They should treat each other as brothers and neighbors. There should be no wars or fighting or feeds in this wor.ld.. If this world was meant for fighting, God would have made us guns. If stupid men did not fight and argue there would be no fights today. The Peace on Earth part was meant that there should never be any disagreements but little arguments start into big fights. All men should have a free will but they shouldn't use it in a had way. They should use this gift for good purposes in this world, eg. they should use their minds to be great scien- tists, mathematicians, technicians and teachers.

Christmas Special, The Goderich Si ' Signal -Star, Sat. Inc. 22, 1973—P&P 3 God would ,have made. us .guns• control over their temper and this shows how they get rid of it. They play out their temper by doing dramatic music. When the Saviour was born he meant this word to be a nice place to live in not all wars and fighting. He saw there would be disagreements between men for as long as they live. He tried to teach them the right way to live but they would not listen nor pay any attention to his preaching. They just went on living their own way and arguing just the same. What do they think this statement was made for? Looks? Sound? People should 'listen and heed this phrase and try to live up to its meaning. People see people today and never say Hi„or even, good -day they just go their separate ways without even a smile. To make the situation better today peoples„should be more friendly and then this world. wouldn't be so bad off. If they could just get along and treat each other, with respect as' I said before, it would be great. Lnts of television shows, stress violence and fighting and killing. Kids think its great but really there shouldn't be those kinds of shows on TV because its encouraging violence. People should listen to other people and think on their opinions. They shouldn't just drop 'the subject right away. Listen to other people when they speak and they will listen to you. If people acted like people and reacted in the same way as a union and not in ,a separate way this world be a bigger, bet-. ter and nicer place to live in. Anne Marie Murphy St. Mary's What Christmas Means to Me • Most families celebrate the birthdates of each of the other members in the family. Christ, a member. in every family, should have .this birthday celebrated also. He is but our most important member who gave us all the will to live from his birth to ..this date. When a member in a family is born, this family rejoices for new life has been brought .into the world. From that date thereafter it is celebrated just the same in order to retain the faith of love in that particular being. Some form of present may be given to show the faith and "love we have in that mem- ber. As Christ lives in us all we give presents to each other in jubilation of the day when our saviour was born and to tell Christ that our love towards him still exists strongly. Christmas means to me the presenting of love to one who is close to you on Christ's birth- day. Although this is carried out each day we have set aside a special date, which is Christ's birthday, to reassure each other of our love for then. Teri Van Dongen. ' Qrade 7 Holmesville P.S.

The angels sang it in the sky over the manger where Christ lay. Does this .statement still apply today? Take a look at Watergate or the Arab-Israeli war. They can fight the whole year around, but at Christmas they'll stop. Why don't they stop forever? After all, Christ is always with us. Then there's the battle bet- ween the blacks and the whites. If people would put themselves in other 'people's shoes, they would find that people have very good reasons for doing the things they do. "Peace on Earth Good Will to Men" means loving and "understanding our neighbour.

Who knows how long t will ^'take with crimes like Watergate and national scandals still happening. But as time of Christmas people seemed to make an effort to be merry on the days around Christmas, but it all goes away in a short time. I feel if people tried to keep •the Christmas spirit the words which . were said by the angels, Peace On Earth Good. Will to Men on Christmas- Eve would have meaning though out the world.
