 The Christmas Season has giv- en us new courage. And with 1t a new determination to help make this coming year of 1855 a Happy and Prosperous one Most of us can look back and be thankful for the great creative force of cleo tricity at our disposal while still others still look forward to soon having it as we do the telephone service in the spring. Each year brings forth it's improvements and brings us closer to a fuller ard more rich life We are pioneers in a new country. At Christmas time especially we receive cards and gifts which bring our past friends and neighbors closer.
 Truly in Alaska there is an ab- undance of native Christmas trees of the familiar spruce ever green variety. We were thankful to go out and cut one down twenty five feet from the house. We did not trim it in the tradi- tional fashion, but it did look pretty. Our neighbors Al and Mary Ramon had a nice trim med and lighted tree for their family. The paternal grandmoth- CT who visited them last summer sent each of the children beau tifully hand tailored coat with hood for Christmas. Mr. Miller was their guest for Christmas dinner.
 We became acquainted with a new neighbor at mile GA who gave us ride Christmas day to pick up our mail, His name is White. He lives on the highway same side and not far from Ritchies. The James McPherson family was very happy alone except for their new boarder LeRoy who was spending his fifth Christmas away from home The children were playing with their numerous toys and Mrs. McPherson, the happy grandmother, showed us gifts sent her from various friends who had visited her the past year. She has cooked for as many as fifteen persons at one time. Our Christ mas was made very happy by

Feasting Important To World Observance Of New Year

Feasting is as important a part of a New Year celebration as of Thanksgiving. with a good meal on the first day of the year sym bolizing that there will be plenty throughout the days ahead.
 The New Years day banquet differs as one travels around the world. An important dish among the Spaniards is sopa, rice cooked with olive oil, tomatoes, vegeta- bles and meat particles. Africans partake of cous-couS, which is composed of wheat grains, lamb and vegetables. Picked greens, raw fish. roast bird and shrimp fritters are menu headliners in Japan, with pickled chrysanthe- mum petals considered a special delicacy. The SWedes temper their feasts with a special drink, called glOgg which is a claret wine sweet ened with sugar and favored with almonds, raisinS, dried orange peel, cinnamon, cloves and carda- mon. It is usually set afire before serving.
 Feasts in England and Western Europe are similar to our Ameri- can menus, chief difference being in the choice of side dishes. Tur- key, duck or goose make the pop ular roast in England and in France. Latin countries bedeck their holiday fowl with truffles, chestnuts and olives and one might find snails on the menu in France.

communities, with Teller as his home base. Other communities in his circuit and their distances from Teller are:
 Teller Mission, miles; Shish- maref, 75 miles; Lost River, 35 miles; and Nome, 75 miles. Exclu- sive of Nome, the parish totals 500 Eskimos.
 Of special interest is the church at Lost River which was moved by construction company from Mary's Igloo, a ghost town, dis tance of 88 miles over the tundra. Lost River is a village that has sprung up as the result of the acti- vatiOn of large tin mine
 There are no roads in the parish Prior to the coming of the airplane travel was made by dog sled in winter and by boat in summer. The use of the airplane on this large field has enabled mission aries to do more effective work and has helped to unify the parish. Prior to the advent of the plane, people saw little of each other.
 The Rev. Hegland, his wife and three children flew from South Dakota to Teller in September, 1851, guided only by the Alaska Highway.
 Storms are especially bad in the Lost River area. They prove to be the biggest obstacle to the work, as services often have to be can celled due to the bad weather.
 Hegland has his commercial fly ing license and has over 2,OOO fly ing hours to his credit.

Jesse Stubbs Off To Finish Monument To Will Rogers

FAIRBANKS, LR - Rugged old Jesse Stubbs is setting out again to finish the monument he erected to Will Rogers near Point Barrow last year.
 StubbS, you will recall, is the 74-year- boyhood friend of the famed humorist. He vowed last year he would hike all the way from Anchorage to Barrow to erect the monument to his old friend. He actually made it to Fairbanks where he finally agreed to fly the rest of the way
 Stubbs had just ended more than six months in a Fairbanks hospital as a result of frozen feet and other effects of cruel expo sure in an Arctic storm.
 Stubbs, as sentimental as he is sturdy, suffered his frostbite on a trip with a native after wild game for a destitute Eskimo fam fly. They were trapped in blind ing blizzard on the way home. His native companion became ill so Stubbs insisted on the man tying himself in the sled and letting the dogs take him home by instinct.
 Stubbs remained behind with only a tarpaulin cover for shelter and a kerosene lantern for heat. His food ran out before the Wea- ther allowed the native to return for him two weeks later.
 Stubbs was unable to walk when tic native returned. He was taken to hospital at Barrow, where attendants did not expect him to survive. Three weeks later he was transferred to a hospital here.
 The sturdy Stubbs heart pulled him through and he is ready to hit the trail again.

 The magazine furnishes Vari- ety of news from all Alaska.
 One interesting item this month is about Rev. N. Hegland of Teller. We reprint it here, in part:
 The Rev. Norval Hegland is a Nome pastor who made church history last fall when he attended the Pacific District Convention of Evangelical Lutheran Church, at Tacoma, Wash, and travelled the farthest of any member of the group.

what you've been saying on
what's the matter with us. Maybe,
it's time you should be looking
around for another job.")
But if the members are that
sicklY. the rabbi has a hard time
of it. too. Mr.. Annis was telling
his fellow aspirants for the rabbi
nate.
Having given up the idea of
making religion an integral part
of the lives of his congregation,
the rabbi finds it more and more
difficult to entice these people to
the temple" he said. Book re-
views, travelogs, enough peace of
mind sermons to drive the con-
gregant out of his mind, family
nights-all these to no avail.
"At best our rabbi becomes an
awful nice guy. tremendous
speaker. fine mind, a spokesman
to the Christians who dutifullY
explains that Judaism and Chris
tianitY. Judaism and Rotary are
almost identical"
So what? And where's the rab-
bi going from there? In what
ways can he fulfill himself as
rabbi. Mr.. Annis thought he knew
the way for a rabbi to go. in these
times. He said: Religion, through
it's spokesman, must seek out and
understand what is evil in its day;
and protest, protest in a loud
voice. The business Of religion is
to protest by word and action
against the injustice in our world,
regardless Of place or person.
TT is in this sphere. more than
any other. that religion has fall
tered. blinded its eyes, slipped
on its ears and become insensitive
s. Rabbis and ministers humble
about peace and justice in alb
stract terms. This lack Of real
meaningful protest is critical in
the Reform rabbinate. We may
shortly expect a book entitled:
How to Succeed in the Ministry
Without Half Trying Only grud-
ginglY does prophetic faith get
its due"
Mr.. Annis wasn't making any
friends among rabbis when he
said he was appalled, by "the
words which come tumbling from
the lips of our rabbis Brave
rabbits send ir.religious school
pupils home with a memorized
phrase on their lips Mama,
light the candles this Friday
night and make papa say Kid

and proudly thinks he is pre-

Yes. there used TO be time
when Reform Judaism had So

was saying Loyalty probes
and great anxiety about tenure

It seems better to be safe. to find
some naturalization"
Young Mr.. Annis was calling
all the rabbis and all other kinds
of ministers to speak up bravely

stood in great need of protest by
its leadership now is the time.
This is the business of religion.

who spent eight days in Odessa
where their ship the S. S. Nacha-
hon recently delivered the first

season, reported that Is Jews
over the age of so with relatives
in Israel have received Soviet exit

The seamen, who were permit
ted to travel about in Odessa as
they pleased, said that they had
gained the impression that the
Jews they met in the Black Sea
port city would have liked to
come to Israel. Although they
said nothing directly about this,
they often greeted the Israelis
with the traditional phrase: "Next
Year in Jerusalem"
When the vessel arrived in
port, Soviet officials spent four
hours searching the vessel, in

the sailors.
