JESUS AT TWELVE
1 SATURDAY, DEC. 22, 1051 a = aes ors | re
THE PEOPLE that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath light shined . . . For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and of peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts
will perform this.
The Prophecy of Isaiah Chapter 9, 700 B. C.
i By PAUL GUINNESS "Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the eoasts thereof, from 2 years old and under, according
to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men. Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying: “In Ramah was there a voice heard, lamentation, and> weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping ~ for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.” But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Eypt, saying: “Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go itno the land of Israel; for they are dead which sought the young child’s life.”
= ” » AND HE arose, and took the young child and: his mother, and came into the land of. Israel, But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in the room of his father
“thither. Notwithstanding, being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee, and he came and dwelt in the city called Nazareth: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets: ‘He shall be called a Nazarene.”
.Five-Policeman Wilhest— Henry (The Dutchman) Outranks McGrath
By ANDREW TULLY Scripps-Howard Staff Writer
WASHINGTON, Dec. 22—They finally haul in Henry (The Dutchman) Grunewald before the King
Committee investigating income tax scandals and it's like they were testing a new A-bomb.
They have cops—five—plus an Errol Flynn-ish character with a gun to see that the reporters do not make a nuisance of themselves. These cops are stationed at all the doors leading to the Ways and Means Committees room in the new House Office building and they do not let the reporters do much more than breathe, quietly. One reporter tries to peak
. through the crack in one of the
double doors but he is hauled
_Herod, he was afraid to go.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Here is a new, dramatic recital of the wonderful old story of Christmas. Paul Guinness was a British army chaplain in the last war. He was imprisoned for twe and a half years in German camps. His only possession was a New Testament. From It he blended the events of the four Gospels into one running, harmonious story of the Life of Christ. After the war, Guinness’s remarkable version appeared in England as a book. This is the last of six chapters taken from the book, THE CHRIST OF ALL NATIONS, recently published by Association Press.
And - the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom and the grace of God was upon him. Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover. And when he was 12 years old, they went
~up--to Jerusalem after the. cus- ..
tom of the feast. And when ‘they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not of it.

went a day's journey; and sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance. And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him. And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hear-
questions. And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.
» » » AND WHEN they saw him, they were amazed; and his mother said unto him: “Son, why hast thou -thus dealt with us? behold, thy fath-
ing-- them; -and-- asking them
er and I have sought thee sorrowing.” And he said unto them: “How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?” And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.
...And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her” heart. And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with: God and man.

away by a burly dick who tells him that is not allowed and how many times does he have to be told, anyway? Later, tfie cop isn't looking and this reporter gets a peek into the room and Mr. Grunewald’s mouth is working up and down like he is delivering a lecture on evolution. But this apparently cannot be so, because when the meeting breaks up both Mr. Grunewald’s lawyer and committee counsel Adrian W. DeWind say Mr. Grunewald did not say a thing, not even hello. In fact, the lawyer, William Powers Maloney, says Mr. Grunewald is never going to talk to the committee in any executive ses-
sion but demands his right to be heard right out in public.
He will not let Mr. Grunewald even cough or clear his throat in front of the reporters, who are a cunning lot and want to hear whether Mr. Grunewald has a guttural voice like that mysterious telephone caller in the Abraham Teitelbaum $500,000 taxfix plot. Mr. Grunewald, whose name has] been mentioned by practically every witness in the inquiry into the extortion case, turns out to be a fat man with a bald head, a shy smile and a protruding lower lip like the one on the movie actor, Charles Laughton. He smiles that shy smile at the reporters and sweats a little under the newsreel lights but every time he starts to say something Mr. Maloney turns on him fiercely and says ‘no comment.” Maybe everybody should revise their estimates of Mr. Grunewald’s importance. Even Att torney General J. Howard MecGrath didn’t rate five cops when he testified.

Partner Preference Signal Pays Off
HERE are many variations of the suit preference signal. Mr. Masters
made such a signal in today’s deal by playing his clubs in an “unnatural” manner. . Mr. Champion was smart enough to recognize that the play of the clubs could not possibly be intended as any other kind of a signal than a suit preference. He played a c cordingly and defeated the contract. The opening lead was the

Here Mr. Masters had to make a discard. He was practically certain his partner had started with a lone club. If he could get a spade lead from Mr. Champion at this point, he could probably cash the queen and ace of that suit, then lead a club for his partner to ruff. As you see, the largest spade he could spare was the trey and that wouldn't look much like a come-on. The smallest diamond he could play was the
