Discovered on Christmas Day

Natal, South Africa. was discov- Iered by the Portuguese explorer 'Vasco de Gama on Christmas Day 1497. He named the land Terra Natale. which means Land of the i i

Nativity. and from w h l c h the modern name was derived. It is perhaps fitting that Vasco do

Gama a ho u id have made this Christmas disravery. for his own ybirth and death occurred on Christmas Day.

LETTERS TO SANTA CLAUS' COME FROM WORLD oven

Postofiice officials in Santa Claus. lnd., are accustomed to over- loaded sacks of mail during the pre-Christmas rush. senders want their cards and gifts stamped with the famous Santa Claus postmark. plus thousands of wistful letters, ”Santa Claus. Santa Claus, Ind." And. then there is the annual crop of "Santa Claus" letters writ- ten by youngsters in far away places who havenlt heard about Santa's permanent. address in In- idiana. U.S.A. At least a dozen versions of the time honored note- in-the-bottle story find their way into metropolitan newspapers every year.

The notes sealed in small boi- tles and securely tied to Christmas trees, are discovered by Christmas tree dealers. housewives, and even enlisted men at naval centers and imilitary barracks; they come from

places like Renous. a village in New Brunswick. Canada. boasting a total population of 85 inhabi- tants.

The notes range from the wist- ful to the desperate. requesting such things as it mammn doll. n

alert. a sweater. or a pair of over- shoes.

”I'm dreaming of a white Christ- mas . . .” according to the popular. song. but the dream would be a nightmare if Christmas was as severe as that of 1830. In many parts or England the thermometer registered 24 degrees of front on Christmas Eve. With the arrival of Santa Claus came the blizzards that isolated many towns and vii- lages. and remained until the thaw

Good wishes without num- ber to you and yours as the happy feast of Christ- mne approaches. May it bless you with peace and with lasting Joy.

EGAMES FOR ALL MAKE CHRISTMAS FAMILY PARTY

Christmas is the time for family get.-weathers. one or the best ways to make these gatherings memor- able for all concerned is to engage in games which the whole group can play. - A nice one to start off with would be a Sugar Plum Hunt. Have one member of the family hide Christ- mas candies ahead of time in vari- ous nooks and corners around the house. At a given signal everyone starts htunting' and gathering the pieces. The one who gathers the greatest number would be given a prize. The Christmas Puzzle is another good one to get things going. Look through some magazines, which are filled with pictures of Santa Claus at this time of year. Cut. out enough or these to go around. paste them on still cardboard. and cut them into pieces. Then put each group of pieces in a separate paper bag. At the signal, everyone opens a bag and starts putting the puzzle toge- ther. The Xmas Scramble Contest is good for a group with older child- Len in it. This is simply a contest

see who can unscramble a group pf words the fastest. Just for fun, See if you can work out the follow- in; - astna. erireden. ehsgil, dyrica, goolknct, erte, trepe: .. hupnc. alsorc. and niborb.
