Holiday Hints-
•• —e«v_ _•• »-!t ^ •,—• ••
Champagne Adds Sparkle To Holiday Meals
Warn to give your holiday entertain
ing that spec ial festive edge? Serve chant
pagne!
Not just for toasting, champagne's
sparkling elegance is a stunning accom-
paniment to food, especially fish, shell-
tish. dishes with creamy sauces, even
turkey.
One of America’s favorite French
champagnes is Louis Rocderer Known
as the champagne of the stars and the
Tsars. Rocderer s famous Cristal was
first created for Tsar Alexander II of
Russia Roederer’s best-selling chant
pagne—in America and France—is the
non vintage Brut Premier, an exquisite
dry wine with discreet fruit and a subtle
loastiness.
Chef de cuisine Alain Briant of the
French Consulate in San Francisco and
the official representative of French cui-
sine in California, suggests the following
appetizer as the perfect start for an ele-
gant meal. Served with champagne, it’s
sure to be a sophisticated yet simple
addition to your holiday menus.
Bon appelit!

NEW JOBS FOR OLDER
WOMEN: According to the Ameri-
can Association of Retired Persons
and the Displaced Homemakers
Network, more than 12 million
women of middle age and older have
lost their main source of income
either through the death or disability
of a spouse, job loss by a spouse, or
divorce or separation. Many of these
women have relatively few market-
able skills. Some had jobs before
marriage, but the job market has
changed since they last worked.
Some never expected to have to
support themselves at this stage of
their lives. In any event, the prospect
of joining a workforce can be
iverwhelming. As the AARP notes.
"Many of these women ... (will) face
negative stereotypes, lower salaries,
and a general reluctance to hire
older workers."
It can also be a problem for
employers faced with a general
unawareness of how to use this
underutilized work resource.
Employers are advised to question
older employees to elicit useful
information that can help them
place an applicant in the right job.
Sample questions include: (1) What
have you done in your life that has
helped to prepare you for (the job in
question)? (2) What are your nugor
strengths? (3) What skills have you
acquired in paid, volunteer, or
homemaking experiences?
If you are an older woman who is
going back to work for the first time
in years, the AARP suggests home-
making and volunteer experiences
such as planning, coordinating,
budgeting, organizing, supervising,
training, negotiating, time manage-
ment. are all valuable skills that
could be transferred to the job
market. And, don’t forget your
education credits!

placed Homemakers Network, write

Peer Review
Organizations
by John R. LeBlanc, District
Manager, Social Security
Administration
PORT ARTHUR-The federal
government has enlisted the aid of
health-care professionals to over-
see the hospital treatment given
Medicare patients. In general, Peer
Review Organizations (PRO’S')',
which are composed of health
professionals, are responsible for
seeing that each Medicare patient
receives the hospital care that is
medically indicated in the par-
ticular case. The PRO also makes
certain lhat the care is provided in
the apropriate setting, e.g., hospi-
tal, butpatient clinic, or other, and
that whatever care is provided
tae'ets a generally accepted level of
quality.
PRO’sare also responsiblefor.in-
otstigatingipatient complaints. For
example, a person may believe that
he or she was improperly Tefused
admission to a hospital or was
made to leave the hospital too soon.
Complaints about the quality of
care a patient receives may also be
directed to the PRO; however, the
issue should first be brought to the
attention of the patient’s own
physician or to a representative of
the hospital.
A patient Who has been denied
admission to a hospital and who
disagrees with the decision may re-
quest a reconsideration. The re-
quest must be submitted in writing
within 60 days of the enial. It may
be submitted directly to the PRO or
through the local Social Security
office.
A hospitalized patient who is in-
formed that he or she must either
leave the hospital or begin paying
for the care may also request a
PRO review. The request should be
made as soon as possible by either
the patient or a family member
after receipt of the notice.

Pastor’s Corner
Old Weapons
by H. W. Harrell
When King David and his
mighty men were victorious in
bailie, they took the armour and
weapons of their vanquished
foes as trophies of the battle.
They were plaCed in the House
of the Lord. Later, the various
weapons that had fought many
a battle were dedicated and put
in the House of Ihe Lord, also.
After Solomon built the
Temple, those weapons and
trophies of David’s victories
adorned the walls in a special
place.
It was many years later. A
woman named Athaliah.
daughter of King Ahab, wife of
King Jehoram, had usurped the
throne of Judah for seven long
years. She had tried to destroy
all the rightful heirs to the
throne. One heir to the throne
had been hidden from Athaliah
for seven years. It was time for
Joash to be proclaimed king.
This was to take place in the
Temple. The bodyguards were
not armed for fear of giving the
scheme away. So they used the
old weapons and trophieds
which had been hung up in the
Temple. With those they
protected the true King.
Athaliah was slain. Joash be-
came King.
In this is a great principle.
Like the Spartans, every
Christian is born a warrior. It is
his duty to attack, and it is his
destiny to be assaulted. The
Christian has his victories, and
he should record them in his
grateful heart.
Every Christian should have
an armory in his heart on which
hang weapons and trophies of
past victories. Those old
weapons and trophies can be
used again.
David learned that principle
when he was only a lad. When
he was a shepherd boy, a lion
and a bear attacked his flock.
David slew them with a sling.
Later, when David offered to
fight Goliath, King Saul tried to
persuade David to use his
(Saul’s) armour and weapons.
David said, “No! I’ll use some-
thing I’ve used before.” So he
carried with him the old sling.
David then took Goliath’s
sword and put it in the House of
the Lord. Little did David real-
ize that the day would come
when he would go to the priest
and ask him to send him a
sword. The priest would hand
him Goliath’s sword. It was an
old trophy for which David had
a new use.
So David put old weapons and
trophies in a place of
remembrance. Some day they
would be used to save the Royal
Seed and crown him King.
“For the weapons of our war-
fare are not carnal, but mighty
through God to the pulling
down of strong holds” (II Cor.
10:4).
The Name of Jesus; the blood
of Jesus; the sword of the Spirit
which is the Word of God are all
old weapons. They are old
weapons, but they still work.
