Good Will to Men * * *
Some two thousand years ago, light came into the world
for the first time. Man had before dwelt in darkness without
hope of eternal love and without hope of eternal salvation.
The Star of Mercy heralded the arrival of Jesus, the Christ,
who was destined to head the mighty Christian religion.
Through the centuries, Christianity, as most great and
lasting institutions, has changed in form and outward appear¬
ance, but the same underlying hope and spirit brought by the
Christ Child, who was found in the manger, prevails.
Today, the hearts of many are so full of bitterness, envy
and ungodly thoughts that they cannot find room for the
more serene and peaceful ideals. The Christmas season can¬
not be fully and adequately celebrated without a decisive effort
on the part of each of us to try to bring pea^eTTiappmesi
in some degree, to some individual.
The life of today is so complicated that it is difficult
for the people of today to understate! and appreciate the
more simple and lasting things. However, for survival, it is
absolutely necessary for us#to havoA rebirth of the gogflness
and generosity of life. The /soj/istication of the lawera

Benches Will Go
Up in 'Nicotine
Gulch' by Jan. 2
Benches for the nicotine gulch
area will be installed January 2,
Dick Van Anda, president of the
junior class which is engineering
the improvements, announced
today.
The benches have concrete ends
and wooden cross pieces, Van
Anda said, and will cost the jun¬
ior class over 180 dollars. Other
improvements for the area have
been planned for Easter vacation.
They consist of the removal of
the small wall near the walk, and
the spreading of a macadam
foundation under the 12 benches.
Junior Section
The juniors plan to utilize the
“gulch” in the same way that
the seniors have with the area in
front of the student union, Van
Anda asserted. The newly install¬
ed benches will not be reserved
solely for members of the junior
class, Van Anda said.
