WE CAN’T THINK OF
A NEW CHRISTMAS
GREETING, but fortun
ately, the old words still say
it best. Merry Christmas to
you and those you love! We
hope the season and the day
will be filled with many good
things for you. The com-
panionship of family and friends ... the satisfaction of
giving and the pleasure of receiving ... the love and joy
that bring alive the real meaning of Christmas Day.

SPELLING LESSON—2Oth CENTURY STYLE: The
“maser” (a word you won’t find in the dictionary) is an
important part of the ground station which receives and
amplifies signals from the Telstar satellite. The word
“maser” is made up of the first letters of several other
words: M (microwave), A (amplification), S (Stimu
lated), E (emission), R (radiation). A tiny ruby crystal
is at the heart of the maser which amplifies signals trans
mitted from Telstar to earth. The maser is another Bell
System contribution to the exciting world of satellite
communications, and a brand new word in the vocabulary
of 20th century man.
