The Christmas Candle
Every Christmas season countless Christmas trees, Santa, holly wreaths and other decorations remind us of the Christmas season and spirit. But of all the signs of Christmas that abound each December, perhaps none express the real meaning of the yuletide more completely than the Christmas candle.
Martin Luther originated the candle as a Christmas decoration. The candle has shed its light on every Christmas since that time, all over the world. Its steady flame has been the sign of peace, hope, and good-will that makes the Christmas spirit. But the message that Luther symbolized has since been forgotten.
On Dec. 25, 1939, candles were shining in the same Germany where they originated, but Hitler had flung the world into another war. In December of 1945, the war was over and hope ran high that the peace and good-will symbolized by the Christmas candle would finally be heeded. But now, in December of 1949, we find the East split against the West, in the midst of a heated "cold" war. The ideals illuminated by the Christmas candle don't seem to be coming much closer to a universal realization than in the past.
But still the Christmas candle is burning across the world. Its light beacons a message of peace and good will through the darkness of world affairs, and as the candle continues to burn, we can only wonder how many yuletide seasons must pass before we realize the peace and security expressed by the Christmas candle.

Graduate Student Wins First Prize In Aeronautical Literary Contest
Kansas is in for some world-wide publicity.
Marcella Stewart, graduate student in journalism, has been awarded first prize in the 1949 annual Aeronautical Literary contest for her article on "Kansas Educates for the Air Age."
The contest is sponsored by the Women's International Association of Aeronautics, Inc., and is open to all nations.
Because of her classes at the University Miss Stewart was unable to attend the presentation ceremonies held Dec. 3, in Santa Monica, Calif. The first prize, the Olive Ann Beech award, is an onyx pen set with a miniature gold airplane mounted on the base.
Miss Stewart is from Winfield. She was graduated from the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information in 1947. During her senior year she was managing editor of the University Daily Kansan. Following her graduation Miss Stewart worked as an assistant editor of Glamour magazine in New York. She later edited the magazine of the Wichita zone Chevrolet dealers. She then joined the Beech Aircraft corporation public relations department, where she held editorships on employee and sales publications.
Membership in the Women's International Association of Aeronautics, covers England, Peru, Venezuela, East Africa, Panama, Australia, Hungary, Fiji, France and New Zealand.
Mrs. Ulysses Grant McQueen, founder and honorary president, has done much in the past two decades to establish the place of women in aviation. One of the first projects undertaken by Mrs. McQueen and her association of women flyers was to promote the "Powder Puff Derby," named by Will Rogers, as a part of the Cleveland national air races.
The president of the association is Mrs. Olive Ann Beech of Beech Aircraft corporation, Wichita. She succeeded film actress Mary Pickford.

Sewing Cabinet Used In Wife's Double Ire
Omaha— (U.P.) —William Townsend. 53, adopted the attitude that you can't win after his wife got in the last two blows in an argument. The final blow was a complaint filed with police, accusing him of attempting to choke her. But the one that hurt the worst was the first blow, when Mrs. Townsend got him on the head with a sewing machine cabinet.

'Inclusive Architecture' Will Make Homes More Livable, Beal Says
American people, who spend 80 per cent of their time indoors will benefit from "inclusive architecture" if their homes and other buildings are designed by University of Kansas architectural grants.
That is the opinion of Prof. George M. Beal, chairman of the architecture department.
Homes and business buildings designed by K.U. graduates will incorporate the three fine arts—painting, sculpture, and architecture—into a finished whole that is esthetically satisfying and livable.
"Architecture has great emotional, cultural, and psychological importance," said Professor Beal. "We hope to teach our architects the basic idea of inclusive architecture—the combination building is developed around the satisfaction of human needs, physical, intellectual, and emotional."
"To give our students a closer relationship with all aspects of inclusive architecture, we have on our staff men who are specialists in the various fields of architecture," Professor Beal said. "Prof. Gerald Davis is our painter; Prof. Jordan Johnson is our landscape artist; and Prof. Alton C. Thomas, and Prof. Thomas Schocken, is our city planner."
The Industrial revolution of the early 19th century and the development of a great many new building
methods and materials have created many new problems which need to be given a comprehensive human interpretation. The idea of inclusive architecture is especially needed during the present stage of contemporary architectural development.
Modern buildings utilize large quantities of glass, giving them an unconfined, pleasing effect. The shape of modern buildings usually express the form of activity that goes on within them.
"In any period of high architectural achievement there is a close association of the major arts." Professor Beal said. "The Gothic, the Egyptian, and the Classic Greek periods are good examples of this integration of the arts."
"We think that architecture does just about everything for humanity," Professor Beal said. "If it weren't for architecture we'd all be out in the cold," he quipped.
Playwright Eugene O'Neill has received the Pulitzer prize three times.
