Merry Christmas •- - : The Decatur Daily Democrat officers, staff, and newsboys wish .each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas season. —- The birth of Jesus Christ, which we commemorate on Christmas, recalls to mankind that, jiist as Christ is unique, so each of us may be unique. Christ did not conform, yet he brought a message of peace and goodwill. Nor do those, who profess to follow Christ conform. ■ Many differ quite vehemently in how best to follow Christ. The perfect love of God, shining on imperfect man, is mirrored imperfectly, » _and as each of us bends the ray of God, each un.derstands a little differently. fThis does not mean that one is right, and all others wrong —and the great lesson of Christ is that brotherly love which allows each of us to develop the insight of God as best fits his personality, reflecting the glory of God through the unique, different individual. When we attempt to force others to believe as we do, we only do cruelty and injustice to the teaching of Christ; the Light of the World brought an idea which has been a great force, but the message of peace and cooperation is the outstanding gift. And so this Christmas, let each of us pledge that in the year ahead, we will renew our faith in the teachings of Christ, and practice them as best we understand them. Let us pledge to make our religion • not just a Sunday show of faith, but a living memorial to the Living God. Let us treat each other justly, remembering that love of God, and love of fellow man, are corollary to each other; you cannot do one without the other, and those who attempt to do so are only fooling, themselves.

Fewer Mailmen Are Attacked By Dogs MEMPHIS, Tenn. (UPI) — A post office safety officer here reported today that less mailmen were a bitten by dogs in 1963, but the bites were more severe. He blamed the increased ferociousness on “canine neurosis.” Most suburban homes do not have fences, explained M. E. Ackerman of the Memphis Post ■ Office, and families without fences usually chain their dogs. said, is “very bad for a “The dog goes out in the morning. He’s tied up. He can only move a few feet. Nowhere to use his energy. “When the postman arrives, the dog is mighty bad tempered, aching to sink his teeth into someone.” There’s little a carrier can do to defend himself, Ackerman said, since "the dogs that attack are the ones you don’t usually see.” » Postmen may beat the problem yet with the help of the U.S. Post Office Department in Washington. Ackerman said an experimental “spray gun” which immobilizes dogs with a harmless gas is being developed there. Massive Snowstorm Hits New England By United Press International A massive snowstorm moved into/ New England today, clogging roads and putting a crimp ,ir. last-minute Christmas shopyping.

Heavy snow warnings were posted from northeastern Pennsylvania into southern New England. Gale warnings flew from Eastport, Maine, to Block Island. R.1., and small craft warnings were displayed elsewhere along the coast southward to Florida. The storm dumped up to 16 inches of snow in parts of Virginia Monday. It left 6 to 8 inches of snow across southeastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey before changing to freezing raita. Driving was still hazardous today through most of the show and ice belt spawned through the Southland by the storm. Roads were clogged from Arkansas to'New York state? Memphis.

Michigan Company Disqualified In Bid INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — A Michigan construction firm whfbh ' submitted low bids for two construction contracts involving Interstate 74 was disqualified Monday by the Indiana State Highway Commission. The firm of L. A. Davidson, Lansing, Mich., was disqualified because its $2,508,266 bid exceeded the total for which it was qualified to contract in this state. 'The contra ct then was awarded to Dyer Construction Co. and Beemsterboer Slag and Ballast Corp., both of Dyer, with the next lowest bid, only $32 higher than the Davidson bid. The work involved 5.3 miles of roadway and two bridges on 1-74 in Fountain and Montgomery Counties, . beginning one mile east of Indiana 341 and running to 2.2 miles egst of Indiana 25. Then, because the Dyer and Beemsterboer firms got this contract, a conditional bid made by them on an adjoining section of 1-74 went to Berns Construction Co., Indianapolis, on the third lowest bid of $1,415,728. This was for a section running from a mile west of Indiana 341 to 2.3 miles east of U.S. 41. The difference was about $46,000. The commission also voted to extend its contract with Roy Jorgensen and Associates, Washington, D.C., temporarily until a new contract can be completed. The old contract, which resulted in a major personnel revision in the highway department, was for a maximum of $160,000. The maximum which could be paid under the proposed new contract is $150,000. The firm worked out a new career employment plan, 1 which beginning Jan. 1 will cover 2,300 highway workers holding jobs formerly either under political patronage or a merit plan. Under the new contract, a study and possible reorganization of the maintenance and land acquisition divisions of the highway department is contemplated. Also involved would be establishment of training schools for. about 600 highway construction inspectors. The extension of the old contract, which began in 1962, is for 90 days. • ~ The commission also approved the purchase of land needed to relocate Indiana 116 and replace a narrow bridge in Wells County, two miles southwest of Bluffton, and authorized abandonment of .3 mile of roadway at the west side of the Kokomo bypass. . •

The People’s Voice This column is for the use of our readers who wish to make suggestions for the general good or discuss questions of interest. No articles will be published without signature of the author. O • O To The Editor: In reply to your editorial entitled “Prayer in Schools,” may I make a few comments? It is true that “hasty, ill-considered action is entirely out of place” ‘ when changes in the constitution are being considered. Therefore, let us not be hasty in our judgment concerning the proposed amendment. Ulis amendment, known .as the Becker amendment, is intended to keep the following in effect! The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag; “In God We Trust” on coins and currency; prayers in public schools and all public places; prayers in congress, state legislatures and many other, official functions normally opened by prayer; the activities of chaplains in the armed services. We are aware that there are areas in these great United States which are ' not predominantly Christian. Is it not true, however, that the battle to remove prayer and all jn en tion of God from public schools was not initiated by a person of another faith but an avowed atheist? While it is true that it would not be good or acceptable practice to teach specific church doctrine in our public schools, wouH it be any wiser if we as a Christian nation would eradicate all mention of God from our national affairs? Let’s do “teach religion — and teach it well—in the home and • church.” Let us also continue to give God His rightful plage in our nation. Can we afford to do less?
