Christmas Al
Dunbar Hi School
By l.. M. Christophe, ST.

Christmas is perhaps one of the
most universally observed holt
days. Probably we give over to
generous impulses more complete
ly at Christmas time than at any
other occasion. All of us enjoy
giving and receiving Each of
us is able to give in spirit if not
in material goods.
ST, Nicholas lived during the
fourth century. He was very rich
and enjoyed giving presents with
out taking any credit. Finally he
was discovered, and from that
day forward, when people receiv-
ed gifts from unknown sources,
St Nicholas received the credit.
The Yuletide spirit is mounting
around Dunbar. The student coun-
Gil members are working like lit
tie beavers inside and outside the
building. Homerooms and service
groups are active decorating doors,
and making bulletin boards at
tractive. Each one trying to make
his area more beautiful than the
other.
The public is invited to attend
the Christmas assemblies at 1870
and 2:30 p m December 18th. A
movie of Christmas Carols will be
shown and the A Capella choir
will render special music. TIL e
high school and junior college
choirs will participate in the down
town parade of the Ministerial
Alliance on December 18th
The faculty and students Of
Dunbar high school and junior
college wish for each of you a
Merry Christmas and a Happy
New Year.

Arabs Still Trust
United States

Commenting editorially on the
appointment of John Foster Dull
les, as the new Secretary of
State, Al Akhbar says that lis
appointment has aroused consid-
cradle interest in the Middle East
in view of American influence
over the political affairs of that
area"
Although it may be early yet
to forecast the new American pol
icy towards the Middle East" the
paper continues, I'VE hope that
Mr. Dulles will appreciate that
the Arab States in the light
Of their past experience no
longer believe in word spinning
unless the words are suited to
action.
so should the new secretary be
interested in restoring the good
name of his country in this part
of the world, he ought to follow
the traditional trend of American
diplomacy, which enjoins true be-
lief in international freedom and
the rights Of peoples for self-de-
termination.
"As a matter of fact, the East
ern countries have lost faith in
Britain and France because OF
their imperialistic attitude and
their lack Of respect for their own
promises. But so far, we still trust
the United States and believe in
its message of peace and freedom.
