CHRISTMAS MAKES FOOLS OF THOSE WHO CLAIM
THAT GOD IS DEAD
On Christmas Day a soldier in Vietnam, dirty with
jungle mud and blood, will team open a letter from home.
For a few moments he will forget his bone-aching fatigue,
remembering boyhood days with his family and the excite?
ment of getting and giving gifts.
The sour-sweat smell of barracks and the dank green
odor of jungle camps will be replaced by the smell of white
sheets on the old bed at home on Christmas Eve, the pung-
ence of Christmas trees and the aroma of food from mother's
kitchen. The illusion will be gone even before the letter is
finished and that soldier will long for peace, more than you
or I who have never lived on a battlefield can evei long for
peace, and he may weep for a meaning that has gone out
of his life.
As long as that soldier feels joy from no more than the
reading of a letter on a battlefield, or has hope expressed
as a longing for peace, or repents through tears for lost
meaning, we know that Go0, is'alive.

NO EGGS FROM DEAD GEESE
.There have'been considerable hurrahs for the mass of
legislation,. tbtotal of 349 public laws, enacted by the 89th
Congress in its first session. But, as a leading Washington,
D. C.,;snewspaper commented, "Little has been heard and not
much will be said about the cost No one has any idea
what dollar sign will have to .be put on these programs as
they come into full bloom in subsequent years."
There's also the question of where all the money will
come from. From taxes, of course-but some of the laws
recently passed or proposed may kill some of the geese that
lay those golden tax eggs. The National Small Business Asso-
ciation, an organization formed by owners of small, private
industries, has pointed out that government has nothing to
"give" in its programs unless it has first "taken" from some-
where. And it can't continue to take from private industries
unless the owners make enough profit to stay in business.
Talk to any small business operator and you will learn
that various taxes and burdensome government regulations
already are squeezing his profits more tightly day by day.
Yet the Administration is committed to legislation to increase
the present minimum wage of $1.25 an hour. Millions of
workers in small firms would be brought under the proposed
law for the first time; but many of them would lose their
jobs instead of gaining an increase in pay.
Take a company of 100 employees now being paid $1.50
an hour, and say the minimum wage is increased to the $2.00
an hour advocated by the powerful AFL-CIO. The employer's
payroll would rise $50 an hour, $400 a day, $2,000 a week,
and $104,000 a year. If the annual profit has averaged only
$50,000, then the company must lay off workers and increase
its prices, provided competition will permit.
The proposed new minimum wage law could easily
trigger bankruptcy or voluntary closing of thousands of small
firms. Thus it would close doors of opportunity for the un-
skilled worker, instead of opening them.

FALSE WITNESS
One of the disturbing signs of these times is the readiness
of some supposedly intelligent and responsible persons to
accept and publicize, without question, an accused lawbreak-
.etr*S claim that he was abused by the police. Take the case
'in tason,' Mississippi; last Juine, when several hundred
persons were arrested while picketing the State Legislature,
for parading without permit and refusing to disperse when
so ordered. Agents of the U.S. Justice Department, "civil
rights" attorneys and representatives of national news media
were on hand during arrest and confinement of the demon-
strators. None of them reported any undue force used by
the police. But then a 3-man committee from the National
Council of Churches talked with demonstrator-prisoners for
only two hours (by their own statements), and thereafter


tigated 1,787 such allegations this year. Only 13 were four
to warrant indictments. It is understandable that an ac
caused lawbreaker might in turn accuse the police of mistrea
ing him. But when clergymen, newsmen and public official
promote charges of police brutality without first making su
of the facts, there is reason for the rest of us to question
either their intelligence or their motives.

which it seemed to represent-all without checking or wait-

charges against the Jackson police. Meanwhile, the Mayor
of Jackson and Mississippi State officials were demanding a

That investigation was completed many weeks ago, and
not one single charge aganist the Jackson police has been
filed by the Justice Department. But we haven't seen any
banner headlines announcing their exoneration of the NCC
group's accusations. We've heard no apologies or corrections
from any of the commentators or Congressmen who propa-
gated those false stories across the nation. Nor have we seen
any sign that those "clergymen" who made up the NCC com-
mittee have done anything to atone for bearing false witness
against the policemen of that Southern city.
There is a warning note in all this for every community
in the land. While the Southern states and communities have
been the main targets so far, false charges of police brutality
are now being made in other areas, too. The FBI has inves-

The Herald Angels Sing!" in 1739.
In his first version the carol began,
"Hark, how all the welkin rings,"
according to World Book Encyclo-
pedia.

Christmas Caroling Is Practice That

Is Almost As Old As Christmas Itself


Christmas caroing is almost as
old as Christmas itself-though not
in the form we know it.
An early historian wrote that in
the Second Century the bishop
of Rome urged his people to sing
"in celebration of our Lord."
Christmas hymns go back to the
Fifth Century, when most of them
were written in Latin.
St. Francis of Assissi is regarded
as the father of caroling as we
know it, according to World Book
Encyclopedia. In 1223, St. Francis
placed a creche (miniature Nativ-
ity scene), in a hermitage in Grec-
choi, Italy.
After this many churches began
displaying a Nativity scene at
Christmas, and soon the people be-
gan acting out the Christmas story.
The actors composed carols to sing
with their Nativity plays and after
the plays would stroll down the
street, singing. In that way,'street
caroling was born.
Joheph Mohr ,a pastor in Obern-
dorf, Austria, composed "Stille
Nacht," or "Silent Night," on
Christmas Eve, 1818. Franz Grube,
the local schoolmaster and organ-
ist, composed the munic the same
day, and the hymn was sung for
the first time at Midnight Mass
that night.
SCharles Wesley, brother of John
Wesley, wrote, "Hark, The Herald
Angels Sing!" in 1739. Phillips
Brooks, a noted Boston clergyman,
wrote "O Little Town of Bethle-
hem" in 1868 after visiting Bethle-
hem.
Though not a carpl, Handel's no-
ble "Messiah" is a Christmas tra-
dition. It first was performed in
Dublin in 1742. "Joy to the World,"
written in the early 18th Century
by Isaac Watts, was set to the
music of a segment of the "Mes-
siah." "While Shepherds Watched
Their Flocks by Night," written in
1703 by Nahun Ttate, was set to
music taken from "Siroe," an opera
by Handel.
No one knows who wrote "The

First Noel." It first appeared in
print in 1833 in a book called
"Christmas Carols Ancient and
Modern," and is believed to be
very old.
The author of "God Rest Ye
Merry, Gentlemen," also is un-
known, but he lived before Shakes-
peare.
So if you should go caroling this
Christmas season, think of other
carolers of years gone by, of the
people of Charles Dickens' time in
their beaver hats and cutaway
coats, of English villagers in hose
and jerkin, of good St. Francis,
and of the priests of the time of
the Christian Roman Empire who,
before caroling as we know it ex-
isted, sang "in celebration of our
Lord."

straight in the desert a highway for
our God." This is the same mes-
sage used by John the Baptist,
when he proclaimed the coming of
our Lord Jesus Christ. Last but
not least in Zechariah, chapter
twelve, we read of the LORD (JE-
HOVAH) talking to the people of
Israel about the things he will do
in the coming days; declaring in
verse 10, that they shall look upon
him (JEHOVAH) whom they have
pierced.
To anyone, with an honest de-
sire to know the truth, I say, search
the' scriptures and you will only
find one person who fits the old
testament record, that is Jesus
Christ, who is Jehovah in human
flesh, via the virgin birth.
Your questions and comments
are welcome. Address your letter to
"Thus Saith the Lord," care of The
Star, Port St. Joe, Fla. Names will

sion accompanies the letter.

The "Messiah" oratorio, a Christ-
mas tradition, was composed by
George Frederick Handel in only
25 days ,according to World Book
Encyclopedia. It was first perform-
ed in 1742 in Dublin. A year later
King George II set the custom of
standing during the oratorio's "Hal-
leulujah Chorus."

One legend has it that
those who perish at mid-
night on the Eve of Christ-
mas will ascend to heaven;
another claims that eating
a dish composed of rice and
blackeyed peas, known as
Poor John, will guarantee
prosperity for the coming
year.
Tradition says that a
green Christmas portends a
white Easter and that when
Christmas falls on a Mon-
day, the winter will be long
and cold but when it falls on
a Wednesday, there will be
a splendid summer and a
beautiful harvest.
Another legend says that
the cock was the first to an-
nounce Christ's birth and
bhat ever sinee, the rooster


crows all night long on the
eve of Christmas.
New work begun during
Christmas week will never
prosper, one tradition has
it another cautions that
whatever is done on New
Year's Day will be done the
whole year through, so pay
no bills!
An especially lovely leg-
end is the one concerning
horses and barnyard ani-
mals, because their fore-
bears witnessed the nativ-
ity it is believed that horses
kneel at midnight on Christ-
mas Eve, while barnyard
animals have the gift of
speech.
The fact that there were
animals present in the man-
ger on the night of the
Christ child's birth is said
to be responsible for the
origin of the myth-that ani-
mals spoke on Christmas
Eve. Anglo-folklore gives
credence to the belief that
cattle in Devon. and Corn-
wall fell on their knees in
adoration and the bees sang
in their hives.

Roses and Mothers-In-Law Both

Often Prove to be Sticky Subjects


By'Hervey Sharpe, Editor, Florida
Agricultural Extension Service
Roses and mothers-in-law are of-
ten sticky subjects. But remember,
without either-this would be a
dull, drab world.
Often both have to be handled
with "gloved hands," but if they
are treated properly both will
bring enjoyment to home and the
garden.
Since gardening is a safer sub-
ject than domestic affairs, here are
a few tips on roses. -However, you

might keep in mind that a dozen
roses and a few kind words often
soften the damage of a domestic
tiff.
Roses come in two main classes;
dormant (bare roots) and container
grown. The dormant rose plants
are graded number 1, number 1
and number 2 based on size and
number of canes. Grade number 1
is best.
Container-grown rose plants are
"Florida Fancy No. 1"; and "Flor-
ida Fancy No. 2." Plants which do
not conform to standards for one
of these grades are not eligible for
any Florida grade label. The best
quality rose-plant obtainable is a
"Florida Fancy" container-grown
plant with Rosa fortuniana root-
stock.
For those who lack a definite
green thumb ,try the potted-stock
as these plants are almost sure to
live.
Varieties to plant can be a prob-
lem. Old-fashioned favorites have
advantages over the newcomers.
These include such roses as Louis
Philippe, Summer Sunshine, Moth-
ersday and Queen Elizabeth.

SAY YOU SAW IT IN THE STAR




Mce 6?a



Three men ride their cam-
els over a sea of sand; a
dazzling star hangs above a
town huddled in sleep. On
the hillsides, sheep stir and
fires of shepherds twinkle.
A single light burns in the
town.
Everyone will recognize
this word-picture of the
first Christmas. But when
was it, exactly?
St. Matthew tells us that
Jesus was born when Herod
was king of Judea and re-
lates the story of Herod's
plan to kill the Infant King.
He writes that Herod called
for the death of all boys
"from two years old and
under, according to the time
which he had diligently in-
quired of the Wise Men."
They had told Herod of
seeing the Star of Bethle-
hem two years before the
tyrant had ordered the
"slaughter of the inno-
cents."
Scholars have established
that Herod reigned from 37
B.C. until his death in 4
B.C. Since we know that
Herod died in 4 B.C., Jesus
must have been born at
least two years earlier.
The great German astron-
omer, John Kepler, sug-
gested that Christ had been
born in 7 B.C., during a con-
junction of the planets
Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.
However, it has been learn-
ed that Mars, Jupiter and
Saturn could not have been
bright enough to be visible
in 7 B.C.
And yet, 7 B.C. is regarded
by many to have been the
year of Christ's birth. Ac-
cording to the Bible, Christ
was born during one of the
great census takings of the
Roman Empire. In addition,
Rome's history records that
an empire-wide taxation
was begun in 8 B.C. It is not
unlikely that the census and
taxing were held at the
same time since one could
serve as a check on the
other.
Since Judea was on the
frontier of the Roman Em-
pire, it must have taken the
tax and census takers about
two years to work their way
there. We know that Jesus
was at least two years old
at the time of Herod's death
in 4 B.C. Allowing a year
and a half or two years for
the Roman officials to reach
Bethlehem, and subtracting
at least two years from 4
B.C., we can narrow the
Nativity to 7 or 6 B.C.

Let Travel' to the Land



Where the Christ was Born


If Christ and His disciples
were to visit the Holy Land
today, they'would find many
parts of it unchanged. The
hill on which Bethlehem
stands looks as it did almost
two thousand years ago
when Christmas came into
being, ,as do many other
spots we've often read
about in Sunday School.


On Christmas Eve, many
pilgrims attend midnight
mass in the Church of St.
Catherine which is attached
to the Church of the Nativ-
ity, built over the rocky
grotto believed to be the
birthplace of Christ.

ing to the University of Florida's
Bureau of Economic and Busi-

The University announced Tues-
day of last week that figures, bas-
ed on July 1 population, show
Dade County remained the state's
most populous with 1,089,200.
The Miami area is followed by

County's space age boom helped
hike the county's population from
111,400 in 1960 to 192,200 this year.
That's an increase of 72.5 per cent.
Other counties in leading the
percentage increase are Collier
59.5, Charlotte 56.3, Okeechobee

rise in population.
Elise C. Johnes, research assis-

the totals. One involved a study of
school enrollment in grades two

Stan Musial says



"Persons under 21



meed understanding



of Florida Laws"


In a message to Florida -parents today, Stan Musial
.--plained the importance of understanding the laws of
i. iorida.
He said that all State laws are important, but he
emphasized one law which specifically concerns persons
under 21.
"It is unlawful in Florida for a person under the.
age of 21 to have. in his or her possession alcoholic
beverages of any kind."


What happens when the
law is broken?
Persons under the age of 17
are turned over to the juvenile
authorities, and a juvenile rec-
ord is established by the court.
Persons over the age of 17
are arrested. They are finger-
printed by officers, and a set of
these fingerprints are sent to
the Federal Bureau of Investi-
gation in Washington, D. C.,
where they become a part of
the violator's permanent crimi-
nal record. The violator can be
fined or imprisoned. The pun-
ishment can be as much as 6
months in jail or a $500 fine.
What are the far-reaching
consequences?
When considering students
for admission, registrars of col-
leges must first consider those
students of highest character.
Boys and girls who have an
arrest record for possessing al-
coholic beverages before 21 will
have a difficult time making
the entrance lists.
Chances for military service
could be impaired. Persons with
criminal records must receive
special waivers before being ac-
cepted by the military services.
And it will be extremely diffi-
cult to enter Officers Candi-
date School.
A man or woman under 21
will find that this arrest record
will hurt his chosen career.
Advancement will come more
slowly, if at all.
SWho else is hurt?

misrepresents his age and buys

alcoholic beverages from a re-
tailer, if the retailer is con-
victed, he could lose his bever-
age license and his business,
even though he was not aware
he was selling to a minor. The
source of support for his wife
and family could be taken
away.
"Make sure that your
son or daughter under 21
fully understands this
Florida law. To protect the
future of young men and
women, encourage them
not to drink before 21."

ment and the Florida Volunteer
Group for Understanding through
the courtesy of this newspaper.

his work and none have been able

He first erected a huge circular
wall around the castle proper, us- .
ing massive blocks of coral rock,
each weighing several tons.
Then he built a 160-ton rock I

winding staircase carved of rock,
typical of medieval castles, led
down to a subterranean well. .I '
Outside Leedskalnin raised 20
foot high crescents atop the wall,
and set a 20-ton obelisk in placl

November, we transierread $3. II4L-
lion from the general revenue fund
to the intangible tax fund.
"The county tax collectors un-
doubtedly have large amounts of
money collected from intangible
taxes in November. It is expected
that they will remit a sufficient
amount to replace the amount of
the transfers which were made into
the general revenue fund.
"We also expect to collect ap-
proximately $1 million in the gen-
eral revenue fund from cigarette
taxes resulting from sales outside
municipalities.
"With those expected additions
to income ,and the return of the
transfer funds, we can expect to
maintain December equalizations
transfers at a minimum level."
There were equalization trans-
fers of $30 million through Novem-
ber 30 ,to bolster the actual gen-
eral revenue fund receipts of $172,-
669997. Those two sources provid-
ed a total of $224,841,731 available
in the general revenue fund.
Against that, Dickinson reported,
state agencies were authorized dis-
bursements of $218,603,270 between
July 1 and December 1.

The Magi Symbolized


Ancient Priestly Caste


In New Testament history
according to Matthew, the
narrative of the three Magi
who followed a star to Beth-
lehem in search of the In-
fant Jesus describes them
simply as three "wise men
from the east" It was not
until the 2nd century, ac-
cording to the Book of
Knowledge, that they were
known as "kings" in a
charming legend that traces
its origin to that time.
The Magi originally rep-
resented the priestly caste
of the ancient Persian Zoro-
astrian religion. As this re-
ligion moved westward, it
came into contact with Bab-
yionian beliefs and prac-
tices and thus derived a
strong interest in astrology
demonology and magic.


identical with astrology and
magic in the popular view
This explains the use of the
term "wise men" in Mat-
thew's New Testament ac-
count, for the three men
described therein were ac-
tually astrologers and not
kings.
The Empress Helena is
credited with having
brought the bones of the
Wise Men to Constantin-
ople; from there they were
removed to Milan and after-
ward to Cologne. This ex-
plains why the Wise Men
were often referred to as
the Three Kings of Cologne.
Their crowns are exhibited
in the Chapel of the Three
Kings in Cologne Cathedral,
which is supposed to con-
tain their relics.
