Elizabeth Finlay Presents Topic At Youth Fellowship _Meeting The EYF of Emmanuel EUB Church met on Tuesday, Decem- ber 8, with Miss Elizabeth Fin- lay in the chair. Miss Norma Geiger acted as pianist. After the singing of some Christmas carols, Miss Emma Finlay gave a reading on Bible Phrases, "where can any better speech be found than in God's Word?" "Proverbs shows the beauty of a righteous tongue. "The tongue of the righteous is choice silver, and gentle tongue is a tree of life." In the New Testament, James gives pointed description of the destructive power of an evil' ton- gue. "So the tongue is a little member and boasts of great things. How great a forest is set ablaze by a small fire." In the Psalms, we read, "Let the floods clap their hands, let the hills sing for joy together be- fore the Lord for He cometh to rule the earth." Robert Erb read the Scripture lesson. Miss Elizabeth Finlay gave the topic on "Christmas at home." The first Christmas was celebrated in 353 AD.

A Year's Subscription To The CITIZENS NEWS Makes An Appropriate Christmas Gift Let Us Give Your Hair NEW BEAU Phone 223 ZURICH • NORMA'S BEAUTY SHOPPE Hazard Of Fire Lninvited Guest At Christmas WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1959' in that city. Winnifred told the people to take a fir tree into the home to celebrate the birthday of Christ. The burning of the Yule logs started in Northern Europe. As the Wise Men brought gifts to the Christ -child, so we today ex- change gifts with each other. Bells ring out around the world on Christmas Eve, In 1840, Yule Tide greetings came into force, and the Christ- mas cards are now sent all over the world. The star of Bethle- hem is a favorite Christmas sym- bol. It is a symbol of hope on top of the Christmas tree. The carol, "Joy to the world," was sung, after which the busin- ess session was held. Can Christmas hospitality be overdone? It can, by introducing an unin- vited and unwelcome guest to the holiday festivities—FIRE. One of the worst fire hazards comes at the best time of year—the tree at Christmas. Some helpful pointers for your Christmas decorating are offered by the Ontario Safety League. 1. Christmas lights may look identical, but can differ vastly in quality. Make sure yours have the C.S.A. (Canadian Standards .As- sociation) or U.L. (Underwriter's Laboratories) emblem of approval. These meet electrical safety stand- ards. Lights equipped with a safe- ty fuse in the plug are a good buy. 2. Make sure your outdoor lights are designed for this purpose, and are properly insulated against snow and rain. 3, Choose a fresh tree --Scotch pins lasts longest—and leave it outdoors until needed. Before you put your tree up, cut off the bot- tom an inch from the original cut and stand it in water overnight. 4. Check your Christmas tree lights for frayed wiring and brok- en sockets. Avoid splicing. Always remove the plug from the outlet before breaking connections be- tween sets of bights. Watch far any sparks when connecting or disconnecting lights. 5. It's a suicidal practice to re- place fuses with coins. Fuses are for your protection. Coins can lead to fire. 6. Be sure your Christmas tree is located well away from the fire- place, radiator, television set, pow- erful electrical lights, and other sources of heat. 7. Make sure you use 'fire -retar- dant' crepe paper when decorating, and if you use cotton under the tree be sure it is fire-resistant. On Christmas day dispose of gift - wrappings as soon as possible, 8, Removing a socket from a series of lights overloads the cir- cuit, causing overheating and fire danger. Leaving your lights on for an extended period of time can al- so cause overheating. This can be avoided by the use of en .adaptor to make lights switch on and off. 0 In conditions of poor visibility the driver of the car ahead can- not see you clearly if his rear window is obscured by snow, dirt or condensation. But he knows your position if you have your headlights turned on, points out the Ontario Safety League.
