Children and Christmas just natu-
rally go together, especially since
this is the time we celebrate the most
precious of children, Jesus. I love to
watch kids and I had a wonderful
opportunity Saturday. My ldds and
myself had the privilege of going to
Santa's breakfast with the Keeter
family. The noise, chaos and excite-
ment art always characteristics of
gatherings where children are the
main group, but I must admit I seldom
notice anything but the excitement. I
have noticed children just naturally
gravitate to what interests them the
most. Some kids moved to arts, some
the games, others the music and then
a few couldn’t leave Santa. Each
child’s individual nature came out;
yet even among the mass their own
light shone out. As we think of
Bethlehem's star and its light let us
not forget that Jesus came as a chil-
dren. 1 think children must be espe-
cially important to God and so should
hold a special place in our lives as
well. Celebrate and enjoy this special
time and give your child the time they
need to shine. It will be a beautiful
light and I am sure you will not forget
its radiance.

MARKETING...
from three to 25 and they try to meet
every three weeks.
Weldon Mote, manager of Auebury
Grain’s Kress office, has been instru-
mental in the success of the Kress
club, Reed said, explaining that Mote
distributed a newsletter, provided a
place to meet, and helped arrange for
speakers.
As Reedpxplained f urther, the club's
meetings included program s presen ted
by marketers and brokers from across
the region.
In addition to speakers, Reed said
they ordered self-study books on fu-
tures and options from the Chicago
Board tof Trade and went through
them.
Also, nine members of the group
spent most of a day at the Extension
center in Halfway and participated in
a computer lab, Reed said.
Although the marketing club in
Kress has been doing well, Gibson
pointed out that often clubs in the
Panhandle face an uphill climb.
"Our country right here is a little bit
difficult to start a marketing club in.
Where they've worked best has been
in a singlecommodity type area, say if
they just raise cotton. It's easier be-
cause they’re all on the same time
frame with planting, with harvest, the
whole season long," Gibson explained.
In the Panhandle, he continued,

continued from page one
some farmers might be stripping cot-
ton while others were sowing wheat,
and it could be difficult to find time to
meet.
However, Reed pointed out that
farmers who recognized the impor-
tance of marketing and were inter-
ested, made the time to attend club
meetings.
According to Weldon Mote, the
farmers involved with the club have
done an excellent job of taking ad-
vantage of the marketing trends this
season and have benefited from their
knowledge.
He said that he had put together a
program that would create a budget
for individual farmers which they then
could take to their bankers and use to
develop a financial strategy.
"The main thing is, we've been able
to figure the cost of producing an acre
of cotton," Mote explained, adding
that in so doing, farmers could deter-
mine what they needed to do to make
a profit
"They've done a super job," he
concluded.
According to the Extension Ser-
vice, there will be a Master Marketing
Program 2-day session Jan. 15-16, at
the Texas A&M University Agricul-
tural Research and Extension Center
in Lubbock. Cost will be $250 per
person.
