The Very Best Christmas

LOOK ING back through our lives I ('XI)('CL ('vcry one of us can recall

to mind onc particui<lf Chl"istmas thut lives in our melllory as "the "cry best Christmas." I hope your Chl'istlllus (his year was your "v(','y best Christmns." Now I thought it would be niel' to discuss on OUI" I);lge this 1\10nth what makes Chl"istmas so wondcrful -what lJlukl's certain Clll'istmuscs !Otund out in our memory and to start \\'orkin~ now toward next Christmalt -and c\'cry Christmas from now alIso that cueh Chl'istmas. evcry Christmas, ,\om be "the ,'CI-" best Christ-mas," .

Wha l Is It '!

F'irst. of all, what is Christmas? It's the celebration of the birthday or the Christ Child-the King of the WOl'ld Who came into the world to show that \\,0I·1d a better way of liff' - a way that emphasized 10\'e amI truth,

So each Christnms, to be !J l'c;I1 ChrIstmas, should illchlde something of th ... rea] Spil'it of what Chl'istmllS ;1I and means, The Christ Child should not be rOI'!~otten in thf' hustle and bustl(' of Chl';stmns buying and wrap]Iing, I::ach home should have a little Nath'ity scene nnd the childrcn should b(' told IIbout it, about its m('anillg, Th(' wonderful Bible story of the Birth of the SaviOl' should be rcnd ('very yenl ..

In preparation ror this article, I nskl'd s('\'(!ral of my friends to relnte to nH' some events that stood out in their minds making pnst Christmases Inemomble,

One gil'l said, "The Christmas I l'emf'lllb('r best was a cold , snowr one, Qne Chriijtmns F.:ve, my mother gathcn.,d we childl'en nil together IlI'OUIlII the fire, Then she lighted ;1 CHndle'n Christmas candle to light the Christ Child' she said, :tnd then sh(' op.mcd hel' Bible ;Jnd read \IS the Christmas StOl'y, I ne\'er remember feeling so llIuch peace and love and !Security befon- 01' lIince,"

That is an experience rou can gi\'e )'our family every yeal",

Christ mas ) lea ns Gh 'ing

Now about giving, Christmas mcnn8 gi,-lng, I a,<; kpd my fri('n cl!l about f1l vol"ilc gifls they hnd received through the yem's-oncs thry I'Cmem bered best.

One fricnd remembered a IItlle doll, fOl' which hel' mother hnd 1lI:1de clothes,

One r('mem bcred a miniutul"e of h!.'r mother which a sister hnd had mnde for ;J surpl'ise,

One girl remembel'ed n little workbox which her grandmother had fu:ed for hel", nil fitted with a rC'd tomato pin cUHhion, bits of lace lind button8 :IlId l'ibbon8,

Still :tllothel' friend rec:ltled a IittlC' footstool for which a dcur friend hud madC' II lIeedlepoint tO i l,

r-~1'icnds, who read this ]luge, whnt stllllds out In the recital of these gifts 1 Were t.hey Pllrtieulul"ly valuable~ No, Wel'e they eSlledully unusunl1 No, Whut then, madc them remembered? Each was a gi l t selected especially for the recipient. Some wOl'k lind thought and effort went into each one, They were thoughtful Kirts, Anyone can buy a gilt fOl' a {I'iend or relativc, It will be appreciated surely, But the special gilt-thc onc that you know was picked just for )'OU, or made just for you, with ellre and lov~th:lt is T HE gilt-the gift remembered and lo\'ed,

•

Sl art ~o'" For St'~ 1 Yeu r

With that in mind, \\'(' CUll wOl'k next year and ('very year lowanl sclecting gifts for our ll"iends thnt show we thought of them especinl1~' an(1 picked their gifts with thou/l:ht :lIId care, The items sn:ltched 1111 011 a bHl'gain table seldom hmd themf<('lv('s to the pleasure of being chel"ish('(l and remembered, The little Chinese jew,cI box sought out diligently ill the antIque shop of your town, by the friend who knows how much "Oil like Chinese items-I hat is a ~ift' Sl1l"e to be nppreeiated and 1'H'ed,

And while we' re speaking of gh'ing -no Chl'istmas giving is e\'er ('omplete, no matter how much mOllt'y is spent, how many relnth'cs ami friend!! Hre l"('lllcl'lbel'cd, if some ul1(0I11111:It(' pel'Son who has no one to remember him, is not ihought of.

Save For th e I'oor

There are mnny people in m~' n(', quaintance who put !lsid,' n coin (,,'err week, ns I'cguludy liS the~' keep UI'

their Christmas Savings accounts, toward helping some 11001' 1)('1"Bon Ht Christmas, It is simply nmllzing how many little children, how mmw old folks, would be forgotten lit Ciwistmas time, if it wcre not fOl' nil thel'e '"Brothers' Keepers" who cOllle forward at Christmas time and help,

Each of us should do whtH we Clln lInd put some heart into it, J ust send-

Noll' what elSe makes Chl'istmus memomble? \Vh), the decorations IIl1d

the parties. In 111)' pl'jyatc little sul .... ·cy-asking

my friends to tell me Ilbout the "best" Christmas they C\'er had, 1I1l1ny say they cannot pick a THE best one, but in the cou)';;e of the conversation, the}' oftcn recalled some special decoration or some purticulm' ChristmilS entc r tainment that brought b:lck fond memories,

One friend remarked, " I rcmember onc Christmas trce 11'0 hud, We went out in the woods ourseh'es and brought it in. I'll never smelJ the scent of pine again without thinking of that happy Chl'illtmnll."

Another made this comment: " 1 1· ... lllembel· 0111.' yellr when we all made 11 Bella Robbin Christmas wrellth lor our front door. Mother engineered the job but aU of us helped, We thought it was a masterpicee-I'II neyer forget it."

~~amily memol'ies of things donl' together lOl' Chrilltnllis-to make Chl'istlllas merl'y-remain in the memory. Friend H('adel'S, keep that in mind.

Now the parties! Every famil~' should do SOlne Christmas entertaining and should have IIpechll holidny dishes that become :Issociated with Chl'istmas-thnt become a Chl'istmas tradition,

Coast Guard Recognizes Texas Marine Service L. u. 4i9, BEA U) ION T, T EX/\ S.This local has had in its membel-ship some "unsung heroes" (ai' a number o( yeal-S now, These member"S are marine wiremen and appnmtices, ,' Ial'ine men in OUI' local are definitely in the minority, but they do desel've words of praise and llIention, These men l-epresent a large and gTowing indust1'Y, In this caSe the backbone of this industry in the Gulf Coast area is Mcintosh i\lal'ine Sel'\'ice,

Mcintosh and it s work has long been a credit to OUI' local. The men who wOI'k (or the coml,an), are pl'Oud to be a par1. of this large and gl"'Owing industry,

In the past 10 years it has becom('

nccessal'y for au)' marine services to expand with our oil industry, As you probably know there are over' 180 drilling rigs and phl tforms operating in the Gulf at this time, These rigs range (rom l'tlississilllJi to Browns· ville, Texas, and Mcintosh olTe!"!; service to them all, Twenty-four hour sen'ice, pickulI and dclh'er-)' are just Ilart of the many advantages this company olTel'S, Tiwir service includes towboats, offshore drilling barges, and all other sea-going vessels,

McIntosh builds to any specifications, generator eontl'Ol and distl'ibution SWitchboards, motor control cen tel-S, alal'm pauels, battery charging panels and all types of custom-built motor controllel-S, This company al!IQ has a complete repair depal1.ment (or all motors and tranS(Ol"Jners, An ex-

ample of a large job recently accomplished by this de llal'tment included cOlllllletely disassembling and reinsulating all revolving fi eld coils in a (;000 H,P, T-2 TankeI' Propulsion MOtOI', This department can a lso stone any size slip rings in the field and recently completed stoning slip rings on a 5500 H, P., 3 phase synchronous motor on an industrial application in Orange, Texas,

Three to five real'S work is already on contl'act in this area. In the l,asl it has been impossible to supply enough mariJle wireman for the wOI'k in this jurisdiction , We would like some o( the good marine BI'othel's to investigate the possibilities in Ihis ar'ea, This marine wo!'k is one of th" l-ea!IQnS why L, U, 479 supplies good men (01' good jobs.

:'low we want to say a word or two about our' ball ieam,

One night last June 14, tired and down-hearted, ball playe!"!; walked off the field arte" a 13-2 defeat, The next game wasn't much bette I', but the third must have been II. charm (or after that thc boys caught fire, T hey played the rest of thl! sca!IQn like a new club and finished the ci t y leag ue in theil' division in second place, T he local tOPIJed it 01T by giving the boys and their (ami lies II. steak dinner. You can bet they will be back next year better' than ever,

As a side nole, why don't some of the rest of you local boys get up some clubs! It's great (un (01' the members and promotes good will to everyone concerned,
