The Candles OF Christmas

Now is the season of the Christmas candle. All
over the nation there trees decked to celebrate
the Day of Days. Great towering pines in city
squares; growing trees, bedecked with gay lights,
on suburban lawns; modernistic trees sprayed with
silver, gold or blue. In the deep forest on the
mountainside the dark frs have at their feet
and star for their light. But the kind of Christ
mas tree like the best is the old-fashiOned one
whose principal trimming is snowy white candles.
What do these candles mean? And how can we
light them in our hearts they may burn there
during the year to come?
The clear steady flame is the candle of truth
the light that dspes the shadows and false images,
the selfish ambitions, hatreds and prejudices.
The slow burning light is the candle of patience
the light given us by which to wait and work
for the fulfilling of the law.
The gentle CLEAN is the candle of mercy-not
condescending charity, but helpful spirit toward
all our brothers. There can be no light for any,
if there is not light for ALL
The warm glowing fire is the candle of friend
lness-the spirit of love for our neighbor. eff
man love not his neighbor whom he hath seen, how
he love God whom he hath not seen?'
The mellow light is the candle of understand
ng-the willingness to wait and learn the facts
before generalizing with rash decisions
The high reaching flame is the candle of graft
tude-of thankfuness for the blessings of the past,
for the opportunities to of the present, and
for the courage to face the future-"assured alone
that, life or death, His mercy underlies'
The brilliant light is the candle of faith-fath
not in man alone, but in God and in the God given
power of men to do right that the end may be
right.
These the candles of the Christmas spirit,
to be nursed with care and to be kept ever before
us, for only as we keep the light ahead of us will
the shadows fall behind and way be made clear.

Washington - The United
States is a country where most
people are cowboys and the rest
are millionaires, no one has to
work, and all Indians wear
feathers and want to fight.
Or so it seems to most At
ricans, says Mrs. Victoria Nut
swairo, an African school-teach-
or from Southern Rhodesia.
And, she adds, ~ think
Americans have just as wrong
an impression of Africa"
Mrs. Mutswairo is one of Is
women educators from nine At
rican nations who are winding
up a three-month tour of this
country.
"My biggest surprise in this
country was that Americans
work hard, they actually sweat, "
she told a news conference We'd
nesday.
And where do Africans get
their ideas about the United
States Apparently from mo-
ton pictures and, where it is
available, television.
"The children at home ad-
mire Americans and American
ways" Mrs. Mutswairo said.
"They try to copy them, and

afterwards they had mil
lion questions to ask me. They
wanted to know what Africa
was really like"
Mrs. Mutswairo did not come
right out and say it, but one
gathered she blamed television
and movies for presenting a.
false picture of Africa.
She was one of eight visit
ing educators taking part in a
panel discussion at the head
quarters of the National Edu-l
cation Association.
AS the women talked, one
thing stod out: The things that
are taken for granted in United
States schools are real surprises
to Africans.
They told of their interest at
such things as parent-teacher
conferences, summer school
courses for teachers, practice

where as well. The new Smithsonian Museum Of

Constitution avenue at Fourteenth street NV, is an
example. Clearly the building is not columned.
Federal building Yet the effect usually of the in
and out slabs of its facades is essentially that of the
in and out light and dark pattern created by columns.
Rhythmic and regular.
The idea of light and dark suggests the way in
which the new Washington architecture differs most
strkingy from the old The difference could even be
said to be that between day and night. The older
style of Government architecture was most suitable
for floodlght illumination which, in essence, merely
continued the effects of the The new style re-
those effects is dramatically evident in the
new Federal office building at Sixth street and Inde
pendence S.W. by day and seen by night.
All the values reversed, if in a Photographic
negative The surfaces that take and reflect the
light become dark; the windows which, in day. are
sunk in shadowed alcoves, are by night ablaze with
interior light
In sum, the weight of the new architectural look
In the new Washington is successful modification
of the old. There is break with the past rather,
the past is exercising control present and future.
This sometimes for good, sometimes for bad, seems
close to the heart Of constitutional democracy.

The most surprising single characteristic OF the
"new Washington" that is going up before eyes,
is the total absence of the old-time governmental
look" That look may be in Washington buildings
as old as the Old Patent Office Building and new

Art. Often described as Classical" it is vaguely
