost the Tigers with twmo unsportsmanlike conduct penalties. One as loi the ov'eiall celebration and another for a Tiger having temno:,ed his helmet while on the field The Tigers also had purposefully taken a dela\ of garne perinalt prio to their last punt in exercising their using up the clock strategy. Discounting those infractions, which were meaningless to the ouicorne of the game, the Tigers were onl\ aged 5 times for 30 yards "The defense has been the stiongpoint all season," TiRer coach Lair Antornacci said "These kids played their hliearts out tonight The\ ne\ei let up and to hold a great team like Charrii- nade to three points is fantastic." Tiger sophomore tailback Dai- iis HuL'hes had 101 yards on 21 tries -in the night and said, "Man, this means e\erithing to us. In e t\e~ building in town, tihey'e got our names and numbers on them. In Clewiston, football is in ou heart." The Tigers will need another top-level performance .in the championship game against undefeated Jacksonville Bolles. The Bulldogs have a solid passing attack and have really not been in a close conlesi all season. Game time will be 7 p.m. and a great turnout of fans is needed to cheer on the Tigers who return to the State Championship game for the first time since 2001. Earlier jour- neys to the.final level were in 1997 and in 1982, when the Tigers played Jefferson County to a 13- 13 tie and were co-champions. 1 2 3 4 Final Chaminade 0 0 0 3 3 Clewiston 0 7 0 0 7 Scoring: 20.

All of the hard work, from the off-sea- son lifting sessions to training camp and hard working practices, have paid off. Now for Pahokee and Glades Day, the teams have one last hur- dle to climb to being the state champions. For Glades Central, the team has to play two more games to cinch the state title., It may be possible to see all of the Glades teams to come out on top this weekend at Dolphin Stadi- um.

Pahokee rolled over Cardinal Mooney on the road, 48-0. It was done through their smart offense and defense games, as well as a great reduction in sloppy mistakes. Janoris Jenkins scored three rushing touchdowns, while Anthony Sheppard had two touch- down -passes and ran for another score. On defense, Pahokee forced two fumbles and made three inter- ceptions off Cardinal Mooney's Vinny Corona, including a Dwight Bentley pick off Corona at Paho- kee's 1-yard line as.

In all, Pahokee allowed only 21 total yards and gained 374 of their own. That's,a textbook recipe to get into the state championship game. Pahokee will play Ocala-Trinity Catholic on Dec. 2 in the Class 2B championship. " The Glades Day Gators also made their way into the champi- onship game by stomping over the Miami-Dade Christian Crusaders on the road, 34-12. The Gators are in the state championship for the first time in 10 years . The Galors had 264 rushing yards, led by Cedrick Taylor. They will play Tallahassee-North Florida Christian at 7 p.m. on Dec. 1 at Dol- phin Stadium. In Naples, the Glades Central Raiders .claimed their second straight Class 3A.regional title by beating Naples, 24-14. They will play Bartow in the state semifinal on Dec. 1. Bryan Mann had 113 passing yards, including a title-clinching fourth quarter touchdown pass to Travis 'Benjamin with 2:20 left. Mann added 63 rushing yards and a touchdown run. Running to the championship game is great for the Glades teams. Here's hoping that the three schools finish the job this week- end at Dolphin Stadium, with Glades Central doing its part to make to the big game at Dolphin Stadium the weekend of Dec. 8-9.

They have stories to share. "We all married and moved away with our husbands. Now that they have passed away, we all came home. The three of us live here in the same house we grew up in," said Lucille. Their parents, well-known in Pahokee, were Carmen Salvatore and Ella Woodward Salvatore. They moved there in 1917. But the story doesn't start there. According to Iris and Mary, their father, Carmen Salvatore came to " America-with his mother and his uncle from Ricighiano, Italy in 1900, when he was five years old. Not through Ellis Island, but through the Battery in New York, since they had papers. They settled in New Jersey where they worked to earn the funds for passage for the rest of the family to come to the United States. "Everyone in the family worked, starting when they were twelve or so," said Mary. "The boys worked delivering papers and things like that and I know one of my great- aunts had job sewing. Daddy had a real Italian father. Grandpa was the kind that if you left home with a dime, you'd better comes home with twelve cents. Everyone worked and brought all their. money home." "After he came home from France after World War I, he worked in a paint store, then he heard there was really good work -stone work in Florida. Grandpa told him he would teach him to cut stone, so Daddy came down to Florida, to Coral Gables and worked on the mansion, Vizcaya," said Iris., "He met Mama down there at the beach one day. They didn't know each other's names, but later they told us, 'When I saw him, I knew that was the man I am going to marry' and Daddy said' the same thing. So they were married in 1917 when Mama was 16 and Daddy was 22. "Mama invited Daddy to Sunday lunch one time, the family wasn't home so she asked her uncle if she could bring Daddy to his house and they would have lunch with him. But her uncle said, 'No, you invited 'Worry WON!ore/ wve Arve A So~ution Fr oT ]mi Sto ing, Build Your Dream Homi* Cas it & Pay off Credit Cardsf We Have Pa ced Loans That Others Couldn't!b Alan Kelly Mortgage ' 863*674.0091 VISIT US ON THE WEB AT WWW.OAKREALTYINC.COM PROPERTY MANAGEMENT RENTALS SALES A ( CINDY L.

The roots are up where the water used to come and they call trees like this mother trees," said Mary. The house built by and lived in by the Salvatores since 1917 can be seen in the background. Part of it was re-built by the Red Cross after the 1928 hurricane. Recollections A series about Florida's pioneers and history him, you feed him.' "Well she had a pumpkin, so she boiled it up and Daddy ate it. "When they moved here to Pahokee, Daddy would do any kind of work. He farmed some, and for awhile, he would drive up to Stuart (it was all sand roads) and bring back ice in a wagon. There was no ice here and he'd sell it. I remember him talking about all the times he'd get stuck in the sand or the mud and had to unload all the ice alongside the road to dig the wagon out, and then load it all up again to get it here." "Back then the lake was beauti- ful. We'd swim and play in it all the time and it was so clear, you could see your feet," said Mary. This house was so close to the water. When the wind blew this way, the house is up off the ground, you see, the water would come right under the house." "The wind and the action of the water brought the sand here to make up the ridge here. When the wind'blew the other way, we would go out and play on the sand- bars the lake left out there in back of the house," said Iris. "We wouldn't live anywhere else. We wish the dike weren't here. Mama really fought the dike, but what could you do? No one lis- tened. Now they're ruined the lake with the dike," said Iris. "' hate that dike," said Mary. "I'm not afraid of storms. When the news people kept asking us if we weren't scared, we told them, 'we aren't the scared kind of people!' I think they wanted us to say different." Pahokee, in the 1930s had 16 restaurants and 2,735 people to Belle Glade's 1,043. "The farmers all lived here with their families on the farms. Not like now, where the people who own the farms might not even live in Florida," said Mary. "But we were fine here, even during the Depression. Mama kept a garden and she always had chick- ens, sop we had chickens and eggs and vegetables. Daddy could always find work somehow. He'd see something needing doing and he'd just do it. We wouldn't be any- where else." Lic #2154 863) 634-6721 STOP LEG CRAMPS BEFORE THEY STOP YOU. Calcet S.le Calcium ,', = . MARK LEWIS CONSTRUCTION, P.L. STATE LICENSED BUILDING CONTRACTOR WITH 30.

Advertise your yard sale In the classl- fleds and make your clean no a breeze Do-It-Yourself Ideas By Pastor John Hicks First United Methodist Church Over the years, I have col- lected a number of nativity sets. I have them all over my house and office. Some are homemade and some are store bought. Some we have packed away which make their yearly appear- ance dur- ing this season of Christmas. One came John from a trip Hicks to th e H o ly ' Land and a number came from friends in the mission fields in Africa, Brazil, Korea., Costa Rica, Mexico, .and Belize .A number have come from friends and family. I even talked my mom into let- ting me have the nativity set we had in the house when I \ as growing up. They all tell the Christmas story in a slightly unique way. And not one, not a single one has John the Baptist as part of the story. Year after year, how- ever, when the church gathers in these days leading up to Christmas, \ve begin with the story of this wild prophel dressed in a garment of camel's hair preaching his message of holiday cheer: "Prepare the way of the Lord!" In the wisdom born of experience, the church has kept John the Baptist in the Christmas story. Without him, we would run the risk of keep- ing Christ in the cradle and maintaining a feel-good faith that makes no demands upon us. John's proclamation of our need to "Prepare," is an impor- tant reminder that the baby of Christmas grows up to be the Jesus of the cross and the Christ of the empty tomb. So in the midst of the holi- day shopping and the smell of cookies baking and the mail- boxes full of cards and the ver- sions of Jingle Bells and Here Comes Santa Claus playing in the stores, we read again the words of the prophet who preached by the banks of the Jordan: "Get ready! God is coming!" We need to take this to heart, for many' times, once we get beyond the walls of the church, the message of John the Baptist gets run over by the reindeer. We have a hard enough time keeping Christ in. Christmas, let alone John the Baptist! In many homes in America, Christmas doesn't happen in Bethlehem, but at the North Pole. In holiday thinking. Jesus seems to come in second to Santa Claus. If you think about it, the Santa story has some, 'good hews bad news' stuff going on. Remember the song "Santa Claus is coming to Town?" The song says: "He sees when you're sleeping. He knows if you're awake. He knows if you've been bad or good, so be good, for good- ness sake!" Every child knows that if we aren't good, when all of the other children get toys we will find a lump of coal in our stocking. Which list are you on this year? The nice list or the naughty list? With Santa, if you are on the wrong list, well, there's always next year. But with God it's different. God wants us to grow. God wants us to become. If we are on the naughty list, God encourages repentance and a changed and changing heart. Where there is repentance theie is also grace, andforgiveness, and God. That is the message of John the Baptist. In the wilderness of the sights and sound of Santa starting to surround me, I am grateful for the presence of John the Baptist crying out, "Prepare the way of the Lord." I'm grateful because some- times I forget that I am a work in progress. I may be a Christ- ian. I may even be a good Christian. Regardless, bless- ings still come in taking seri- ously John's reminder to pre- pare my heart for the Christ event which is the reason for the season. John tells us that God cares about how we live our lives. He reminds us that maybe our lives are not all that they should be. He gives us an opportunity to repent, to change, to get ready for our meeting with God. The season to come: Recalling its original meaning and true purpose By Rev. Samuel S. Thomas Ph.D.+ St. Martin's Church, Clewiston We have arrived at Decem- ber! The year has passed quickly for me and probably for most of you, too. Just think- ing about December means one thing to most all of us ... the great holidays. It is a time for mid-year vacations and, most of all, for Christmas. I've celebrated Christmas in different places and at different times in histo- ry; each with its own special meaning and each with a spe- cial awareness that some- thing had happened and was worth celebrating. Unfortu- nately, it is easy to forget about Christmas and what it means, where it has come irom, how it affects our lives. Some of my first Christ- mases were shared with my family during World War 11 and others during the years of pros- perity that followed. The Kore- an War brought more conflict, but \was followed by a long period of peace; cut short by the Viet Nam War. With Sep- tember 11. 2001, we were once more shaken out. of a period of calm into another conflict. Expressions across the nation have been strong and polarizing; people all have their thoughts on the best course of action and what real- ly needs to be done. One of the commentators has summa- rized our recent elections by saying that the war in Iraq was a deciding issue. The Christmas story is set against a similar background. The Romans controlled the known world by their Legions, the peach %\as a shaky one and the toleration felt by the people in the far corner of the Roman Empire where Bethle- hem is found was likely to be only temporary. 'The fears and threats felt, . the imposi- . lions in their lives, . the worries about the present and future wer., all too well known to SamuelS. those who Tas. lived in the Thomas Judean countryside. Years before, a psalmist found his hope in God. He Wrote that "God is our hope and strength, a very present help in trouble. (Psalm 46, v.1)" \\'e were not to fear,, no matter what, even if the earth be moved, if the waters. swelled, of the mountains s hook. In spite of it all, he wrote. "God is in the midst of her, therefore she shall not be removed, God shall help her and that right early (verse 5)" No matter what, God would come to be in the midst of things. His plea was that we would "be still and know that I am God ... the Lord of Hosts is with' us; the God of Jacob is our refuge." His forward-looking hope provided the strength that his people needed; no. matter what. God %\ill someday vindi- cate and bring peace, good will toward humanity. His message was to give us God's view of things. No matter N\ hat, G d's reign and His Will shall triumph. The Christmas message is about the beginning of the end of the old age and the bringing in of a new one. It is about our reason to have hope and our reason to cele- brate all of the gifts, the gath- erings, the parties, the din- ners, the visits, the greetings, the decorations and the spe- cial atmosphere are about one thing we have the rea- son to hope because God is in the midst of us: God shall help us and that right early. The baby in the manger is the symbol of that promise that the psalmist awaited to see ful- filled. The way we can make Christmas "work" for us is to see the promise fulfilled too. Our hope is in seeing through that Christmas child, the Lord, in the midst of us; reaching out to help. rsa,:hirin out to usher in a new year and a new day. The reason for a special place accorded to the Book of Psalms and God's hand at work. God was in the midst of them. They looked for Him and He did not disappoint them. He does not disappoint us when we look for Him; in the season which is upon us or any time in our lives.
