Respect outmoded

Several years ago, a stand-up comedian used the IIne '‘| get no respect.’’
That line, delivered with a hound dog expression, drew laughs every time.

Mr. Dangerfleld’s famous four-word analysis of himself seems to be very

MLA ‘Chris,’ Does ny calling him by his first name mean he Is Just one of the

| think that it [s one of our main problems in this contemporary society that
we no longer give respect to anyone. Maybe we should start with our leaders
who have the r fe} our futures. These people have
ths 108 and assignment of providing us employment and a peaceful, happy
society.

Should we start a new idea of treating men and women above us in
responsibility with respect, even ifat first it Is mere lip respect. Perhaps, then, It
will filter down, Perhaps we will treat our foremen and fellow worker with
respect which means he has & tougher row to hoe and we respect that fact.

A i ctrl it be terrific if kids would start saying ‘'Yes, Mum'’ and ‘‘No,

Then, finally, wouldn't it be a great change in our society if peopie’ began
respecting themselves and treating themselves as though they really were
important people?

1 know it is very difficult to respect someone who Is not worthy of respect
and that Includes ourselves. :

% “In the air there's a
x feeling of Christmas.” colored
‘lights glisten in crisp dark of
night. The familiar carols of
Christmas are beginning to
be heard. Store fronts are
decorated with all the colors
and good cheer of the season.
And, who knows? Maybé
winter will come back to our
area and leave the earth
blanketed in the pure white
of fresh fallen snow just in
time to make the Christmas
holiday complete.

There is another side of
Christmas which we all know
and some of us feel more
keenly than the i

to be sold out. Christmas
trees have to be obtained and
decorated. Traveling plans
must be finalized or the
house must be made ready
for visiting friends and rel-
atives.

Big Christmas dinners
must be planned and shop-
ping done for them. There
are special programs and
services to plan and attend.
Shopping to be.done the last
minute for a forgotten gift.
“And on every street corner
you hear Help!

Whatever happened to
“Peace on Earth, Good Will
to Men?” Maybe the beauty
of Chris is hing we

above. Christmas is a very
busy time which seems to tap
our personal energy sources
until sometimes we feel we
are having our own private
energy crisis.

Christmas cards have to
be in the mail by a certain
day or else they will. be a
little .early for next year.
Christmas presents have to
be decided upon and then
redecided upon when what
was decided upon was found

force on ourselves and our
families, The first Christmas
in Bethlehem nearly 2,000

_years ago was not a night

filled with colored lights, and
beautiful carols. Jesus was
obrn in a barn, not kept
comfortable and nice for
humans, but just a shelter for
the animals.

Yet the shepherds that
night, as the wise men later
on, were not concerned with
outward details but under-
stood the true beauty of the

event. Christ is born. The
Messiah has come. Imman-
uel, God is with us. So the
shepherds and wise men
worshipped the Christ child
who would restore man to
the fellowship with God that
He had intended from the
beginning of time. So Chris-
tians for 20 centuries have
worshipped this Christ and
shown their joy through

giving gifts as God gave us

His own Son. Through beau-
tiful music joyfully telling the
story and its meaning.
Through cheerfully decor-
ating their homes and busi-
nesses to show the merry
feeling of being an adopted
son of God. Being made an
heir to eternal life, all be-
cause of that lowly event
which began in Bethlehem so
long ago: the life and death of
Jesus Christ, Lord and Sa-
vior of the world.

Without the true mean-
ing of Christmas the beauty
of Christmas is forced on it
from the outside rather then
welling up from the inside of
each and everyone of us. May
the true Merryment of
Christmas be yours this year.
