As one m:.ght expe :t, many of the stores ha" e to do wth kndness, ::ompa.s :on, or generosty, or a combnatcn of the three. Take the story of the frst Chrstm~c-s Seal, for example-a humane :do a that took root and has heped save mllolls of lves through provcj.ng the means to fght a dread d..ease, tubt~rculoss. The story begns n Denmark on Chrstmas Fve of 1903, wth a Dansh postal Clerk workng late at hs job of sor!ug mal. As the clerk g1am ed at hundreds of cance1led s ta tnps carrytng Chrstmas greetngs, t occurn d to hun that Chrstmas stamps mght do more than ust carr.v go'od wshes. There cot]d be a. specal stamp a.t Chrstma > tnne to rase fun<ls to help the needy scc. The Dan~.oh kng cnthus)astcally apf.nncd the postal derk's dea and such a stam-o was sold n Denma:. k n 1904 ~d the money used to :1elp tuberculous chldren. The great Dansh-Amercan phlamhropst, Jacob R!:>, wrote a.n artcle n 1907 about the Danrsh Seal and urged that somerhng smlar be done n Amerca to rase unds to fght tuberculoss, then the leadng cause of death. H-s artcle was r..-ad by Emly Bssel l, a.1k-jaware welfare worker who :recall(d ll a uw mon.tl119 later when she was asl«d to rase money for the care,,f 'S(lme needy tubercuous patents. Ac.&utJ on Mr. R1s's suggeston,.m~~ B~ll desgned a Seal and put on a Chrstmas Seal Sale n Uel:J.ware durng the Chrstmas seas.on of 1~07. The people resp<mded add Mss BsSJell rase<'. ten tme> the amount for whch she had hoped. The fohowng year, 1908, the Chr<>tmas Sc-tl Sale was natcnwde and ha!> been ever sn..::e.

The grave mltary cnss n Korea and the threat of a thrd world war..:onfront th~ people of ths country wth one of the most perlous stuatons n our hstory. Now, perhaps more than at any tme n the past, the need s for steady nerves, for calmness of judgment and frmness of acdon and, above all, unty n our determnaton to preserve our natonal ntegrty and our way of lfe aganst any attack. As ths s wrtten our solders, marnes and armen n Korea and the fghtng men of other members of the Unted Natons are fallng back before the overwhelmng weght of: the Chnese communst attack. Ths onslaught was 'aunched treacherously and wth reckless dsregard of the consequences to Chna and the world. The present mltary conflat, wth ts omnous forebodngs, has presented ths country wth a problem whch s completely new n our mltary experence. For the frst tme, we face the fact that our enemes, actual and potenta:, are superor n manpower to us and our dependable alles. The stuaton was just the reverse of ths n the past wars. Then the Western powers had men n abundance, and the prmary problem was tc fnd tme to equp and tran and harden them for the fnal grand assault on the enemy. n the Worl.d War, ndeed, Alled superorty n ths feld was tremendous. Look at the stuaton nuw. Russa alone has about the equvalent populaton of the Unted _States,.England, Canada and Australa combned.. No one knows, FF'. prec~sely hovl many Chnese there a.'c: but the fl.[{ure L: somevhere n the ncg)bor:!:wcd of 450.000,000, and the brth ra~? s.l:uge..., For pany years tl:cre }u~s been an c:_)tmstc t~1eory that.no one, the Communsts ncluded, could org::mze Chna, and crca te n Chna a really effectve r::-tltary forr:e. The tcrrhle trend of ever.b-' has CP-rtanly demonst:.rat ::d the danger c f stll holdng to that theory. Mao s ~n a 1 :1e res-,mrcefpl man. t s proba0le that :. : ' he has. done - ore than any other Chnc-:k ruler to suppn. ss the de '1:JllX~tng offc! corrupton that charc:t:-:lcj 1zed Chnese g'j..-ernments of the past. He has explotej to the full Chna's old hatred and qstn:st of the West. He has made t abundantly clear, ~' hs.acts.and pronouncements n1ean anythng at all. hat l:c s ~ ~!dly an,cl 'wthout reservaton on the sde of Russa n ~bev:orld struggle. And he has bult an. army that no nformed man dare to rc ~ard wth contempt. The mltary outcome n Korea s not yet clear, but our gal- 1ant men already have suffered Eevere reversals and heart:rcakng losses. A wave of anger, tnged wth apprehenson for the future, has swept the country. But our actons now must not sprng :from motves of ar1ger or fear. The Presdent made plan that t would n~)t be an easy task b reach and mantan the :mltary strength we may nc ed. ~nd he also mad~ t clear that n addton to strengthenng our own defenses, we must contnue to work wh other fr ~e natons n the struggle aganst communsm. He sad: <lve mnst reman frm n o1u commtment to the L"nted Natons. That s the only way out of un endless crcle of force a.n : retalaton, 1olence and war- whch wll carry the human race back to the dark ages f t s not stopped." ~4- By Sarah Gelberg Ths year, as. the gala Holday se'lson s beng ushered n, our ::rjm~s and our hearts are strugglng tc p:.~t 3Sde, only momentarly, our present-day fears for world securty and humanty's ultmate survval.

Co-op Trpe Rch Bread s too good to be called "bread", "whhe bread'', or enrched' bread" accorc!ng to the present stand of the Food and Drug admnstraton. Comws,,:.ner Dunbar of F.D.A. uow propo-:e>' to hold hearngs.::m hgh proten breads to create a new. ~pecal categ-ory for breads too good to be ncluded n the s~andards just agreed on. Cooperatves oppose ths procedjre for three reasons. 1. t freezes stan,lard" for ordnary bread and does not permt bakers t'j mprove the food value of ther product. 2. t removes the McKay trplerch formula from the market of the 9So/r c>f the people who buy only "regular" breads 3. t may take several y.ars to formulate new standards. Co-op Trple Rch bread has more soy lour. (6 percent),.{heat gran (2 percent) athl mlk soljs (g percent) than specfed and therefore cannot be shpped n nter~ta.te cmnmercc. Smth's Bakery n Taneytown, 1\f d. now supples us wth ths bread under "Smth's P.V.M." label, however, so that we can cont-nue to supply :the many patrons who buy t regularly n Greenbdt. A card from Palo Alto, Calforna, nvtes us to celebrate wth the Palo Alto Co-op the openng of ts Prescrpton Pharmacy and the frst self-servce drug store n Palo Alto.

Best Wshes for a Merry Chrstmas and a Happy New Year to all Boys' Club Boxng Show By E. Don Bullan The Greenbelt Boys' Club has scheduled a 10-bout ~oxng show for SQturday, January 6, at the Center School Gym. These club boxlllg shows were very popular last year and were web attended. There s nothng.nore entrancng than watchng a 50 or 60 pounder tryng to outmaneuver hs opponent and at the same tme remember the rarous boxng sklls and technques that he has been taught. Hs expressons of determnaton and ntense desre to wn are so dramatc that they are actually funny. n fact some of the ncdents, especally n the lower weght classes are excep tonally funny. One of the funnes!\: was a youngs'ter who had to htch up hs trunks after every blow, as they were too large for hm. He would pull at hs trunks and then throw a glo\ e at hs opponent. He had the cro.vd n an uproar. The.nan purpose of boxng n tle Boys' Club s to teach the boys the art of self defense n addton to offerng every youngster an opportun''y tc enjoy the sport of hs own choosng. T1H:t e s no better character bud~ng actvty than boxng. Once a hoy steps nto the rng he s on hs own. He must of ncce~sty do hs own thnkng. E\-cn n ddcat he s taught to,how h~ ~portsmans l1p and cr,ngratulate Ls, ctorous advusary. These arc the thngs that mak.c better men. There s a popular msconcepton however that boxng s a bnaal and harmful sport. Ths may be true n professonal boxng hut ~ ar from the truth n the Duys' Cub varctv. The referee s the rea,on. He 1~ n complete charge of th c c.:'jntcst and wl mmedately st(>p any bont that n hs opnon ~hows one of the boxers to be greatly outcj~sscd.
