It's sore to be under the tree on Christmas morning," It isn't any wonder then, the 600 little monsters in Fort Lauderdale Whipped St, Nick to.

There's no rule that says you h Theto wadauitltysooufr tt huirsn continentl ike little lcaaadnvieefseaell ci proudgent1 etm'h that w1 e've taught our children just how to enjoy Christmas. The modern interpretation of goodwill is to get whatever you want however you can....but with a smile on your face and a cheery tune on your lips. Our offspring have learned fast and well, We shouldn't be astonished that they would mug poor Santa Claus for a few candies. For as milk Years as I've been writing this column I've been saying that Santa Claus is not revered at our house. He is simply a lovely character from a storybook, a kind of mythical spirit which has no real meaning except in games of make-believe. I've taken ail kinds of abuse from all kinds of people through the years because of my stand on this matter, but I remain firm • in my conviction that Santa Claus should not be the heart of Christmas in our home. _ _ And do you know what? I'll bet my children lov". Santa Claus as much as - maybe even more than - your children do because they know he's a happy side of Christmas which will provide excitement only as long as we want to pretend that he does. He's any way we want him to be because he's only in our imagination....and imagination, as everyone knows, is one of the most versatile part of the human mind. But our mind came from God and so did Christ....and so did Christmas. WHAT IN THE WORLD IS OXFAM? Travel Agency/ Baby food? Airline? Detergent? Development Agency!

Mowatt officiated at the double-ring ceremony. Mr. Budd Boyes, Clinton was soloist singing "My Prayer" and "Walk Beside Me" accompanied by Mr. Lorne Dotterer, Goderich at the organ. Given in marriage by her father, the bride chose a full-length gown in crystal peau and guipure lace, Gibson Girl style with Mandarin Neckline, empire waist and long full sleeves and with an A-line skirt and detachable Chapel Train. The gown was accented with guipure lace on bodice, neckline, sleeves and edge of train. The bride's veil was of Imported French Illusion accented with guipure lace and pearl garland head-piece. She carried a bouquet of apricot sweetheart roses with white stephanotis throughout. Matron' of honour was Mrs. Budd Boyes, Clinton (sister of the bride), and the bridesmaids were Miss Cheryl Pyke, Clinton and Mrs. Diane Freeman also of Clinton. The flowergirl was Miss Patrice Thompson, niece of the groom and the ringbearer was Byron Boyes, nephew of the bride. The bridesmaids wore gowns styled much the same as the bride's of apricot polyester crepe and the flowergirl's dress was contrasting in white polyester crepe with apricot trim. They carried baskets of bronze and yellow mums with wisps of wheat accented through it. Mel Hohner was groomsman, while Don Freeman and Chuck Andrews ushered guests. Following the wedding, a reception was held at the Clinton Legion Hall.

Prior to the wedding the bride was honoured with 'showers at the homes of Miss Linda Wylie, London; Mrs June Cooper, Kippen and Mrs. Elaine Boyes, Clinton. I've noticed that Christmas has been deteriorating now - from an overall point of view, of course - for a few years. People are becoming more and more callous about what used to be considered the most joyous Season of the year. In fact, it isn't easy for those of us who still love Christmas to remain untouched by all the cynicism which accompanies the modern Yuletide. The Scrooge which appeared that Christmas long ago was just a big old softie compared to the people who celebrate Christmas these days. Just the other day I was reading about an incident in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It seems that Santa Claus was arriving by helicopter at a shopping centre in that city and as the Old Elf disembarked, a crowd of about 600 youngsters rushed him, knocked him down and stole his bag of goodies. "I thought I was going to be killed," Santa told the newsmen later, "They broke down the barriers and rushed me. I got knocked to the ground and couldn't even move. I finally managed to get up and I yelled `Get back! Get back!' and kept most of them off me until the police could get through." That's really typical of our generation, though. We're too civilized now to enjoy simple pleasures such as Christmas carols and gift giving and dinner among good friends. We have to be suave and sophisticated and introduce Santa Claus onto the scene at every possible juncture, making him the patsy for our own failures to recognize the real joys of Christmas. And poor old Santa does take a beating, doesn't he? He's not loved by the children. He's used miserably to fulfill selfish dreams which would be better off unfulfilled. He's a pawn in the game of making children go to bed early for a month before Christmas so moms and dads can get out to the big bash next door or at the club. Every year Santa loses more favor with the kids, probably because he didn't produce the full order the previous Christmas. It really takes a level-headed set of parents to keep a youngster on an even keel at Christmas time with television and radio and posters and storekeepers constantly whispering in their ear, "Just tell INSURANCE K.
