HAPPY HOLIDAY Christmas 1972 Of all the holidays, this season of the year has a special quality that is both intangible and very real: Being home for Christmas is a Universal desire. Brotherhood is proclaimed and ^practiced more than at any other time. Differences are subdued and all of us concentrate more on how we are alike than on how we are not alike. We think more about what we can do for somebody, rather than what we can do to somebody. Each of us has his or her own anticipated excitements and the o|dds are better than usual that realizations will live up to expectations. ' _For this period, whatever our age, we all become young in attitude; whatever our faith, we share the holiday spirit; whether our collars are white or blue, we-can resolve to do something special for our fellow human beings to add to the joy of living. . :The ridiculoUsj postUre_of thpse who, loudly .assert focHS; rec&fltiy by Rev. Gary R. Gael, pastor of the Trinity Lutheran Cinuroh cf Spencer, Iowa in a few brief .remarks before the Metropolitan Dinner Club of Greater Spencer, m Northwest, Iowa. 'iV.'.-jSaid Rev. Gabel: v"We keep forgetting all, of those who lived before us, We keep forgetting those who lived, and worked, and prayed, and sang, and built long before we were bom. i "We commit the sin of assuming that everything begins with us. "We drink from wells that we did not find. "We eat food from farmland we did not develop. ■ "We worship in churches we did not organize, or build. "We enjoy freedoms which we have not earned. "We should be grateful for our heritage, and turn our minds in grateful appreciation to those who lived iji another day, and under vastly different circumstances, po that we can live a better life today. We should be acutely aware of the peop?e from divergent backgrounds, traditions, cultures, from many nations and of iriany colors who forged out this nation so that we cah live a better life today. We are thus enabled to conquer the elements together, but not alone, not without each other, and not without God." vtThe assorted hippie-yippie-.slo.ppies who rant and raye.against "the establishment lack the intellegesnce to, .comprehend the simple truth pointed out by Pastor Gabe. If others had not established that which we have, today, and if dedicated Americans did not today maintain our "establishment", the hip-yips would either starve to death or die from exposure in a matter of,jjfays. ' ia' ' ." •' :,. . •rrffi \„Jt, , '.,'. i of Stamp Licking It is well known that, speaking generally and with . due regard to special tastes, the flavor of postage stamp gliteiis not one of the world's notable gourmet delights. Sohe U.S. Postal Fervice patrons have on occasion been heard to come right out with the view thaj the glue tastes awful. i >Jrhis opinion has now been given formal voice by Df. Rdbert Shaw -f New Ipswich, N.H;, a physician concerned about the welfare of stamp tickers; He finds tpj^jiue's flavor rather nasty, all right, but gives priority to health aspects of the matter, to wit: "The st-thlps are unsanitary, contain unknown chemicals which are virtually unregulated, and are particularly distasteful." To c'inch it he added this observation in hisilatters to .pertinent federal agencies: "In fact, this year'above all the stamps taste terrible, are larger than normal, and contain more glue." v J fo be quite honest about it, the stamp-licking risks fa'ipne's health had never occurred to us. Dr. Shaw n-j-ai* be right, though: perhaps, germs and mysterious cemicals make it hazardous. What the world clearly ripens, at least until the Postal' Service sanitizes and purifies its glue and offers it in .six tasty flavors, is a patented automatic stamp licker.
