Omens Dim Yule Spirit “Merry” Christmas? Not always, according to some ancient be¬ liefs once associated with the day. Take, for instance, the old be¬ lief that cattle and other stable animals were given power of speech on Christmas Eve. Any person who heard the ani¬ mals speak would die within a year, so superstition said. Somber omens of death were read into still other Yuletide legends. When the Yule Log burn¬ ed bystanders were told to watch the shadows on the walls. If the shadow of any persons appeared to be headless, this supposedly meant death for those persons, again within a year. Salt was also said to have the power of forecasting life or death, when used in connection with Christmas. The test could be made by leaving a small mound of salt on the table on Christmas Eve. If the salt melted during the night that, too, meant death within 12 months. If the salt remained unmelted, the forecast was for a long and healthy life. PAY YOUR SUBSCRIPTION NOW Established 1891 t*«t Xsai « Prophet Jeane Dixon Forecast Blackout Mrs. Jeane Dixon, the Washing¬ ton visionary, whose prophecies are often startlingly accurate, in 1963 predicted the United States would someday be blacked out just as it was in the Northeast last week. In August of 1963 Mrs. Dixon agreed to scientists’ requests that she meditate on rockets. Here is what she said later: “I saw a silver ball like the sput nick rising out of Russia and go¬ ing into a powerful missile which traveled around the globe to the left. Suddenly, it switched course and traveled in the opposite di¬ rection. Beneath it America was all aglow, but as the missile turn¬ ed, the lights of our country went out, leaving us in utter darkness. “I interpreted this to mean that Russia has a secret type of missile for which we have no anti-missile missile. It is so powerful that it can completely immobilize our communications systems. It can also play havoc with the naviga¬ tion of our planes.” Mrs. Dixon was asked whether or not the Russians already had such a missile. She answered she was confident the Russians did. — Baltimore American. Legislature May Echo Dog-Killing (UPI) — A 'coon dog valued at $1,200 which a state game ranger shot to death two years ago may become a political issue in the 1966 General Assembly. Rep.-elect Fulton Lovell of Ra burn County filed for damages with the State Claims Commission as a routine preliminary to seek¬ ing settlement from the legisla¬ ture. Lovell was acting for a consti¬ tuent, Willard York of White Coun¬ ty. The state cannot be sued with¬ out its consent. The dog was destroyed on Nov. 4, 1963, by a game ranger who was under orders to kill dogs be¬ lieved to be chasing deer. This occurred shortly after Rosser Ma¬ lone succeeded Lovell as director of the Game and Fish Department. Ranger Joe Knight was arrested for killing the dog and, found guilty, fined $100. Malone paid the fine. Malone was criticized by State Auditor Ernest Davis for paying $150 to defense lawyers. Malone should have used the state law department, Davis said. York contended his dog was Chasing a ’coon, not deer, when the shooting occurred in the Chattahoochee National Forest. — Atlanta Constitution. PINEY WOODS PETE Soys: DEAR MISTER EDITOR: It seems to me I’ve heard of more folks having stomach trouble in recent months than ever before. According to one magazine article, a lots of this trouble comes from the use of DDT and other high powered insecticides. It was said that DDT sprayed on fruits and vegetables can’t be washed off, and that folks not only git it in their systems eating such foods, but also eating the meat of animals that eat feed that was sprayed when it was growing, and that it even gets into milk. It was stated that the whole population gets doses of these poisons day after day, and they’re bad on the liver as well as the stomach. Man had better cut out poison¬ ing his food this way. Insects are fast getting immune to these poi¬ sons, anyhow, and they’ll soon be hunting ’em up and eating ’em as a tonic. Yours truly, PINEY WOODS PETE. — Atlanta Journal. He Bearly Made It SONORA, Calif. (UPI) — A mis¬ sing hunter found in good con¬ dition told sheriff’s deputies a bear chased him up a tree and forced him to spend the night there. PAY YOUR SUBSCRIPTION NOW What's Going On In Your White County Schools By Telford Hulsey, Superintendent SOME THINGS TO BE THANKFUL FOR IN YOUR SCHOOL SYSTEM 1.

You have a Board of Educa¬ tion that is united in its effort to achieve a better education pro gram for the children. 6. You have a property re-valu¬ ation that gave the Department of Education a sufficient amount of money to operate a good school program. 7. We are thankful that you have provided a good home for the children and the churches have provided moral and spiritual train¬ ing for us all. May we all work together so that we will have more to be thankful for next Thanks¬ giving. What's Ahead . . . A critical government eye is looking now under car hoods and in gas tanks. And there is talk in Washington that present-day engines and fuels may have to go. The President’s science advisory committee is worried about the leads and other engine additives that have pushed air pollution to critical levels in the United States. A suggestion is floating around to clamp on tighter government controls — create a sort of Food and Drug Administration-type agen¬ cy to oversee fuel and engine quality. And that isn’t all. White House science advisers think the time eventually may come when it will ue necessary to get rid of present 1 ngines and fuels altogether. their concern: that the carbon dioxide more and more engines four into the air could warm the .umosphere and change earth’s . eather. They are asking automakers to seriously mull the idea of scrap¬ ping present engines and power¬ ing cars with nontoxic fuel cells instead. Sex, Love Topics of Talk Sex, love and morality were the subjects discussed by Goucher College chaplain Frederick Wood Sunday in the Habler Chapel. Wood created a nationwide stir last year for a similar sermon, in which he maintained that sex is good — with responsibility. Wood sought t-o dispel the view that whatever he said was in any way related to an official policy. “Nothing said in the pulpit rep¬ resents any official policy of Goucher”, he said. “Sex,” according to Wood, “is a fact of life. You cannot be human without it.” Those who believe that sex is not good are “dehumanizing hu¬ man sexuality,” the view that sex is good is not prevalent, unfortu¬ nately, he said. “Sex is part of the creative order of things” and “with sex comes the capacity for love and self-fulfillment,” he de¬ clared. Wood opposed the view that “love is a warm puppy” and that love is passion. Love instead is self-giving or being eminently concerned with the wishes of the other. This view of love is “the highest moral prin¬ ciple of Christian teaching,” the chaplain said. Morality becomes then, the ap¬ plication of love to sex; it is the giving of one’s self to something outside one’s self, he continued. Wood told the capacity audience of 200 girls and a scattering of boys that he eould not judge the morality of others, “for that would be very unloving of me.” PAY YOUR SUBSCRIPTION NOW
