CHRISTMAS EDITION
IB.C.AndIA.D.
Were Not Year Apart
According to our calendar,
one would naturally assume that
between the year 1 B. C. and
the year 1 A. D. there should
be a year called zero. As a
matter of fact, no such year
exists, as far as historians are
econcerned, and the year 1 A.
D. follows directly after the year
1B C
A person born in-8 B. C
would not be five years old at
2 A. D, but would be four
years old when one is calculat
ing data in that period. When
adding B. C. and A. D. years,
it is necessary to always sub
tract one to compensate for the
year zero omitted between 1 B.

The new color movie, “Power
ing America's Progress’ spon
sored by the Bituminous Coal
Institute, was shown over 22
television stations within five
weeks after its release,
State’s Rights Now Imporfant As
Ever, Gov. Talmadge Declares
, “The question of States’ Rights
i€ just as important today as it
;was when this country was found
led.”
Thus declared Gov. Herman‘
Talmadge in an address befcre
the recent 46th annual convention
cf the National Association of
Attorneys General held at the
Cloister Hotel on Sea Island.
This marked the first time the
association has ever met in|
Georgia.
Taking cognizance of the
responsibility of the attorney
general of a state to fight against
tne encroachment of the federal
sovernment in state’s affairs, the
Governor said: |
“Almost daily and in many
fields the state attorney general
must fight this movement to
destroy the sovereign powers of
cur states. It behooves us all to
work day and night and to co
operate with our representatives
in Congress to combat the drive of
over-zealous federal bureaucratic
officials to take over funetions
that are purely state functions
| which are reserved to the stater
| by the language of the Constitu
‘tion of the United States itself.”
The young chief executive al
luded to the great responsibility
of state attorneys’ general when
called upon to pass on the con
stitutionality or te interpet legis
lation. At this point he paid
tribute to Georgia’s Attorney
{Ceneral Eugene Cook, saying:
“‘Permit me to offer the highest
praise for our state’s able at
|lorney general, none of whose
[ major opinions have ever been
lreversed by the courts.”
' (Mr Cook subsequently was
|elected first vice-president of the
NAAG. The 48-year-old Georgian,
a member of the association’s
executive committee, thus moved
up to the No 2 post and auto
matically came in line for the
presidency of the national organ
ization in 1954.)
Calling on the attorneys gen
eral to “seek out and destroy
subversive influences and help
destroy them before they destroy
us, “Gov. Talmadge warned that
infiltration of Communists into
rewspapers, magazines, motion
Ipictures, radio, television, the
State Department and even into
?Q}‘e Atomic Energy program has
lhecomb a serious problem for
| America. The attorneys general
ias law-enforcement officials have
a duty to combat such infiltration,
he asserted.
God Bless Christmas
“There are many things from
which I might have derived
*good, by which I have not prof
‘ited, I dare say,” returned the
nephew. “Christmas among the
|rest. But I am sure I have al
’ways thought of Christmas time,
| when it comes around, as a good
‘time; a kind forgiving, chari
table, pleasant time; and, there
fore, uncle, though it had never
lput a scrap of gold or silver in
imy pocket, 1 say, God bless it!”
| —Charles Dickens, “A Christ
| mas Carol.” ‘

‘Why Christmas Candles?
l On Christmas Eve the Christ
| Child wanders all over the
| earth seeking deserving people
| —people who are kind and
thoughtful of others, and people
who have Joving hearts. Lighted
| candles are placed in the win
ldows by such people so that
He may not stumble and fall. In
the course of His search He |
visits every castle and hut, no‘
matter how rocky and rough |
I His path may be. l

Father Joseph Mohr sat reading
lhis Bible, there was a knock at|
’his door. It was a peasant wom
'an who wanted the priest to]
visit a poor charcoal-maker's |
wife to whom a child had been'
born. The parents had sent her‘
to ask the priest to come and |
bless the infant. [
Father Mohr was strangely |
moved by the visit to the moth- |
er. And that evening as he re- |
turned to his home he saw that |
the dark slopes of the Alps a-]
round the village were alight|
‘with torches of the mountaineers
on their way to church. To him |
is was a Christmas miracle. s
Later, as he tried to put down |
on paper his,feeling and ex-|'
perience, the words kept turn- |
ing into verse. When dawn came |-
he found he had written a poem |
—a beautiful and moving poem.
On Christmas Day his friend, |
Franz Xaver Gruber, music
