Town of Barnstable
Cape Cod
December 22, 1949
Dear Tbeodosta:
With Christmas just around the
corner, I want to tell you a story
I have heard about the Lost Yule-
tide Ship. With Cape Cod blood
In your veins, you love the sea and
ships same as I do.
It seems that many years ago, a
steamship was proceeding south
from Alaska off North America's
western coast when It found itself
enshrouded In a dense snowstorm.
With dangerous reefs 'ahead, the
captain swung his ship Into an ob-
scure harbor, amidst the mountain-
ous wilds of the coast of British
Columbia. The ship could no
longer send or receive radio mes-
sages, because it was In a dead
spot , shut in by mountainous
ledges . No communication could be
bad with stations either on land
or on ships at sea.
Christmas Eve came and, al-
though the ship -was shut in, it was
In a safe and snug harbor, and so
the captain decided to have a real
Christmas celebration.
They had a big tree on board,
which they took and fixed up with
ornaments , then lighted it. They
put evergreens around on the walls,
and candles on the tables. A very
bountiful Christmas dinner was
served, including turkey; and after
dinner, the passengers all gathered
in the Social Hall for an entertain-
ment, In which various members
of passengers and crew used their
talents in singing, playing on dif-
ferent instruments, and impromptu
acting, The captain played the
piano and all hands joined in sing-
ing "Adeste Fldeles."
After being In this hideout for
three days and three nights, In
utter seclusion from the world ,
Christmas morning dawned bright
and clear, and the ship emerged
into the open and continued upon
itB way. Knowing they were safe,
the passengers hadn't been at all
worried about either seclusion or
delay. They were, therefore, sur-
prised when they heard what a
commotion their apparent disap-
pearance had made in the outside
world.
The newspapers bad carried
headlines to the effect that the
steamer was "mysteriously lost."
Considering that no radio messages
had been received, it was natural
for the world to think disaster had
overtaken ship and passengers.
They were two days overdue at
Seattle and friends and relatives
of those aboard were besieging the
Steamship Company with tele-
phone, telegraph and verbal inqui-
ries about the supposedly wrecked
vessel.
As the story went out, public in-
terest in the ship mounted, while
those who were "lost" made a re-
advent into the world.
isn't that an unusual kind ot
Christmas story ?
Sea stories can be strange. I
read this one in the "Lookout,"
published by the Seamen's Church
Institute in New York.

A Letter From Aunt Jane
To Her City Relations
bj Clara ). Hallett
This is your local station, 213 Ocean, No K.
A vast number of people are thinking, talking and writih
about Christmas. It's Merry Christmas here, and everywher
you go the very air seems to be full of the Christmas spirit *
How grant it would be If by just
saying and wishing a Merry Christ-
mas to everyone you can sea and
know it could come to pass. We
know, however, that everyone can-
not have a Merry Christmas or
even a happy one, so many obsta-
cles and unforeseen events that are
beyond our control, can and may In-
terfere; but each one of us can do
something to make a bit ot sun-
shine brighten the little circle
wherein we move. It takes so little
to change a frown into a smile.
All the churches are having spe-
cial music, cantatas, sacred dramas
and extra services, both spiritual
and earthly, to give material aid
and comfort to people of all ages.
Keeping In mind by this great cel-
ebration the spiritual gifts as well
as the material ones that the birth
and life of our Saviour brought to
the world.
We, the people of Cape Cod,
have many blessings denied to
those who dwell in other parts of
the world. We have no strikes to
shut off our lights and plunge us
into darkness as they have recent-
ly had In London. The people of
England prayed all through the
wars when they had those awful
blackouts and air raids—prayed
for the time when the lights would
go on again all over the world—
and the White Cliffs of Dover
would gleam again in the sunshine
—and for a white Christmas and
peace.
It seems ironic that no real
peace has yet come to the world
and that under a labor govern-
ment that was to cure all evils
they should now have to meet so
many unhappy situations.
London fog must be hard to con-
tend with—bumping into one an-
other and groping around in mist
and rain.
We have no water shortage as
they have In New York, What we
may have in future years if Cape
Cod becomes more thickly settled
every year and all the people want
to live almost In water either salt
or fresh or both, while every spear
of grass must have its daily and
nightly sprinkle, is unpredictable.
We may have to pay a penalty tor
inducing people to rush to the Cape
and settle here but we do not ex-
pect it. We have no great waves of
sickness here, our climate suits us,
we like to have it changeable—It
keeps us guessing—Yankee s like
to guess.
You might think.we were expect-
ing all sorts of troubles and that
half of the people would be In hos-
pitals most of the time by the num-
ber of large ones that are being
built everywhere. It Is rather sad
to think with all the remedies ad-
vertised In papers and broadcast
over the air and all kinds of doc-
tors, surgeons and quick cure-alls
we still have so many sick people
In the world—so many in other in-
stitutions for the helpless and for-
lorn. Somebody said: "Why, there
are so many people born every
day." Yes, of course, but think ot
the people who die every day.
We realize, or ought to by this
time that accidents fill the world
with woe, lor every paper Is on the
lookout for them to make headlines
and broadcasters repeat them over
and over again. Accidents and
wounded men and thousands who
suffer from our World Wars are
the one chief reasons for more and
larger hospitals.
We have our troubles on Cape
Cod of course but just now we are
trying to make this Christmas the
best one we ever had here.
When we walk or ride through
our Main Street at night with Its
arches of colored lights, its stores
and public buildings decorated
with greens and all kinds of at-
tractive gifts on display in the
windows, houses also on many
streets with Christmas trees aglow,
with candles burning in the win-
dows as if to greet you, we look
back to the days when our street
were dark, no pretty bulbs cou !
be used for decorations anywh«r«
then, sometimes we put lighted
candles In the windows and stayed
home to watch that no curtain
caught Are. Ot course there w,,
not much to see if we did g0 J?
Only a few people had trees u
some ot our old residents should
see these things that we take for
granted—they have become Z
common now—they would be ailed
with awe, as If a mlraple had com»
to pass. And It has.
e
I do not recall that we ever had
a tree at home. We had only a tew
stores and they dealt in necessity
not tinsel and toys. Our parents
were not tempted to spend money
they needed to support their taJ
lies tor toyB and sweetmeats unieB8
'
they could be made at home w»
seldom had any, but after all t
thought more ot my old painted rat
doll named Dinah than any fan
I ever had. Wl
Dinah went to bed with me even
night while the wax doll who»
eyes would open and shut, with lu
pink cheeks and yellow curls, |
n
a pretty dress, was put away in»
box at night.
The more we have the more we
want. Our horizon seems to expand
with the times. Santa Claus has
also raised a large family of little
Santas since those days, They no
longer climb down chimneys or
drive reindeers but fly down ap-
parently from heaven and may
greet you anytime, day or night
but it wouldn't be Christmas to the
children if he didn't appear.
The stockings hanging on the
mantel are what I remember best
about Santa Claus, the early morn-
ing trip downstairs to see what he
had brought. I hung up a long blue
stocking ot my father's—no bobby
BOX then, thank fortune. If it
looked big and bulgy, oh joy, no
matter what was in it we were so
happy. That Is all that really
counts—"Is everybody happy."
A (rlend wrote—"When did we
begin to have and send Christmas
cards?" I have never thought about
that. I know we started with post-
cards first , with verses on them
like . . . "When you dance around
the tree will you then remember
me," etc. Some had pretty decora-
tions on them but soon better ones
came out more like the Christmas
cards we have today. As early as
1900 they began to be more elabo-
rate with greetings and sentimen-
tal verses. The comics set off a
train of funny cards like funny
valentines. We now have cards for
every occasion from birth to death
and after, all kinds of anniversaries
and events call for cards ot joy or
sorrow or congratulations, what will
ever take their place is anybody's
guess.
It will soon be 1950 and time for
a Happy New Year to All . , , but
just now it's Merry Christmas we
must still enjoy before we bid the
old year goodbye.
Be methodical It you would suc-
ceed In business, or In anything.
Have a work for every moment,
and mind the moment's work,
—W. Mathen. '

OSTERVILLE NEWS
A Christmas Editorial
Every editor in the United States has, no doubt , been pon-
dering his Christmas editorial. He wants his words to come
from deep down, to be filled with the inspiration of Christmas,
to be such as to call up memories, to give hope of peace, to lend
a sense of well-being; to induce impulses and acts of generosity
and kindliness,—in other words, to be Christmas-like in thought
and content.
The Patriot editor has been searching for an unusual source
upon which to base a Christmas message, and has found one in
a seemingly strange place—Congress. Attracted by the title in
an issue of the Congressional Record last October, she read the
article, and it so impressed her that she tucked it away in the
editorial file, thinking to share its contents with her readers,
when a suitable time presented itself.
Rev. James P. Wesberry, pastor of a Baptist Church in
Atlanta, Georgia, served as acting chaplain of the House of
Representatives during the past summer while the chaplain was
on vacation.
Dr. Wesberry later preached a sermon in Atlanta , which
was reproduced in the Congressional Record, bearing the title
given a few lines below.
Amid the gala aspects of Christmas—the exchange of gifts
and cards, the feasts, the visiting—only a few forget that all the
celebration stems from the fact that on this day the Christ Child
was born and that the first gifts were to Him offered by the
Magi. Our churches are usually well attended on Christmas
Sunday, and the spirit of worship pervades those who come
thus to pay homage.
Because Christ is the center of Christmas, the Christmas
feeling~is best engendered by thought and story of Him. We
shall, therefore , quote and comment from Dr. Wesberry 's
sermon:
"I Saw Christ In Congress"
Dr. Wesberry spoke of the many people who seem to get
pleasure from criticizing our National Government, saying that
it grieves him no little to hear the light remarks that almost
everybody makes about it. While a great deal of this criticism is
justifiable , Dr. Wesberry says, "There never has been and never
will be a government on earth that does-not have some corrup-
tion." We could not expect all 435 members of the House to be
saints, continued Dr. Wesberry, who stated that neither had he j
ever known a church in which all the members were perfect , nor
any other organization. Because a few are corrupt is no reason
to consider that our whole Government is corrupt , said he.
"But I saw Christ in Congress. I was looking for Him. I
saw Him in the radiant faces. I heard Him speak through some
of the fine Christian members of the House. I heard many of them
express a desire for divine guidance. I felt His presence in fel-
lowship with some of the most consecrated Christians I have
ever known."
One young Congressman, Dr. Wesberry found, is one of
the outstanding Christians in our National Capital. When he
first went to this young Congressman's office, he found him
wearing on the lapel of his coat a small gold cross. Dr. Wesberry
found in Congress many preachers' sons. He heard the Bible
quoted a great number of times in the speeches and discussions
on the floor of the House. He attended one of the Congressional
prayer meetings, when a very large group of members gathered
at breakfast in the Vandenberg Room. A member of the House
brought a deeply spiritual message, before presenting a minister,
who inspired all who were there. On one such occasion, a Con-
gressman preached the sermon. He heard them sing, in closing
the breakfast meeting, "God Be With You Til We Meet Again."
- - - "There are few, if any, ordinary people in Congress.
Most of them are far above the average. — What a comfort it
is to know that there is such a godly nucleus of men and women
in our National Government. Our Nation has not forgotten
God. - - - I do not believe that any country which has openly
denounced God, even though it has the atomic secret, can tri-
umph over us. - - -
"Let us be more deeply concerned for the righteousness of
our Nation. If we are to see more of Christ in government, there
must be more of Christ in us. -- -
"Christ in Congress? Yes, Christ in Congress. I saw Him
with my own eyes. I felt His presence there. I know Him when
I see Him and I recognized Him there."
Is this not an encouraging thought for our own Christmas
Day, as we worship the Christ Child, who was born this Day?
It makes us feel that we have already a foundation on which we
must assiduously try to build a more Godly, Christian, and
righteous Nation.
And it presents our Congress in an entirely new light.
