Young male drivers who
smoke have far more accidents
than the non-smokers, says the
'Ontario Safety League. A
research study involving 2,961
U.S. airmen age 17.20 found
that among those who smoked
a pack a day, there were 75 ac-
cidents per 100 drivers. Those
who had never smoked had
only 48 accidents per '100
drivers. For those who smoked
less than a pack a day, the ac-
cidents figure was 59. The
study speculates that since
smoking increases carbon
monoxide in cars, the higher
accident rate among smokers
may be partially the result of a
significant oxygen deficiency.
Also, it was found that smokers
have several personality traits
conducive to accidents.
For years through this
column I've been telling you
what a mean mother I am for
'not permitting my children to
put all their faith in Santa
Claus at Christmas time, And
for years, I've had people
telling me that I'm cheating ray
children of something precious
to their growing up years. I'm
robbing them, people say, of
their right to childhood's fan-
tasy.,
Well, I want to relate to you
a little incident from our
household of the past week, I'm
hoping it will prove to you that
my children aren't robbed.
They've been enriched in a way
that will help them over a few
4 life's tough spots later on.
Our youngest child, you
remember, is a boy, aged six
years. Just at the right age, you
might say, for Santa to really
play an important part in his
Christmas thinking.
Like the other two kids, he
was raised knowing full well
that Santa Claus was not a real
person in the way that mommy
and daddy are real. He was
taught that Santa is a wonder-
ful part of Christmas just like
the lights on the tree or the lit-
tle glass balls that shine
through the evergreen boughs.
And he was told that Santa
could not provide miracles for
boys and girls. Instead, Santa
helped children to have happy
dreams and to feel warm and
good inside about Christmas,
Our children were all taught,
as most of you realize by now,
that Christ is really Christmas.
After all, Christmas was named
for Christ. Without Christ,
there would be no Christmas ..,
and no Santa Claus stories to
make things jolly for little
children.
Consequently, none of our
children ever wrote a letter to
Santa Claus. Pity, you say.
Perhaps, but I've always men-
tioned that putting Santa
in his proper place at Christ-
mas has not spoiled things in
any way for our youngsters.
This , year, however, our
youngest child did write a let-
ter to Santa ... and the content
of that little note proved to me
that he had the right prospec-
tives about Christmas, and
especially about Santa.,
I'm not going to tell you our
six-year old wrote a sermon.
Far from it.
And I'm not going to spell
out in detail exactly what the
letter to Santa said, That's bet-
ween my son and Santa.
But I am going to tell you
that my son's letter to Santa
had one major difference from
other letters to Santa I've seen
in the past. The letter con-
tained absolutely no requests
for gifts. It expressed only con-
cern for Santa's welfare ... and
the welfare of all the people
(elves) who work for him.
The letter was quite long and
detailed. It inquired about
Santa's health and urged him
not to work too hard, even at
the busiest season of the year
as far as his workshop was con-
cerned,
It suggested that Santa might
consider bringing some of the
elves along with him Christmas
night to lighten his work load
and speed up the journey so
that 41c1 Santa could get home
a little earlier than usual for a
good night's rest
It provided word that
something nourishing and hot
would be left for Santa in case
he should drop in. And the let-
ter even touched on the hope
that Santa would be as careful
as possible with his sled in the
event of snow or ice.
Translating the message in
the letter, I found that our son
still had some doubts about
Santa Claus and his role in
Christmas. I felt that he was
endeavouring to cover all
angles and in the event that
morn and dad were wrong
about the reality of Santa, it
was best to get word to him
about taking care of himself
and his staff.
It was obvious from the letter
that our son wanted nothing
for himself other than the
assurance that Santa (who
must be a very old man) would
be well cared for.
I think the letter confirmed the
kind of Christmas spirit our
teachings have tried to convey
... that gifts at Christmas are
secondary. What really matters
is that love, peace and goodwill
through Christ, abide.
