About Mistletoe
There is a superstition that mis¬
tletoe hung over a door will bring
good luck to a house and ward off
witches.
It Italy is is thought to be a
charm to put out fires. Peasants in
France brew it into tea to cure
stomach ache.
Druids thought mistletoe sacred
because it came from heaven with
no roots in the ground.
Kissing under the mistletoe goes
back to a Scandanavian myth. The
goddess Frigga is said to have
hung mistletoe high overhead,
then offered kisses to all who
came beneath it.
Soviet Factory Gets
Horsey as Romancing
Mare Visits
MOSCOW (AP) — A horse ro¬
mance got the Izhora metallurgi¬
cal factory into real trouble. It
hadn’t been provided for in the
plan.
Mushka the mare was one of six
horses doing light hauling work at
the Izhora factory in the Lenin¬
grad region.
“Once she visited a neighboring
state farm and made acquaintance
of a local stallion,” the Soviet mag¬
azine Krokodil said in its latest
issue, “This acquaintanceship
proved fatal for the whole plant.”
Mushka gave birth to a gray
colt shortly before the annual re¬
port on the factory’s assets were
due. The report dutifully listed the
new equine asset. But higher au¬
ruled the colt had not been
for in the plan; therefore
should not exist.
Why did you increase your as¬
management was asked.
The factory set up a special file
correspondence caused by the
and there was enough of it
that finally the report was ac¬
But there was new trouble the
year.
By then the colt had grown into
horse.
“So in the next report,” Kroko¬
said, “it was necessary to say
factory had seven horses, not
as provided for in the plan.
Immediately questions arose.
“Where did the factory get the
horse from?”
A new version was invented. It
made to look as if a horse
gotten lost and wandered into
factory. That was the seventh
All seemed well for a while.
And then instructions came down
above to look for the owner
the horse and return it.
The situation was finally saved
a stroke of fate.
“Luckily one of the other horses
Krokodil said, “Then there
only six.”
“The next report was accepted
“The correspondence stopped.”

People Merit Right
Elect Governor
The Editors: I have always been
a Democrat and I firmly believe
the Democratic platform, but I
also believe in truth and honesty.
I believe the people of Georgia
have a perfect right to make their
choice for governor. I think our
party has gone too far by trying
to force their way Into office.
I am 78 years old . . . but I
think it is time for us to see
selves for what we are and
to love our neighbors as ourselves.
I think the two lawyers who
ted the suit to try to appoint
governor are taking the
right from them. I think the
of Georgia should have the
to elect their governor.

Figuring the Cos*
Takes Some Doing
The Editors: I believe an article
should be written on the front
page of the Journal stating the
exact cost of the November 8 elec¬
tion.
If the voters who supported the
write-in vote realized the cost of
another election, they would find
it easier to make the enoice be¬
tween the two main candidates; in
the event we have another elec¬
tion.
—MRS JOSEPH MOYER, Atlanta.
(This is a good idea, and as soon
as we can figure the total cost we
shall publish it. — The Editors.)

Don't Play With Sex,
Pastor Says

Today’s factory worker puts in
about 10 hours a week less — and
earns 12 times more — than his
counterpart did in 1909, according
to a new Labor Department study.
In those days, the average work
week was 51 hours. And the av¬
erage weekly paycheck was a meas¬
ly $9.74 for factory workers.
Now the average work week has
dwindled to 41 Yz hours (with over¬
time). And the average weekly
paycheck has billowed to $112.
BUFFALO BERRIES
Early travelers across the Ameri¬
can pararies found the Indians
using buffalo berries in much the
same fashion as we use cranberries,
fresh or dried. The berries were
harvested from bushes growing on
the prairies late in the fall after
the first frosts. George Catlin
painter of Indian life, compared
the berries to dried currants.
U.S. Postal Load:
42 Per Person
WASHINGTON — An average
person should receive 42 pieces of
holiday season mail.
That’s what the Post Office De¬
partment has predicted it will han¬
dle this year for every man, woman
and child in the United States.
The total of 8.5 billion pieces
would top last season’s record by
about 300,000.
FINE PRINTING
Draft Alternatives r
Two proposals for selective
service reform won unexpected
support at a just-ended University
of Chicago conference on the draft:
A volunteer military service and
a compulsory national service, the
latter offering a choice of civilian
welfare services for the military
undraftable.
The conferees’ ideas may even
tually go into the congressional
hopper when draft reform is
undertaken next year.
A Bit- Snappy Outside
In The Yukon
WHITEHORSE, Yukon Terri¬
tory, Dec. 9 (AP) — Polks used
to crunching over the snow in
mukluks and heavy fur parkas
remained closer to heaters as the
season’s first severe cold snap hit
Canada’s Yukon Territory and
eastern Alaska.
The temperature sank to 54 de¬

Mayo and Dawson, Y.T., and -48

Holly Lasts
Although it is not necessary to
keep it in water, holly will last
longer during the holiday season
if you provide it with nourishment,
says the society of American flor¬
ists. When arranging holly in a
container, fill it with a solution
consisting of one cup brown sugar
to one quart warm- water. As evap¬
oration occurs, replenish the con¬
tainer with this same solution.
The Christmas holidays have al¬
ways been a popular time for
weddings. The society of Ameri¬
florists suggests the bride
a white velvet muff trimmed
with deep red Happiness roses and
that her bridesmaids carry red
muffs trimmed with white carna¬
snowballs and streamers of
Red Carnations, backed with red
foilage, arranged in a bright red
vase, make a striking necoration
