Hopefully, those who voted and especially those who didn't, will continue to show their interest in the association and will help to make this coming year a good one for all of Holiday Hills. The new officers are anxious for everyone's support, regardless of how they voted in the election, for it is only by Holiday Hills Ronnie Kellen & Marge Connell New Slate Of Officers Elected Association After one of the most in­ teresting elections in many years, our Holiday Hills Property Owners Association has elected a new group of officers for the coming year. More than one hundred voters were on hand to vote last everyone working together that we can hope to improve our area and make Holiday Hills one of the nicest places in which to raise our families. The following people were elected to office: President - Ed Hughes; Vice-President - John Foltz; Recording Secretary - Phyllis Harper; Corresponding Secretary -" Joan Cornwell; Treasurer - Vi Abbink; Sunday • Luke 1: 5-17 Mondy • Luke 2: 25-38 Tuesday • Matthew 18: 1-14 Wednesday • Galations 4: 4-7 Thursday Hebrews 8:8-12 Friday • Hebrews 9: 11-15 Saturday • Exodus 20: 1-17 A child's faith is beautiful in its simplicity and in the little things it Encompasses. Like, for instance, the nightly ritual that comes at the end of prayer. "God bless Mommy and Daddy and Cousin Peter and Kitty Kat and my blue teddy bear." To a child, there is no reason why God should not bless also a crumpled and slightly soiled teddy bear, and a pet kitty. For God is goodness and love and kindness and tolerance . . . not per­ haps in those words, but in the feeling-this child has as she says her prayers. Prayer, to the child who has been taught to pray, is a natural thing. It should be as much a part of everyday life as eating and sleeping and playing. To pray for what is good . . . to give thanks for what one has is an all-important step in that all-important right direction on the road of life.

GET-WELL WISHES Cheery get-well wishes to Clarence Young, who is recuperating in St. Luke's Presbyterian Hospital following serious heart surgery last week. On last word, Clar is doing very well, and we hope to see his smiling face and sunny disposition back with us soon. In the meantime, he would enjoy hearing from his many friends and neighbors to make his stay seem nuch shorter. WINTER CARNIVAL Although they drove through mist, rain, fog, sleet and then snow for twelve hours, the Karafas, ^oyce, Wally and Troy of Hickory street, and Wally's sister and her husband, Jean and Frank Vicha, finally arrived at their destination, a lovely motel in Houghton, Mich., on Thursday, Feb. 1, and it was here they stayed until Sunday, Feb. 4, enjoying the famous winter carnival sponsored by Michigan Technoligical University. Their son, Guy, is a student at Michigan Tech and the winter carnival has become so popular people from many miles around drive to this winter wonderland to view the beautiful snow sculptures and witness all the competitive events. The main theme for this year's carnival was entitled "Frigid Fairy Tales" and there were approximately twenty- five beautiful snow sculptures here and there throughout the campus depicting a certain fairy tale in detail. Among them were Humpty-Dumpty; Little Miss Muffet; Jack and Jill; Mary Had A Little Lamb; Captain Hook; The Three Little Pigs, Rumpelstiltskin; Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf; Udder Disaster, which was the cow jumping over the moon; and Goldilocks and the Three Bears. There was also a beautiful life-like snow statue of President Nixon. Guy's dormitory, Douglas Houghton Hall, won first place for their snow sculpture of Goldilocks and the bears and their scene was done in detail even to the beds and bowls of soup with spoons on the table. It took over a million pounds of snow to make the display and approximately 84,000 gallons of water was poured over the complete scene to "ice" it. It was estimated that 2,500 man hours of labor were needed to complete the display and it was really something to see. Besides the snow sculpturing contest, a lovely snow queen was crowned and many competitive events took place between the various dor­ mitories. Trophies were given out for events in Skits; Skiing; A Beard Growing Contest; Figure Skating; Snow Shoe Races; Ice Skating Races; two hockey games were played against the University of Wisconsin and Michigan Tech won both; and Broom Ball, which is like hockey but played with tennis shoes on the ice and hitting a volley ball with a broom. Guy's dorm also won first place in the "all events" and was awarded four trophies. At present there are 100 in­ ches of snow on the ground in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and they are about 50 inches below normal for this time of the year. Although the weather is usually extremely cold, it was beautiful and in the twenties for the entire time the Karafas were there. With all the ice and snow, The Bible Speaks Virgje L Chappell, Pastor First Baptist Church, McHenry i WHEN JESUS PRAYED ' Jesus Christ, as He entered into history at Bethlehem, was God incarnate. He was not some lesser God. He was not a creation of God. The Bible teaches that Jesus was the Christ, the manifestation of God in human form. (John 1:14, Philippians 2:7,1 Timothy 3:16, Colossians 1:19...) Because Jesus was both human and divine there was much about his being which we have dif­ ficulty in understanding. For example, it is difficult to know why, if Jesus was totally God, that he would find it necessary to pray. Yet he did. Though he in­ dicated on one occasion that his prayer was for the benefit of those around him (John 11:42), yet Jesus made it a point to pray often. Those recorded experiences of Jesus' prayers are beautiful ex­ periences. Jesus prayed at his baptism. He had come to John the Baptist to be baptized of him. It was at this point that Jesus was openly identified as being the Savior of the world. On this occasion Jesus portrayed his perfect submission to the Father's will as he presented himself to John at the Jordan. At this time, Jesus prayed (Luke 3:21). Heaven responded as a dove descended upon Jesus and a voice from heaven identified his as God's beloved Son. Jesus prayed before making important decisions. Upon the mountain, before he selected the twelve, he "continued all night in prayer to God." (Luke 6:12) The selection of followers was im­ portant enough to pray all night before calling them out. On several occasions, the crowds which followed Jesus wished to forceably make him a king. Jesus departed from them "into a mountain himself alone" to pray. (John 6:15). Whether he prayed for himself or for the people is not indicated. Jesus, James and John and Peter had gone apart from the others upon a mountain. Jesus went a little farther than the three and began to pray. "And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering." (Luke 9:29). Moses and Elijah appeared in glory before him. Jesus prayed for all mankind as he anticipated his death on the cross (John 17). Before the agony of the cross, he entered Gethsemaneand prayed,".. if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt." (Matt. 26:39). Perhaps his most beautiful prayer was uttered from the cross, "Father forgive them; for they know not what they do." (Luke 23:34). Jesus said that we also should always pray (Luke 18:1). The Apostle Paul admonished us to "Pray without ceasing." (I Thessalonians 5:17). James asserts, "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." (James 5:16). i THINK ABOUT IT! j By BOB JUSTEN Winston Churchill said, "Nothing is more costly, no­ thing is more sterile, than vengeance." Lets look at his words in connection with George Washington. Washington faced wide dissension, was even ridiculed and contemptuously criticized during his dark hours at Valley Forge. His patriotic dedication and unfailing for­ titude enabled him to endure those trying days. In what was perhaps a moment of resentment, he wrote Congress, "I can assure those gentlemen, that it is easier and less distressing thing to draw remonstrances in a comfortable room by a good fireside, than to occupy a cold, bleak hill, and sleep under frost and snow, without clothes or blan­ kets. However, although they seem to have little feeling for the naked and'distressed soldiers, I feel superabun­ dantly for them, and, from my soul, Ipity those miseries, which it is neither in my power to relieve or prevent." When at last, victory was his, he extended his hand and heart in friendship to his critics and antagonists. He held no grudge. His lack of vengeance certainly helped him become our first President-by unanimous vote. Washington's birthday should remind us vengeance is NOT an American heritage...GEORGE R.

Phone 385-2400. spring certainly seemed a 1 way off, but the Karafas brought fishing gear and golf clubs up to their son and before you know it, he'll be walking the university golf course or casting one of their popular trout streams and writing home about his prize catch. The scenery is breath-taking this time of year in the far north and the entire Karafa family enjoyed every moment of their stay and already are talking about returning next year to partake in the wonderful and exciting winter carnival at Michigan Tech! A TICKET- TO PARADISE After all the holiday gifts were opened at the Grfegg house, Katie was rather bewildered as there was no package for her, but looking toward the top of their Christmas tree she discovered an envelope and upon opening it received a very pleasant surprise her gift from Don was a trip to Hawaii! It took several weeks to get everything in order and baby­ sitters arranged, but finally Katie and Don boarded a jet and started out on a fabulous week's vacation landing at Hilo, Hawaii, which is the largest of the Hawaiian Islands. They rented a small car while there and drove completely around the entire island en­ joying every point of interest there was to be seen. Their visit to the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park will long be remembered. They walked two and a half miles to the edge of the volcano which is active and still erupting and the sight was one to behold. The terrain is quite mountainous over all the island and the gold and red poinsettias grow wild, are very colorful as are the hibiscus which is the state flower. Orchids are also plentiful so it's no wonder our fiftieth state is called the "land of the flowers." Half of the island is very green and fertile and the other side is very desolate and barren from the hot lava of volcano eruptions. A visit to an authentic fishing village was enjoyed. The people are pure-bred Hawaiians and speak their own language. Katie's attempt to learn the "hula" proved futile however as she said when they said "right" she went "left" but it' was a delightful experience. They wandered through the huge sugar cane fields and also the Kona coffee factory tour where they viewed the many small trees that bear the coffee bean. Their drive took them past many ranches which are typical of ours in our western states but it seemed strange seeing Hawaiians in cowboy outfits. The Hawaiian people are very religious and every village has a church, some honoring the old-fashioned Gods from Tahiti and others the Christian Gods. The churches are filled with brilliantly painted pic­ tures and are breathtaking. They also stopped at the "City of Refuge" where there is no standard religion but as custom has it, one can go and be purified by the priests. They visited the place where Captain Cook who discovered the Hawaiian Islands in the 1600's had the first Christian service. Their trip was made even more pleasant as Katie and Don became acquainted with a very interesting teacher from the University of San Francisco and her son and they toured the Island together. The Hawaiian people are full of love and friendship and at the end of a fantastic week as they bid "aloha" to our fiftieth state, Katie will never forget the year she found her "ticket to paradise" hanging under the star of her Christmas tree! CONDOLENCES Sincere sympathy is ex­ tended to the family of Marge and Harvey Beth of Holiday Drive. Harvey's brother-in-law, Henry F. Hartmann, of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., passed away on Feb. 10 at the age of 77. Marge and Harvey flew to Fort Lauder­ dale last Sunday to bring comfort to the family, and will be home at this printing.
