Let 'em Stand Up


As of this writing there. still hasn't been a word said'
about peace at the conference in Paris. The Americans,
Hanoi, the VC and Saigon representatives are all on hand
but neither seems to want the other there.
While the objective is to bring about peace and save
further bloodshed in the rice paddies and jungles of Viet-
nam, about all the delegates have been able to talk about
thus far is "saving of face", and the face of Hanoi in
particular. The Americans don't have this problem star-
ing them in the fact. One has only to witness the current
swift kicks in the. nether regions, to see that we have turn-
ed our "face" away 1png ago. To us, this makes us big-
ger men for having endured. To the Oriental, losing of
face is the supreme insult or degradation.
So the problem is just like it is with our races in the
United States, neither understanding the feelings of or
what "bugs" the other.
The major problem at hand at the present time in
Paris, is whether (1) to have a square table with each of
the four representatives occupying one side; (2) to have
one rectangular tsble with the V. S. and Saigon on one
side and Hanoi and the Vietcong on the other; (3) a round
table with the four combatants (or negotiators) occupy-
ing equal space around the table; etc., etc.
And then, on the other hand, we have the Vietnamese
insisting that the Vietcong doesn't exist their prob-
lem comes from Hanoi, they claim, and Hanoi should be
responsible for and answer to the. problem; not some
"myth" labeled "Vietcong"' much as we talk about gob-
lins in ou- country.
Through it all America wrings its hands in despair,
at the eccentricities of the Oriental thinking and is trying


its besf to get to the conference table regardless of its
shape almost.
We say "almost" because the U. S. delegation has been
toylag around 'i.ith the North Vietnamese in Paris for
quite a few months now and is apparently beginning to
adopt some of the Oriental way of thinking on how things
are done and the gentle art of "saving face". The Ameri-
cans have come out with the suggestion that two rectangu-
lar tables be placed in the meeting hall, facing each other
with the Americans and Saigon at one table and Hanoi
and the Vietcong at the other. The tables are to be just
alike and the same size.
The ordinary man in the street seems to .care less
what shape the tables are, or who sits where. They are-
concerned only with getting this going so we can see what
the future holds. In order to find out, serious talking
about whether or not we are going to agree to have peace
must come 'about.
We say that in order to get things started and
once started, to be brought to a conclusion without end-
less conversation and delays over protocol, we should let
them all stand up. There is nothing that will bring a
meeting to a successful close sooner than a hurting corn
or bunion. Standing, everyone could shuffle back and
forth on their feet .and stand wherever they wanted ,to...
The speeches would .be shorter the meetings shorter.
But you must agree, standing up would solve this seating ,
hassle right now. Or, it might start a new one, since the
Vietnamese are shorter than the Americans and, there,
again, we might get right back into that question of "face"
with the Vietcong and Hanoi delegates demanding an
apple box to stand on. .


Give A "Merry Christmas"


Every Christmas 6one of the more humorous colum-
ists will compile a list of ridiculous gifts that can be given
to the man or woman who has everything. Other writers
go to the extreme 'of finding unusual and expensive gifts
that one can give if he has the money and, in many in-
,stances, a warped sense of humor.
These odd-ball gifts include tiger cubs, elephants, gir-
affes, fur-lined automobiles, 'ear rings with live goldfish
swimming in. globes, e~tc. The isting- of these unusual
gifts probably serve more worth in titillating the funny-
bone of those who will never ,e able to afford them, more
than they will be used to actually furnish gift material for
the man who has everything. They do sound' ridiculous
,nd one usually gets a twitter or two out of reading'ksulah
nonsensical suggestions..: ,.
There's one gift, however, that use to -be 'common,
but is fading from the Christmas season. It was a v,iy
economical gift, too. One could say that it hardly cost a
thing. But it is becoming extinct, it seenis, and by its


rarity, its value enhances.
This rare gift is merely the saying of "Merry Christ-
mas" to everyone we meet during the yule season.
The practice of greeting everyone, friend. and stranger
alike with the words "Merry Christmas" is probably re-
membered now as merely another quaint old custom that
went the way of the next door neighbor and an hour or
two spent on the front porch rocking and chewing the fat.
The gift is still valuable, we find. The other day,
someone wished us a "Merry Christmas", aloud and unso-
licited, and it wasn't a store clerk who 'had just made a
gift sale, either. We have to admit that the idea didn't
originate with us to initiate the heretofore common greet-
ing. We were reduced to echoing the greeting and try-
,ing to put more than a returned courtesy sound in our re-
sponse.
It's impossible for you, or we, to give everyone we
care for, 'a gift for Christmas. But we can all give that
valuable and still appreciated gift; a hearty "Merry
Christmas" to each and every one. .,4:

" The Hong Kong flu is with us.
al- They tell us out at the Municipal Hospital that it looks like the
S hospital will be full of. patients for Christmas principally with
to tie Hong Kong flu and several "blessed events" scheduled for that
particular week.
to But this flu bit has the whole nation on edge, We see where
at over 700 have died of the flu or side-effects of the disease. Even
0. such a famous personage as Tallula Biankhead died last week as
the result of pneumonia and the Hong Kong flu;
id While the Hong Kong flu is a serious thing, one. can't fail to
ns find a little humor there, too. It causes us to wonder what else
to these Orientals can find to make out of beer cans for export to
-. the U.S.A.
re- \ *
aw The favorite game of the past few weeks has been the game
of second-guessing President-elect Richard M.' Nixon as to who.
re. he would appoint to his new cabinet. The game was, started when
se Nixon broke precedent and began to name his new cabinet before
.st his inauguration. The usual way is to accept polite resignations
W and fill the'"new posts" with new appointees.
od If Nixon will-maintain his take-charge attitude and continue
ts, to appoint good men to important posts, there may be some hope
es on the, horizon.
.n- Nixon was responsible-for the entertainment of a lot of peo-
rs pie with this new guessing game he was responsible for. Now,
if during the next four years he could balance the budget, pay off
just one, of the billions we owe and'still manage a small growth
rs factor in our nation, he would be responsible for a second game-
er that of searching for the genie bottle he disappears in at night.
li- *
)n- Some of our people were a big miffed at the lack of represen-
sa- station of the Sharks football squad-one of the most successful
li" in Northwest Florida-on the Tallahassee Democrat's Big Bend
football team selection. We get quite a few of the area newspa-
nt, pers printed hear-abouts, and some of them are wondering the
es same thing about their own teams.
S In all' fairness to the Democrat, we must point out that the
he Big Bend, team is also made up of players from Florida High, Leon
or and Rickards and. several other big schools in the area. Too, the
a Big Bend selections come from over 10' schools, which, in itself,
Is, would make selection of more than one or two players from one
m. team something of a rarity.
Rather than lack of Sharks on the Big Bend team being an
Lu- insult or oversight, we see it as a supreme compliment to our team.
si- Essentially, we had the same team this year that we had last
ew year, with a reverse record in the won-loss statistics. This practice of
on pointing a finger 'at two or three boys and saying "you're great"
its didn't do the job for Port St. Joe's team. There were no individual
he standouts. The Sharks won because they were a team, not because
Di- nine or ten boys stood on the field and let two or three do all the
work, get all the attention and reap all the glory. It takes more
character to'be a.member of a team than it does to be a prima
donna. And this is not written to take anything away from those
selected. They deserved the selection. But we are saying that the
rest of the team deserved such recognition, also, and of course, this '*
just wasn't possible.

Kay Says "Holy Christmas"



Giving Way to 'Merry Yule'


by RUSSEL KAY
There was a time when the
world celebrated a Holy ChriSt-
mas and gave its thoughts to;
;bowing heads in grateful thanks
for the gift of a Savior.
Then came the Merry Christ-
Smas which was m6re concerned
'with an. abundance of food and
drink aud perhaps a toy or two
for the 'children.
Now we have the Commercial
Christmas concerned primarily
with profit from the sale of ev-
erything from cards to Cadillacs.
Chamber of commerce officials.
and merchant associations gloat
over mounting sales records.
Newspapers, magazines and ra-
dio aid television smack; their
lips oter the increased sale of
space and time.,
We used to feed the Christians
to the, lions, now we feed them
to the' raveonous commercial
wolves that are parked on every


doorstep, sniffing and drooling.
Santa Claus has replaced the
Savior and the Christmas tree
has replaced the Cross, Few stop'
to consider what Christmas real-
ly means. While our churches
still 'hold service on Christmas,
day, most of-their parishioners-
are too occupied with egg-nog
and cocktail parties to attend.
The fast buck seekers have a
field day. Groups go if m house
to house singing Christmas car-
ols; and collecting. Novelty stores
do a land office business selling
cards and religious mementos.
Just about every so-called char-
ity organization puts the pres-
sure on prospects feeling that
hearts at this season will be mel-
16w and victims will fall for any,
gag.
The battle cry is "Give, Give,
.Give". Never mind who you
'think you are giving to, JUST'
GIVE, money preferred but any-

STHE STAR, Port St. Joe, Florida THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1968


Each'year the drug industry Invests millions of dollars in
research to support the nearly 800 million prescriptions
filled yearly by pharmacists throughout the country. This
investment results in new "wonder drugs" which let us
live our lives longer, healthier. Of the 275 million dollars
invested last year more than' 130 million dollars went for
quality control research. Improved precision measuring
and compounding instruments were-developed to make
even more certain you receive exactly what your doctor
prescribes. And the investment also went for developing
improved methods of production. As the methods of manu-
facturing- improve, the price of the bulk-drug decreases
I This saving is passed on to you in lower prescription prices.
