- Ukrainian Woman - Tetiana Shevchuk CHRISTMAS EVE Some Convention Thoughts On Christm as Eve, When sky’s ablaze w ith stars, And E arth asleep beneath the snow, And hoary frost Like fragile white flow’rs Enshrouds the trees, with branches bending low — Enchanted I stand here under the trees. It seems I can hear the singing of the spheres. Perhaps the old dram a Of universal scope Is being re enacted here, in w intry bowers . . . And the song of love and peace and hope Is being proclaimed by heavenly choirs. Perhaps, humble people of m ountain and glen Can hear this song, and find Him again, As they did then. Perhaps, some wise men of our own today Will search for the bright, prophetic star, And follow it w ithout delay, Before we stray too far. GREETINGS AND CONGRATULATIONS I. My sincere congratulations on the 40th Jubilee anniversary of UNWLA. May God bless your work so beneficial to our church, people and country. Na mnohaya і blahaya lita. t Joseph M. Schmondiuk, Bishop of Stam ford Roma, Nov. 25, 1965. II. My very best wishes to you and congratulations to Mrs. Hel en Lototsky and all members of your organization on the occa sion of your 40th Anniversary. Robert F. W agner, Mayor New York, Nov. 27, 1965 The English Session which was held on November 27, 1965, gave rise to a num ber of new and stim ulating ideas. Many of these were voiced in Mrs. K ath erine Sharabura’s interesting talk on “Some American miscon ceptions about Ukraine.” Others were brought up by our members in the course of the discussion which followed. The first and prim ary request of the American-born member ship was the need for more lec tures, bulletins, and m aterials in the English language. This is understandable. If we are to par ticipate fully in the work of the UNWLA and gear our program s accordingly, then it becomes es sential th a t we understand the basic concepts of the UNWLA. As many of us find it difficult to correspond in the Ukrainian language, and since the acquir ing of this knowledge requires time, the need for English-lan guage m aterial is m ost urgent. The second m atter concerns the program . How can we make it attractive enough to bring in new members and rekindle the interest of members already in the organization? Much of the answer lies in the well-planned and interesting work which is already being done in m any of our Branches. Let us only look at the work of Branch 37 in D etroit, Branch 60 in Cleveland, 72 in New York, and 85 in Car teret. Their successful program s have developed largely on the basis of their bany and varied activities. Consequently, they have attracted new members, while m aintaining the interest of members already in the or ganization. Let us recall some of the reso lutions which were adopted at the Convention. One of these de fined the need for people who could translate into English va rious valuable lectures which m ight be of interest to the American-born membership. Ad m ittedly, the searching and translation of a vast bulk of m a terial would take tim e and some effort, but it can and should be done. Every English speaking Branch has bi-lingual members who could very successfully do this type of work. It would cer tainly be w orth the effort and the aid which it would render our American-born m em bership would indeed be invaluable. O U R B E S T W I S H E S FO R A i M e r r y C h r i s t m a s !
