Strange Things
By Heinie Snider

The American people are for advertising. Turn on the radio or T. ", and you soon find out that at least one-third of your dime is lost on commercials. The banker will tell you that you can borrow money to buy Christmas presents, and almost Tn the same breath advise you to start saving your dough for Christmas, 1863. How you can borrow, spend, and at the same time save looks like a paradox ao me.
 The weather man predicts clouds and snow, and when we look at the thermometer it's 30 below with wind of gale pro- portions. During his report, he sells buns and pastry.
 Now, lets turn on the T. V. and listen to the stale jokes of Red Skelton from 20 years ago. We turn to another station just m time to hear a couple of wo- men informing each other about the best soap powder. There is enough soap powder m the market to cleanse the world of sin.
 We get a few bars of music. Followed by the lady who says, -~There is something about al Velvet Man"
 No doubt there are millions of dollars spent on the sale of billions of pills. Some you can sake, and they won't make you 1 sick at the stomach. Isn't that nee? We have not seen the one pn headache for some time. You know $. the one whereI YOU can look inside a mans head with the thunderbolts runniong through his brain

SANTA'S HELPERS MAY GARRY SOCIAL SECURITY CARDS IN PARKA POCKETS

If there are any Eskimos lending Santa Claus a hand during the pre-Christmas rush. ehey may be carrying social se- curity cards in the pocket of their parkas.
 One of the first social secur- 1ty district offices to be set up was in Juneau, Alaska, in Oc- Eober 1886. And it's first big -iob was to assign social secur- fly numbers to Alaska's can nery workers, including hun dreds of Eskimos.
 The job was complicated by she fact that many of the Eski mos had no surnames, their mothers had no maiden names. and their fathers names had nothing in common with the names of their children. More over, they had been getting along quite well up to this time without last names.
 Many Eskimos received and StlH use names assigned to them by the cannery bookkeepers who helped them complete ap- plications for social security. Sometimes the names the Eski- mos took were simply those of the villages where they lived. Some names were borrowed from persons they admired.
 NQre often, they were des- criptive names such as Small sled" "Oldfriend," and even "'Bighead", but one old timer who together with his wife, is now receiving monthly old-age Insurance benefits, chose the name, A. Lincoln.
 By dogsled, river boat, and plane, social security repre- sentatives covered 536,00 square miles of Alaska in set ting up and explaining their program to Americans who had never heard of a calendar be

and the hammer going plunck plunck plunck. There is also the one of the mans stomach which looks for all the world like a large cavern with dripping stalactites drip, drip, drip all acidity.
 One night we tried all even- ing to get our favorite program. That was the night there was an auction sale going on. Every half hour, we turned on the T.V. At bed time we tried once more. just in time to see the night crew relieving the day crew while the bidding went on.
 Last week during the storm, we turned on the T.V. No sound, no picture. Well, I said, the antenna must have blown down. When the wind died down three days later, I notic- ed that the antenna was still standing. I got on the roof, and checked inside the house, too everything O. K. That is, until I discovered that the Frau, who uses the carpet sweeper, forgot to plug the T.V. cord in again.
 However, we spend much of our time in reading, and as my partner says, 'aThe Frontiers man" has grown in size and news, and we find many adver- .isements of the local stores. We must again renew our sub ,cription for a year, and as a Christmas present send The to our friends in the states, you know, folks. Have you?

THOUGHTS
 OF A LAYMAn
Massacre ali Bethlehem

When Herod heard of the birth of a new king, Jesus, he tried to prevail on the wise men to tell him where the Babe might be found. He said he wanted to worship Him. It was the devil that was be- hind the scenes, and it was he that put it in the mind of Herod to kill all the boy babies in Bethlehem. hoping thereby to destroy Jesus. However, Joseph had been alerted by an angel to flee to Egypt with Mary and the Christ Child. This was the devils first attempt to des- troy Almight God. He would try again at Golgotha.

 workers, even if they're not helping Santa Claus, should be sure to take their social secur- ity cards with them when they report to work the first day.

Every worker should show his card to his employer when he takes Q new job and make sure that the number is copied correct ly," Christensen advised.
