But on the morrow there wpre oth

The Enzesfeld town burgomaster

The Austrian news agency an

Rothschild’s guest “until after Christ

population would be tactful and re

CHRISTMAS
IN THE HOME
HRISTMAS festivities are
likely to be much more fun
when the whole family helps,
says the New York state college of
home economics.
The older children are always
eager to trim the Christmas tree,
collect Christmas greens, and make
wreaths. Often they have |ood
ideas on how to arrange these Holi
day decorations. Because these
tasks are unusual they have a spe
cial appeal, but with t^ right en
couragement from fathjsr or moth
er even the-ipore routinp work may
seem k part of the general family
sharing at Christmas. ^
Big brother and sistef can be a
help if they show their small broth
er or sister how to help in odd car
pentering jobs that come with
Christmas. If mother is busy, old
er brothers or sisters can help the
youngsters to dress or get.ready
. for bed.
What can the small/members of
the family do? Little Johnny or tiny
Mary can cut out gingerbread. men
and othdr fancy shaped cookies,
which mother will lift onto the bak
ing sheet. Father will also be
pleased to know how well his small
ion or dau^ter can flpd his Tools;
cut the sUring used to wind the
Christmas wreath wbpn both of fa
ther^ hands are busy, or to
help with other preparations.
One thing father and mother
shoihd remember is. to. watch for
signs of fatigue or nervous strain
in the younger children. They
should not ask the children to do
too many or too difficult tasks.

MEANING OF **NOEL'
«<
N OEL” is the French name
of the Christmas feast and
of the old carols formerly sung in
the French country churches at
this season. Its derivation it
from the Latin “natalis,” mean
ing “bom,” and the word waa
originally shouted or sung to ex
press joy over the birth of Christ.
With the spelling “Nowel” it it
found in Chaucer and other early
writers. ‘ •

Tho.se appointed by Sheriff Wear
are: R. A. Babb, bookkeeper, Hicks
F. Owings, Mace Langston, George
L. Ridgeway, R. S. Weir, jailer, and

None of the newly appointed offL.
cer.s , are members of the present

ties attached to’the sheriff’s office,
