Not a sain, or even an exemplary one, but rather a struggling member of the Unitee Church who realizes that being a Christian in today's world is one of the hardest jobs you could find. Like other people both in Canada and abroad who share by belief, I get a little uptight about Christ- mas since I think it is far too pagan and not nearly enough Christian to suit nie. I don't think this is anything new, as I imag- ine that there have always been people who deplored the pagan aspects of the holiday.

See our Window Display Illuminated Every Evening that's what the early Christians get for trying to mix a religious event with a pagan one. It's hard enough for people to show suffic- ient reverence for a purely Christian holiday, such as Faster, let alond put religion above mat- erialistic considerations when the two are mixed. Even Easter is in danger of losing some of its religious tone to the Easter bunny, and as far as Lent is concerned, it lost out long ago to the mardi gras or Fastnocht, so in all honesty we have not really one important festival to our name which is purely relig- ious. I. can complain about such an unfortunate situation and wonder what can be done about it, but complaining isn't enough. I have come to the pessimistic conclusion that there simply are not enough people, both within the Church or outside it, who really care. The Church is hav- ing a hard enough time even holding its own, let alone revers- ing the standard concept of Christmas that has been with us ever since the beginning. If there comes a day, when the Church is a vital force in society, then perhaps something can be done to put first things first. In the meantime, we will go on spending more money than we really can afford on things that we may or may not need. If I sound pessimistic, it is simply because I regret the pres- ent attitude toward Christmas, but I have no intention of throw- ing up my hands in dispair and joining the mob. To a certain extent I think that we have to accept the dual nature of Christ- mas and try to avoid the more crass commercial aspects of the event. We can't ban Christmas trees, or the exchange of pres- ents. We can, however, make sure that, if we are going to continue with the Christmas that we have, in all honesty, always known, we can make sure that it is a time when we can emphas- ize one or more of the Christian aspects of Christmas. The pagan side always seems to do quite nicely, by itself and needs no encouragement whatsoever. A Christmas can be both merry and Christian; but only if you want to make it that way.

Keeping your car clean and in topnotch condition can bring as much as $400 extra at trade-in time over the same, but neglected model. Near Toronto, there's a Skid Control School. Students learn how to handle the problem on a 300 -foot long highway on which treacherous driving conditions are simulated. Drivers ticketed in New York State no longer face trial in criminal court. Informal hearings before referees replace judges and court -rooms.
