Christmas Of Our Times Mone 5) PEACE ON EARTH NEW YORK (ED)-—If you're looking for a perceptive mirror of our time, you'll find it in Christmas cards this year. American artists from every section of the country have created contemporary masterpieces that express the ancient holiday spirit while depicting our very modern way of life. With more than 50% of our population under 27, “youth” is the byword of our time. For some of them today’s world is a “mod, mod” place, and Ivan Chermayoff. captures that gay, swinging mood with his lively brush and palette. His whimsical Santa card is perfect for everyone who loves mini-skirts and pop art. Christmas has always been a holiday for the young, beloved by children of all ages for its gifts and goodies. In Jane Miller’s charming scene, two modern youngsters help nae to a traditional treat of candy canes. The growing interest in travel in the U.S. to see the many faces of our country is expressed by the theme of “Christmas Coast to Coast” in the American Artists Group 1968 ‘collection. Scenes range from Jack Garver’s watercolor of the historic Spanish missions at Rancho de Taos, New Mexico, to Thomas Naegele’s view of the contemporary urban scene—city folk bicycling in Néw York’s famed Central Park on a frosty afternoon. Even the radiant beauty of the traditional portrait of Madonna and Child is brought into new focus in the modern-day colors of Dean Ellis, an artist born in Michigan on Christmas day. Nothing, of course, is more contemporary than the ageless message of Peace on Earth. Tom Morrow voices mankind’s yearning for peace with an American Artists Group card showing representatives of many religions joined in one procession of brotherhood. Expressing their personal viewpoints, these artists have reinterpreted the beloved motifs of the holiday season— making it possible to wish family and friends “Merry Christmas” in a more beautiful, more meaningful-way. .

Thus thetfuse of nuclear energy by”conservationists ‘is increasing, and through radionuclide tagging’ of particular ecology systems it is becoming possible to unravel the movements of the animal kingdom. The need for knowledge of the ecology of forested areas is becoming increasingly evident as man intensifies his use of forested lands for wood products, watersheds, wildlife habitat, and recreation. Parallel needs for knowledge of the ecological effects of insecticides and pesticides aie also obvious following the widespread use and misuse of these chemicals. Many scientists have voiced concern over the use of insecticides preceding knowledge of the total effects of the substances on the environment, especially upon the species for which the control is being sought. The use of radionuclidelabeled insecticides, such as malathion and DDT, allows the detection of the pesticide more readily than chemical techniques. As use of pesticides increase, redistribution of the substances becomes critical, QHio State University, which is studying radionuclide tracer techniques for evaluating the effects of these chemicals on the ecology ot marsh wildlife for the Atomic Energy Commission, has The eighth annual northern California fire services safety seminar will be presented December 6 at Freeborn Hall, University of California at Davis, in co-operation. with the governor's industrial safety conference.
