Judging Guide For Jaycee
Christmas Lighting Contest Released

What you do with what you have. :"
will receive major consideration from
judges of the annual residential
Christmas lighting contest being
sponsored by the Bluffton. Jaycees.
Instructions for contestants were
contained in a pamphlet being dis
tributed to persons who file their en-
tries for the contest.
The focal point of the display should
be strongly emphasized by lighting,
color contrast, style, size or whatever
original means the homeowner can
devise.
Secondary points of interest should
not be so brilliant that they compete
with the main theme. One suggestion
is for the use of slightly subdued IL
Elimination for these features.
An ideal system of general illunni-
nation would unity all the elements
in the display. Some persons have
achieved this by using diffused light
ing while others may use strings or
paths of light.
The judges will consider whether
the display is suited to the area dec
GRATED. The pamphlet issued to con-
testants points out that heavy use of
expensive decorations is not neces-
sary to successful lighting display.
Judging for the contest will be held
the evening of December %, accord

LEI us PRAY

'Let us pray" may be a very
formal and unilnpres.sive state
y ent. We have heard it when
it meant nothing at all beyond
tie fact that a considerable COM
panv of people changed their
posture and kneeled or bowed
their heads and bodies. We. have
heard it at other times when it
brought not only bodies but
souls into reverential attitude
toward Him to whom prayer is
offered. We question whether
any public act reveals the soul
as does the call to prayer and
the leading of a company in
prayer. We do not believe there
are rules to be laid down, but
we know the difference between
sne prayer of one near to God
and one afar off. The disciples
of Jesus noted this when He
prayed and felt their own in
capacity in asking, Lord, teach
us to pray" They did not ask
to be taught to "say prayers,
but to pray in spirit and in
truth. We fear that some Chris
tianS have ceased to know how
to nray. This is true both in
public and in private. A true
man Of prayer is a rarity in
pulpit and in pew. Prayer is inn
possible to him who has other
ambitions than to know the will
Of God and do it. Prayer IS i'm
possible to him who forgetS the
power of Christ and is absorbed
in human plans, schemes and
devices. Prayer is impossible to
him who casts aside the revealed
Word of God. Oh yes, there may
be the phrases, attitude and
semblance of prayer, but not
prayer. We think the need of
prayer is pressing today. Let us
in humanity and penitence and
conservation turn to God.

Except on days that seem too

Just to keep them un to par,
We take the kids on Sundays
For a Joy ride in the car.
And sometimes, too, in spring
and fall
I take a Sunday off,
And HE me to the country club
To have a game Of golf.
But all the other Sundays
You will find us in our pew,
For we always go to church
