' " ' ' United Stated Jj ChrhtmaA Carol 'Meeting Place' IN TOWNS AND CITIES throughout through-out America, in churches, public squares and along home - lined Streets, over millions of radios and public address systems come .the strains of the world's Yuletide melodiesold melo-diesold as bygone centuries, young as "I'm dreaming of a white Christmas. Christ-mas. . ." The United States, meeting place of carols from all Christendom, Chris-tendom, contributes yearly to the traditions of Christmas music by writing new songs and popularizing old ones. The carols of Europe arrived with the peoples who came to America to settle. "O Come, All Ye Faithful" (Adeste Fideles), eventually even-tually translated into 119 languages and dialects, belonged to no one nation but was the common gift of the continent. From Germany came Luther's hymn for children, "Away In a manger, no crib for a bed. . ." England sent "God rest you, merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay. dis-may. . ." And France provided the beautiful "Cantique de Noel" or "0 Holy Night." Three American composers did much to revive the ancient custom by writing new songs which are, today, to-day, among the world's best beloved be-loved carols. "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear" was the Inspiration of Edmund II. Sears, a Massachusetts Massachu-setts Unitarian minister, In 1849. Less than 10 years later Dr. John Henry Hopkins, Jr., Episcopal Epis-copal rector from Williamsport, Fa., composed both the words and music for "We Three Kings of Orient Are." Perhaps the best-known American Ameri-can carol, "0 Little Town of Bethlehem," Beth-lehem," was written in 1868 by Phillips Brooks in Philadelphia. The young Episcopal minister, later bishop of Massachusetts, was inspired in-spired to write the poem by the memory of a trip to the Holy Land two years earlier. The rollicking "Jingle Bells," though non-religious in theme, also came from the pen of a churchman, John Pierpont, and has enjoyed almost a century of popularity.

Currier and Ives Cardi Commercial production of Christmas cards in the United States began about 1835 with the founding and developing of the partnership of Currier and Ives in New York. For more than a century American painters have aided the industry by painting Christmas Christ-mas themes on order or by selling sell-ing reproduction rights to the art which is now conservatively estimated as worth $10,000,000 annually. The favorite Nativity theme is represented by hundreds ef interpretations. Winter scenes are net in popularity, some of them dating back to the Puritans Puri-tans of New England, the German Ger-man forests whence St. Nicholas Nicho-las emerged, and ever to the Dnii.is of pre-Christian Eng-lanj.

Here's how it's done: Use three or four cups of soap flakes to one cup of warm water. Beat with electric elec-tric beater or hand beater until smooth and fluffy. Then spread immediately im-mediately over branches of tree, scattering it on with hands. For sparkle, spread on some arti ficial glistening snow. Wf, PE1ICED CAR !

Kent Fielding, Orem National Guard officer and probable commander of the National Guard unit to be organized organ-ized in Orem, this week released a statement explaining the purposes pur-poses and program of the National Nat-ional Guard. In his statement Lt. Fielding views the guard as "a method of training persons for military service who would be greatly inconvenienced by having hav-ing to serve away from home." Lt. Fielding's statement follows: foll-ows: Since the announced intention of the State Adjutant General to form a unit of the National Guard in Orem, I have been approached ap-proached by several persons who have desired to know something some-thing of the purpose of the Guard and its place in the Nation's Nat-ion's defense plans. I believe this inforamtion would be of genera interest and so have prepared pre-pared this article to outline those purposes. In view of the tense state of international in-ternational affairs the military defense planners of our nation are faced with the necessity of having ready for immediate action act-ion a large body of well-trained troops. To meet this necessity they have authorized a rather large standing army. But this is not enough. In this day of global glob-al wars, the entire efforts of all the nation's citizens will be required re-quired to win. The planners must, therefore, have other large groups of men in some degree de-gree of preparation ready for call, but who are not on full time pay status, and subsequently subse-quently not so expensive. The National Guard is such a group. In event of total mobilization they are ready for call with but little additional preparation. To illustrate the use of the National Guard we may take their employment in the Korean crisis. When it became necessary to use troops the regular army was immediately alerted and 9 ( . x . . . t 1 y t. 4 , "A ' , , 'rfr vf (Cj , . ... , ,,' ' kw UTAH OIL REFINING CO. and Stations and Dealers in Highest Quality Petroleum Products sent out. This left the Nation critically short of trained men. To fill this vacancy units of the Guard were alerted and sent to strategic centers for training. It was not then and is not now contemplated to use these units in actual warfare. They are emergency em-ergency troops to be used until more regular army can be raised and trained through the draft This is made clear by Defense Secretary Marshall's recent statement that as soon as trained train-ed men are available the Guard will be released and sent home. I do not wish to indicate that the Guard will not be used in case of an all out war. In such an event they would of course take their place beside the regular reg-ular army for the duration of the emergency. Unless and until such a war comes, however, the Guard is strictly auxiliary, strictly secondary. The need3 of such a crisis as now exists in Korea will be' met by drafting men into the regular Army. The place of the Guard, then, should be clear. It is a method of training persons for military service who would be greatly inconvenienced in-convenienced by having to serve full time away from home. It is designed to accomodate the university un-iversity studest, those who wish to remain on a good paying job. those who could not support their dependants on an army salary asd who wish to build up their ran in case they do have to go. Anyone who would be drafted draft-ed anyway in case of an all out war can thus keep in training and meanwhile protect themselves them-selves from the uncertainties of the draft. They can be assured that if there is a war they will fight with men and officers whom they know and whose methods of living are similar to theirs. Recognizing the importance of the Guard, the defense planners plan-ners have authorized them to accept as enlistees any person who is draft age but has not yet 'QranJpa 9ro3t' Mpi Ru33ian3 Celebrate Midwinter 9eslival Although Christmas is no longei a holiday In Soviet Russia, a ncn religious midwinter festival is celebrated and children receive gifts from "Grandpa Frost." In Czarist Ru -sia, it was customary custom-ary for well-to-do families wi!h large homes to entertain lavishly on Christmas day. The invitations invita-tions were extremely formal and begged the invited to consider that. ". . . for thousands of years it has been so; with us it has no commenced, with us it will m t cease. Do not, therefore, disturb the festival; do not bring the guod people to despair. Without you there will be no maiden festival a Anna Karpowna's." In planning these housetjartics, hostesses gave particular attention to the selection of partners for the young ladies. The selection was sometimes very satisfactory and sometimes left something to be desired. de-sired. Arrival of the "fair maidens," each with her mother and retinue, bringing cake and sweetmeats and gifts for everyone, proceeded according ac-cording to prescribed ritual; the guests sooner freezing in their sleds befoie the gate than to alight before receiving the greeting of the host and hostess. Having been ceremoniously welcomed, wel-comed, the guests offered prayers before the icon (sacred picture) and then proceeded to the feasting and festivities arranged for them. received notice to report for physical examination. In this way the Guard serves the community com-munity by preventing serious in terruptions of necessary civilian activities, meantime preparing the Naton's citizens for its defense. de-fense.
