FRIDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1941 ^/Mg the Line That must have been a most thrill ing, and to this civilian at least, a most terrifying experience, that Lieut. A. E. Krieger, Jr., had in that *‘dog-fight” over Manilla with a Jap anese airman one day last week. The young Salamancan took care of the situation very nicely according to all newspaper dispatches, which was to be espected by all who know him. With Young Ed at Manilla, with his father Col. A. E. Krieger at Gov ernor’s Island and his uncle, Capt. G. Hubert Krieger at Fort Niagara, the Krieger family is certainly doing its full duty in this grave National emergency. Active in every move ment for the advancement of the community, the State and the Nation ihe whole Krieger family whether at the front or serving a t home is show ing the spirit that has made Ameri ca great. iSome parents worry about the ancient Santa d a n legend, and fear that if they tell th-e kids that sweet old story the youngsters will come to feel later that their parents did ont tell them the truth. The children learn earlier than their parents suspect, that Santa is merely Pop dressed up in a red coat and whiskers. They have to learn that many things in life are not to be taken literally. Santa and his reindeer are too beautiful a tale to be thrown out tbe window. The old Greeks and Romans made their coun tries powerful by legends about their old hero warriors, which made the people emulate those brave men. The Santa Claus story seeks to make the young people kind by exalting the old saint wiho gives things to good children. There is a great library of music included in the songs known as Ohristmas carols. Back centuries ago people-of all types used to gather in churches, on the streets, and in homes, to sing these sweet songs. They breathe an atmosphere of hope and faith, and tell us that above a dreary and warring world, the angels are singing a song of hope for hu manity, and that out of the darkness of the storm and the wickedness of men, shall eventually be born a bet ter world. - These carols have cdme echoing down, the centuries, because people loved them and never gave up sing ing them. They sparkle with Christ mas happiness, and the stars look brighter and the clouds seem less thick, when these happy chants float through the wintry air. War is like a fire, it naturally spreads. When war broke out in Europe and Asia, many of our best people ibelieved tbe United States should remain absolutely neutral. It is quite possible that if they had avoided giving any aid to Britain, Russia, or. China, they- could have Remained wholly out of the present war. 'Our people are not accustomed to be neutral. They are folks with stxong S3nnpathies. When they see great wrongs done, they have a de sire to do something about it. They feared that if they did not h€lp the democratic nations in their 'desperate struggle for existence, lihese countries would all be over- iehelmed. -So they have extended generous aid,, and the result is that thousands lie dead and wounded m Hawaii and elsewhere, with naval units badly damaged. All these con troversies over aiding the democratic natrons have passed. We have been attacked ourselves, and when Uncle Sam is attacked, the people who did it would better watch out. Tree Owns Itself A white oak near Athens, Ga., is unique in that there was wiUed to it by its owner, William H* Jack- son, **for and in consideration of the great love I hear this .tree and the great desire I have for its protec- Bon . . . entire possession of itself and all land within eight feet of the tree on aU sides.” This deed, dated 1820, is recorded in the town clerks oflSce.
