WMMA /VOWKC WORDS FOR A WAY OF LZFS . . When yon educate a man, you educate an individual; When yon educate a woman, you educate a /amity’’. —Anonymous THE WAY TO SAY IT ... Normally 1 would say and L I do say “Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year” to 1 you, my secret loves, who read “On the Town”. But | just in case 1 have some “secret loves” who would un- I derstand it better said another way, let me say Feliz I Navidatf, Buon Natale, Joyeux Noel, Frohliche Weih- I nachten, Gezellige Kerstmis, Geidelig Jul and, to my ft Hawaiian friends, Mele Kalikimaka! In case there are I some who say it still another way — write me a note and I let me know what 1 should have said! . . . THE INTERNATIONAL SET . . . Borough President " Edward Dudley and his adorable Missus, Rae, jetted ~ away from it all and spent a few days in Trinidad. Af­ ter some of those all-night-sessions of hearings of the Board of Estimate—Heavens, how he must have need­ ed it! .. . Estelle Mourning still telling folks about the “time of your life” she and her Floyd (Dr. to you) had in Nas­ sau, BWI . . . Louise Parker, the girl “with the velvety voice with a wide range” home from two months of con- certizing in Europe where she was triumphal! .. . ’Twas a delightful experience sharing some of my d personal friends with some of our international visitors I of South America last week who were Miss Diva Gut- I ierrez of Colombia: Mrs. Celia Osun de Hernandez of I Mexico and Mrs. Yolanda Tognozzi Munhoz of Brazil. I The ladies are here under the auspicies of Jhe Methodist I Office for the United Nations on what is called “world I understanding teams”. One of the ladies said that her I family had sent her a letter to come home because they I missed her so much. Her. Spanishrto-English transla- I tion was: “World Fixer, come home”. Well, I tell you, she is really a “world fixer”. I I am sure no one who ever met these three in the U.S.A., I thanks to the Methodist Church, will ever again forget I our neighbors South of the Border. And for those I Protestant’s like me, who thought all of South America I was Catholic, you are mistaken. There are lots of us I Protestants there and Jews, too. Sharing the evening and telling the ladies a little I about our“American fixing” (and believe me we need I a lot of fixing, in a lot of ways, in a lot of places!) were I THE CHRISTENING DAY - Proud mama and papa. left.
