‘ WHAT TO GIVE By Dave Wickstrom SHS Junior Wlx*n our dear Lord was bom on that first Christmas night In a stable dark and cold, A promise was bom, a Savior born Who by prophets had been foretold. | Hosts of angles appeared to some shephreds that night. At the time of our dear Lord’s bath. They gave forth . a message, a ' new one it was. Os “Peace to all men on earth.” ’ To Bethlehem town the shepherds did go. When they heard that the Christ did live. With reverent hearts, they fell to their knees Before Him their worship to give In a far eastern country, a new star was seen By wise men on that wonderful night. To them Twas a sign of toe Christ child’s birth. So westward they followed its light At last they did see that the star's light did shine. O’er a house in small Bethlehem town. And before the Christ child, with worship and praise. Their treasurers they did lay down. The shepherds gave worship, the wise meh gave gifts, But what can we people give? The Lord wants naught else, save all that we haw. And the lives that we now do live Mr and Mrs, James Todd, Syracuse, entertained Mr. and Mrs. Lam* Todd and family of Goshen, Sunday. Dec. 19. with a Christmas dinner and gift exchange.

Good luck in that game I and at the tourney. . . The cheerblock is still going strong, along with the cheerleaders. Everyone knows what an untimely date, that the game is set for. New Years EJve But lets try and all be there as it starts at 6:30 , and will be over before most of the parties start. . . We crowned our Homecoming Queen, Mary Kay Bush ong, Friday night. Congratulations' She's a very pretty girl and just as sweet. . . The dance Saturday night was a lot of fun. Mrs. Talmadge got into the swing of things by doing, some fast dances. The lighting was kind of cool. The only •rouble was. as one girl commented, “You could hardly see whom ou were dancing with." . . bast Friday the student body had a dm on traffic accidents. It was designed to make people think bycompiling pictures of all the most gruesome accidents into one fdm. Let’s all. students and adults alike, remember that a car can be a handy thing or a dangerous one. During the holidays or any time of the year stay alert and cautious while driving. .. All the participants of the Christmas Concert Sunday did fine jobs. Th-' Madrigal Singers were especially enjoyed Mr. Bame has done wonders with all three groups, the band, the chorus, and the Madrigal Singers, but all the credit can not be given to him because these students | are extremely talented young people. . .

Lakeland j Youth News By Bud Smith Our Christmas party and dance was a real swinger with music by the “New Olympics”. Our NewYear’s Eve party will be after the | game Friday night and will last until 1 a.m. Music will be provided by the “Uncalled Four” There will be a carry-in of sandwiches, cake, cookies or most anything like that. We will dance until 12 then eat. If [you- wish you can bring your things to the ball game and we will provide 'a table to put them on until after the game when you can take them to the Youth Center. This will not be 1 a dress up dance due to the ball game. I Due to uncontrollable circumi stances last week’s news did not appear. but I have a couple of things I would like to carry over to this week. I shall devote the rest of this article to these. Our Heart Warmer table did very well this year, and we had plenty of i food and clothing for our two families, we found to help. Best of all we were loaded with toys for the little ones. At this time I want to pay tribute to a wonderful organization called the Junior Ladies of the Round Table. This group of truly fine young ladies asked if they could help make this Christmas a little nicer for our two families by wrapping the gifts we had for them. I agreed and on their meeting night the whole club turned out at toe Youth Center armed with paper, bows, ribbon and scissors and wrapped everything that w-asn’t breathing. Before long they had transformed our Heart W’ariner table into a beautiful pyramid of gifts all markled for age and for a boy or a girl. | My hat is off to the Junior Ladies *©f the Round Table. i Last Thursday we delivered these things to our two families. I find it impossible to find the words to express my feelings as we took the toys, clothing and food to toe little ones. I will say, that those beautiful little faces with wide eyes sparkling and the tiny thank you from each one made this a very Merry Christmas for me. and if you would like to hear some really warm feelings on this subject just ask Anita Hess. Ruby Kern or Kathy Brock as these girls helped deliver the presents. I In closing I would like to say that I was greatly impressed by the Christmas concert at the high school. This was a wonderful program with the chorus. Madrigal choir and band directed by Mr. Bame and it was a real credit to our music department. It makes one proud to be from Syracuse where this young talent abounds Mav I wish you all a very Happy and Properous New Year. Bud. Miss Janice Pikher. a senior and Mbs Linda Pikher. a frwbman of Anderson college, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Pilcher. Syracuse, are in the home of their uarents and family for- the holiday vacatiOTt said that a car driven at 60 miles an hour, would hare the force of a cae driven off a 12 story building. So nlease drive with care this hoiidav so everyone will hare a Merry Christmas.
