, CHRISTMAS GREETINGS
The Star of Bethlehem first
shone against a dark night, and
the Prince of Peace came to an
earth torn by war and racial
hatreds.
Yet ti#X darkness of nineteen
centuries ago could not master
that Light. Nor can the hard-
ships provoked bv evil forces
today extinguish the Hope and
Faith and Love kindled by the
divine flame. Its radiance will

Rebecca i kinci in the waY of Justice and#
I Peace.
May that Light illumine your
heart this Christmastide!

What More
Is There To Say
As our thoughts turn to you thjjt Holiday
Stason, we wonder just how we can convey
to you all that is in our hearts.
We finally choose—as always—the simplest
and sweetest message of them all: J‘Merry
Christmas.”
First National Bank
so consequently they held an in-
equal place.
Should anyone doubt woman’s
influence on man during all times
in all ages it would be well to
recall the example of Deborah
who eventually saved her people
and her country. —
It was Deborah’s great influence
that set her apart in a position to
change the course of history. Of
all/Israel’s women we are told she
was the most influential. The chil-
dren of her land frequently con-
sulted her where she dwelt be-
neath a palm tree. Her advice,
her judgments and decisions
cheered many a heart and kept
alive a hope in her people.
For 20 years the conquered He-
brews had been in bondage, cowed
into subjectftm by King Jabin of
Caanan and his ruthless Captain
Sisera.
Deborah who had won the
greatest confidence of her people
became the leader of an under-
ground movement whose purpose
was to secure the Israelites’ re-
lease from bondage.
At the proper time she sent for
the soldier Barak and asked him
to lead forces against Captain
Sisera. But although her strategy
was sound, Barak refused. He
turned down her plea not because
he was a coward but because,
realizing the odds against him
were so overwhelming, he felt his
men would surely all be slaugh-
tered. Barak Anally consented to
go if Deborah would accompany
him. .
With her magnetic presence to
buoy them up Barak and his men
won a tremendous victory at Mt.
Tabor. Sisera fled to later meet
death at the hand of Jael. And
Deborah? This member of the “in-
equal sex” became an outstanding
inspiration to women right down
to this day.
