Choosing the
YuIe Log

Because they believed that
the Christ Child had been wash
ed and dressed at Bethlehem
beside an ash wood fire, early
English people always had Yule
logs of ash wood. The log was
kept burning during the IL days
of Christmas.
Oak, pine, olive were Yule
log sources in other European
countries. In Scotland, the choice
was birch.
To St. Nicholas, a bishop of
the early Christian church, goes
credit for the custom of holi-
day giving to children.
Housewives in Northern Eur
ope, who had their chimneys
cleaned for better heating dur
ing the Yule season, told chill
dren the work was done to
clear the way for St. Nicholas
to come down the chimney with
gifts for them.

When the customs of one
country are compared with an
other, it's sometimes hard to
believe that the same holiday
is being commemorated!
How to Say 1t
Along with the different ways
of observing Christmas, there
are, of course, different ways
of extending greetings, accord
ing to the language of the coun-
try. To give just a few exam
Piles, in Sweden it's God Jul, !"
in French "Joyeux Noel" and in
German "Froliche Weihnach-
ten" In Russian, it's IS Rozh-
destvon Khristovym.
Whatever the language, the
words mean, Merry Christ
mas"-and that's the key to the
variety of Christmas customs.
Though the peoples of many
lands have unique Yule tradi-
tons, each is a way of express
ing the spirit of Christmas-a

Soyiets Retreat
And Santa Wins

After unsuccessful efforts to
keep Christmas from being cele-
brated as a Christian holiday,
the Communist regimes of Rus
sia and the countries of Eastern
Europe have recently shown a
more tolerant attitude toward
traditional observances. Father
Christmas, the Russian Santa,
is back again, having refused
to become Father Winter, the
name Communists tried to give
him.
Another gifts bringer in Russia
is a legendary old woman call
ed Babuska (grandmother). Leg
end says she mis-directed the
Magi when they asked the way
to Bethlehem. She repented, and
ito atone she went about the
world on Christmas Eve, look
ing for the Christ Child and
distributing gifts to children.
Smyrna times., 1961-12-21

spirit that is the same every
where, in every place and time.
AT Christmas, the thoughts
of people around the world turn
to the joys of home, of being
with family and friends, the
merriment of feasting and par
ties, the pleasures of giving and
receiving gifts, the satisfactions
of helping others. The affirma-
ton of faith, the renewed prom
ise of life eternal and the hope
for peace on earth, good will
toward all men" bring spiritual
rewards in a season of worship
and prayer.
Share In Tradition
All these things find express
sion in the Christmas customs
of many lands. And the Gus
toms travel from country to
country, so that, on a day when
sharing with others is a most
important part of the celebra-
ton, nations share in the men,
ories and traditions of other ma
tions.
Smyrna times., 1961-12-21
In Any Language,
Anywhere, It's
Merry Christmas

From Tokyo to West Berlin,
from Buenos Aires to Copen-
hagen-and even in the cities
of Russia and the satellite coun-
tries-the glow of the Christ
mas spirit spreads around the
world, for Christmas is truly a
universal holiday.
The legends and traditions
gathered about it are many, and
customs can, and do, vary from
country to country. All nations,
through their folklore, have
made their special contributions
to the traditional ways of cele-
brating the birthday of Christ.

Sun Magazine Section
Pictures Ghost Town

The Sunday magazine section of
the Baltimore Sun of November
IS, carried the story of Vindex,
ghost town." with pictures by A.
Aubrey Bodine The story was
written a number Of weeks ago by
Felix G. Robinsin, of Oakland.
The pictures showed how the
forest was beginning to take back
the streets and other areas around
the abandoned homes. There are
SO occupied homes in the town and
% that are vacant and in the pro-
cess of collapsing. A two room
schoolhouse is now used by a
church. The postoffice still re-
mains as does the office of the
mining company, an empty store
and a Methodist church.
About 100 people live in the 38
occupied homes. The heads of
seventeen families are employed,
the story states and the other
families are supported by pensions
or welfare funds.

The community became coal
town in January, 1897 and remained
one for 43 years and three months
On March 81. 1850, it went out of
business. 1t reached its peak dur
ing World War II with a popula-
ton exceeding 500 At that time
there were 100 occupied houses.
In one year $50 miners dug 100000
tons of coal and some of the men
earned SIS day
Vindex was considered a unique
one for mining town. Residents
were Anglo-SaXon. German stock
of the surrounding area.
Harold Adams became superin-
tendent of the mines in 1910 and is
property custodian for the Johns
town Coal and Coke company. Mrs.
Adams is the pOstmistress.

~ rVioia" you, you Will feel
not only that you can, but that
you ought to grow. If you are not
growing you are neglecting some
thing God wants you to do.
"Siir 10 Flame the Gift :"
The word translated in the 1911
translation "Stir up" the gift, has
nothing to do with anything
stirred with spoon. The Greek
word means to stir to a flame, to
re-kindle, as more recent trans
lation correctly express it. The
gift of God paul means in gen.
eral the gift of being a Christian,
and specially the gift of being
Christian minister) in Timothy
is like spark, glowing but with
out flame Paul wants to see
that gift burning brightly, send
ing light farther than it was doing.
The spirit God sends to those
who ask Him is indeed a gift. It
is nothing we can create or imi-
tate. But the Christian is expected
to do more than merely receive
it. 1t is possible so to neglect the
gift Of God that in time we might
almost as well never have had it.
There is a kind of law of COOP
GRAFTON between men and God;
we neglect it at our peril. God
sends the spark, we have to stir
it to a flame. No one else, not
even God, will do that for us.
There is nothing automatic, moth
ing instantaneous, about Christian
life and development We have to
stir the flame, to tend the fire. It
takes more than wishingl

Keep Growing
Lesson for November 26, 1861

THE word grow" is used three
times in the New Testament
as a command. Each time it is
so used, it is written to grown"
people. You do not grow taller
and stronger all your life. You
do not keep growing more in
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1961-11-23

telligent with adj
vancing years.
But you can grow
in knowledge, you
can grow in wis
dom, and you can
grow as a person,
as long as you
live. And if you
take the Bible as
Gods message to
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1961-11-23

But what is this fire, this spirit,
this gift of God? Some claim to
have it who have never known it.
Some pray for it, but would not
recognize the answer to their
prayer. Let us pass by an argu-
ment which commentators can
always have over Paul's meaning
here. When he speaks of the spirit
God gave us, does he mean the
Holy Spirit or does he mean the
spirit as the Psalmist did who
cried: Renew a right spirit within
me? Is it, in short, the Spirit of
God or the spirit of man which
is on Paul's mind at this point?
Either way, Paul may be speak
ing of the Holy Spirit or of the
"new heart" but the first pro-
duces the second, you cannot have
the second without the first.
The marks of the genuine Spirit
which Paul gives at this point are
three. We don't know why he said
so strongly that this spirit is NOT
one of fear; perhaps Timothy
himself was still a timid man. At
any rate, the Spirit-gift of God
is one of power, and love, and
self-control. Are any of these
lacking? Then it is not Gods
spirit-gift. To be sure, all men
know something of power, love
and Self-control; but at the di-
vine level they go beyond any
thing human beings can do by
their own strength.
Model 10 Grow BY
There is another important fact
about Gods spirit-gift 1t is this:
1t will not save us from the neces-
sity of thinking and working.
Again and again the New Tesla
ment makes it clear that what
God intends for each of us is to
grow into the likeness of the Mas
ter. But again, this is far from
automatic. A Christian cannot re-
lax and say to himself, God will
make me what He wants me to
be. | will wait and see how | turn
out, and then I'll know" By no
means. Paul gives Timothy some
thing to do. "Rekindle the gift .
do not be ashamed of testifying
to our Lord =. God has called us
to a dedicated life take your
share of suffering Follow the
pattern . Guard the truth"
The Christian life calls for
study; this is world filled with
difficult problems, and we cannot
solve them just by being sweet.
The best of Christians need some
pattern, some model, to go by,
he needs a human teacher he can
look up to and trust. The Christian
life is not easy. Twice on the
same page Paul has to tell Tim
othy to take his share of suffer
ing. The way of life is sure, but
it is steep and unpaved-and
there are no detours!

"The day passed so quickly
there just wasn't time!"
We've said that about many
days. Never say it about
Thanksgiving.
For it isn't true ...
All days pass at the same
steady pace. We have the same
daily portion of time - to
spend as we think best.
Take time to be thankful.
And be thankful for time!
Our souls do not realize
their destiny in one hurting
leap.
An hour of Thanksgiving.
An hour of worship. An hour
of Bible study. An hour of
service for our Church. Thus
we grow SLOWLY. WITH

ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest factor on
earth for the building of character and
good citizenship. 1t is a storehouse of
spiritual values. Without strong
Church, neither democracy nor civili-
zation can survive. There are four
sound reasons why every person should
attend services regularly and support
the Church. They are: Cd For his
own sake. (2) For his children's sake.
(3) For the sake of his community
and nation. (4) For the sake of the
Church itself. which needs his moral
and material support. Plan to go to
church regularly and read your Bible
daily.
