Chriotma6



Of all the greetings man ex-
tends to others, the warmest and
most meaningful, I think, are those
expressed at Christmas. Each
greeting, regardless of the tongue
or the sequence of words in the
salutation, holds the same hope
for all of us: "On earth peace,
good will toward men." Even the
very plain, unadorned "Merry
Christmas" with which we greet
friends and acquaintances holds
a deeper interpretation in that we
wish not only merriment and hap-
piness during Christmastide, but
the peace of God throughout the
entire year. It is this wish that I
extend to all of you, Lago em-
ployees and our friends in the
community, and your families.
May your Christmas be joyous,
and may God's gifts be bountiful
throughout the year.
W. A. Murray

Chemical Complex


Ceremonies Mark Start


ORT CO., LTD


Of Barcadera Industries
Ground was broken Sunday afternoon, Dec. 10, with ceremonies both
impressive and dramatic that marked the beginning of construction of
the Barcadera chemical complex. Following speeches by government
and industry leaders, Lt. Gov. F. J. C. Beaujon and deputies of Aruba
operated air hammers which dug into the coral that will be the found-


ation for the Antilles Chemical Com-
pany and the Aruba Chemical Indus-
tries. Moments after the deputies'
participation, Minister of Finance .1.
E. Irausquin detonated a charge of
dynamite on the shore of the lagoon
where an industrial harbor will be
constructed to cater to the shipping
needs of the industries.
Before the literal ground breaking,
Mr. Irausquin told the people of
Aruba who had gathered for the
ceremonies that "Aruba had no re-
sources and no markets to offer in-
vestors, but did have law and order,
peace and a stable government." He
felt that Aruba's foreign friends had
confidence in the island government
and the people, "but we must learn
to understand each other." The min-
ister of finance emphasized the fact
that "nothing can be achieved with-
out cooperation, good will and un-
derstanding."
Industry Needed
Minister President E. Jonckhecr
expressed the opinion that "needed
are industry, investors and tourists
in order to maintain Aruba's high
standard of living." Lt. Gov. Beaujon
spoke of his pride in being Aruban,
and the faith that Arubans and
others have in the future of Aruba.
Speaking for industry, J. J. Way-
bright, president of the Antilles
Chemical Company, told of the need

food that the world's growing popu-
lation demands. He felt it befitting
Aruba that this island, which has
one of the highest standards of liv-
ing in the Caribbean, should be con-
structing a fertilizer complex which
will help improve the standards of
living of others.
Mr. Waybright stated that the
first markets Aruba fertilizers would
enter would be in Latin America and
the Caribbean. This area constitutes
a fast-growing market which im-
ports fertilizer materials in excess of
$100,000,000 annually. It is also hoped
that Aruba fertilizer will find outlets
as distant as the Far East.
Netherlands Antilles Gov. C. Wm-
kel and Deputies 0. S. Henriquez and
F. Wernet also addressed the
audience.

Cat Cracker Once

Again To Become

Giant Yule Tree
Monday night, Dec. 18, an obser-
vant seaman who is new to these
waters will have an experience he
will long remember. He will more
than likely be at the helm, his eyes
searching the horizon, when he'll spot
a giant revolving star As his vessel
moves closer to Aruba, the horizon
will drop slowly to reveal a colossal
.Christmas tree supporting the mam-
moth star.
He'll see that this unusual creation
soars more than 200 feet into the
dark Caribbean sky, a symbol of
Christmas with a colorful, vibrant
message of peace and good will to
all men
When the newcomer enters the
harbor he will quickly note that the
"tree" is Lago's towering cat crack-
er varied colored lights strung
from its topmost girder giving it the
illusion of a giant Christmas tree
The lights will shine and the star
will revolve every evening from Dec.
18 until Jan 7 For one hour, the
evening of Jan. 4, the star will be
stopped facing the Lago Post Office
so that camera fans can capture a
most unusual Christmas view. The
star will stop at 7 pm. Photograph-
ers using Kodachrome film may wish
to set their lens openings at f. 6.3
and bracket a four-second exposure

Family Calendar Pictures

Again Taken by Employees
The format of Lago's 1962 employee family calendar will feature
twelve multi-colored pictures of Aruba as recorded on film by Lago
employees, all winners of the Public Relations Department's calendar
contest held earlier this year. The attractive calendar, keyed to colorful
signs of the Zodiac executed in bold, modern designs, will be distributed


soon to every Lago employee and
annuitant
This year's calendar marks a re-
tuin to the popular format of using
employee-taken colored transparen-
cies above the days of the month.
Also displayed with each month's
color picture is the sign of the Zodiac
for that particular period
The calendar is the twelfth pub-
lished by Lago using photographs of
Aruba scenes taken by amateur
photograph s. Last year's calendar
was the first in many years that used
world-wide pictorials as illustrations
The Public Relations Department
has sets of calendar pictures which
employees may choose to have sent
to their children currently enrolled
in school in either the United States
or Europe These are not calendars
but sets which students may display
in their rooms or use for lively dis-
cussions of the various beauties of
the island Parents need only send
the student's address to the Public
Relations Department or telephone
3605 and it will handle the mailing.

Depicts Creche

Built by Employee
The impressive, colorful creche re-
produced on the cover of this Christ-
mas issue of the Aruba Esso News is
the work of Simon Croes, gardener in
General Services-Operations Division.
Using only colored paper, aluminum
foil and colorful plants, Mr. Croes
created the Nativity scene during a
pie-holiday vacation last year. The
entn e construction is the work of
Mr. Croes except for the wooden
figures
The particular creche illustrate-l
was viewed by many dozens of Mr
Croes's acquaintances during last

reports he is constructing a new one
for this Christmas which may be
viewed at his home at No. 11 Trim-

THE EMPLOYEE with the most ingenious CYI in October was C. L. H.
Marugg, assistant operator in Process-LOF-Edeleanu Plant, who suggested
the installation of an alarm on the control board to indicate when safety
valves have popped. This led to a reduction in oil losses, earned Mr.
Marugg FIs. 200 and was adjudged the CYI-of-the-Month.

Idea Is Named CYI-of-Month
It's the ingenuity of an idea, not the size of the award, that is given
prime consideration when the CYI Committee chooses the CYI-of-the-
Month. Best suggester in October was C. L. H. Marugg, assistant oper-
ator in Process-LOF-Edeleanu Plant, whose suggestion led to a reduc-
tion in oil losses. His idea, to install an alarm on the control board to
indicate when safety valves pop at

product losses to sewers This loss C.*L. NMarugg

C.E. Lade Moves

To CYI Secretary

Position Dec. 11
Lago's executive management has
re-established the position of CYI
secretary on a full-time basis to
promote faster handling of suggest-
ions and so that more personal at-
tention can be devoted to ideas of a
complex nature.
Named CYI secretary in the Dec.
11 move was C. E. Lacle, formerly
in charge of staff and regular em-
ployment and termination matters in
the Industrial Relations Depart-
ment's Employment and Benefits
Division.
The change has permitted M. C.
Jessurun, on personal assignment as
CYI secretary on a part-time basis,
to devote his full attention to in-
creased demands of the Training
Division. Mr. Jessurun, training coor-
dinator and a former Lago Vocational
School instructor, took on the addi-
tional CYI duties in July, 1960.
Mr. Lade has nearly twenty-five
years of Lago service. He joined the
company July 13, 1937, as an ap-
prentice clerk at Lago Hospital. He
advanced to section head following a
series of promotions. Mr. Lade
transferred to the Industrial Rel-
ations Department as an employment
assistant in February, 1949.


Woman's Purse Found
At Lago Hospital
FOUND: A woman's purse,
which contained a sum of money,
was found in the waiting room at
Lago Hospital. The owner of this
purse may claim it at the Admin-
istration Office of Lago Hospital.

World's Great Art Works Inspired

By Story of Christ Child's Birth
The tender story of the birth of the Christ Child at Bethlehem has
been the inspiration for some of the world's greatest art. In the early
years of the Fifteenth Century a saintly youth barely in his twenties
journeyed with a little band of Dominican monks to San Marco
Monastery in Florence which was being restored by the wealthy
Medici family.
Young Fra Guido de Fiesole had shown some promise as a painter
and to him the Father Prior assigned the task of decorating the bare
walls of the old buildings.
For the next fifty years, this holy friar performed his daily "acts
of adoration," creating frescoes at San Marco and elsewhere which
rank with the greatest art of the Italian Renaissance.
For his inspiration, Fra Guido whom later generations would
know as Fra Angelico, "The Angelic Painter" dedicated himself to
the Virgin Mother and the wondrous events concerning the birth of
the Christ Child. Among his best known works are the "Annuncia-
tion" (of the coming Nativity) and the "Coronation of the Virgin."
Nearly a century after young Guido's arrival at San Marco, the
Christmas Story was the inspired choice of another Renaissance
master for his last, and perhaps his greatest painting. T.e artist was
Alessandro di Mariano dei Filippi, whom his contemporaries had
affectionately nicknamed "The Little Barrel," Sandro Botticelli.
At the peak of his career as a celebrated artist, Botticelli became
deeply disturbed by a new pagan influence upon the arts that had
replaced the humanism of Saint Francis. He decided to forsake paint-
ing and spend his remaining years in prayer and contemplation.
For his final effort, Bottocelli chose the Christmas scene. His
"Nativity," an eloquent and elaborate masterpiece, has been called
the zenith of his lifelong efforts to attain spirituality and beauty
in art.
The wonderful story of the virgin birth has inspired artists for
twenty centuries. Each has drawn from Scripture and legend, bor-
rowed from earlier painters and added the customs, tones and tempos

A Joke That Backfired Un Chansa Fracasd


No newspaper writer ever cut up more high jinks and got away with
more practical joking than Eugene Field, the celebrated Chicago, Illi-
nois, columnist. He was always having fun at the expense of his em-
ployer, Melvin E. Stone, for whom he conducted his department "Sharps
and Flats" in the Chicago Daily News.
Once, when Field wanted a raise
in pay, he dressed four of his child-
ren in tattered clothing and went
with them to face the boss in his
6 office.
While the writer meekly bared his
head, the youngsters set up a pitiful
chant about their poor father's need.
Stone knew the act had been care-
fully rehearsed, but he was a good
sport and promptly boosted Field's
salary.
However, he once thought he
j/could get back at his columnist. This
was the Christmas when Field let
Stone know he was not satisfied with
the turkey that each employee usual-
ly got. Field would prefer a new suit
to the turkey. The request gave the
boss an idea.
Came Christmas Eve and a mes-
senger boy handed Field a rectangul-
ar cardboard box. It was beautifully
wrapped and looked as if it had come
from Chicago's finest haberdasher.
But when the writer opened it, he
got a jolt. The box contained a con-
vict's suit, stripes and all.
If Field was disappointed, he never
let on. Very carefully he hung the
suit in his office.
It was Stone who was now due for
a surprise.

Paper Stars Are Easy To Make


You can easily make five-pointed Christ-
mas stars if you follow the directions shown
above by Jessica Hochstuhl, age ten, one of
four daughters of W. C. Hochstuhl of the
Public Relations Department. All it takes
are simple folds of paper and a snip with
the scissors. Any kind of 8'1 by 11 inch
paper will do, but heavy construction paper
of varied colors will give best results. Hang
the stars in windows and from the ceiling.
If you make them from aluminum foil.
which is fire-proof, you can hang your stars
on the Christmas tree. Never hang paper,
ornaments of any kind on your tree!
You can either make plain stars from
varied colored paper sheets or you can use


white typewriter paper and make up your
own designs. Why not smear your finished
stars with paste or transparent glue and
sprinkle with colored sequins or powdered
glass? You can also make decorative stars
by adding designs with colored pencils or
crayons.
Using a sheet of 812 by 11 inch paper or
paper of the same proportions, Jessica first
folds the sheet once through the middle.
Then she brings the upper left corner to the
center of the bottom edge and she folds the
lower left triangle along the diagonal line
Finally, Jessica turns up the right-hand
edge to meet the left-hand edge. She cuts
the triangle at an angle, revealing the star.

Make Decorative Candles for Christmas


Marguerite Brouwer, public relations secretary, de-
monstrates simple methods for making unique, deco-
rative Christmas candles. By following the steps shown
by Miss Brouwer you can easily mold a variety of in-
teresting and charming candles at reasonable costs.
All you need are blocks of household wax or inex-
pensive candles, double boiler for melting the wax and
varied-shaped molds and you can begin the basic steps
of making your own fancy Christmas candles. You can
even substitute bits and pieces of old candles for wax
for the melting pot. Decorative touches require coloring
materials, sequins and scraps of colored ribbon. Child-
ren's wax crayons can be melted with clear wax to mold
colored candles or melted crayon can be brushed on the
finished product. For wicks, dip ordinary household
twine in melted wax and allow to cool.
Miss Brouwer shows you how to apply whipped wax
to ordinary candles to create large, flaky decorative
candles of many shapes. She also demonstrates the simple
methods used to make a colorful snowman.
Precaution must be used when melting wax for mold-
ing. Use a double boiler so that the highly inflammable
wax is kept well removed from direct flame. Don't let
the wax get too hot. Take the vessel of melted wax from
the hot water and let stand until a thin skin has formed
over the top. Then place the vessel back over the hot
water and stir until the skin has melted. The wax
should now be at a suitable molding temperature.
Almost anything can be used for molding. Excellent
and interesting shapes can be molded from glass tumb-
lers, liqueur glasses, toy dishes, bowls, tea cups, cookie
pans and paper containers of various shapes and sizes.
Be sure to grease molds or leave in refrigerator over
night to loosen molded wax.


MARGUERITE BROUWER, public relations secretary, ex-
hibits the tools and materials used to make decorative Christ-
mas candles of various shapes and sizes.

the GOB squad had four goals to its
credit while the Dakota team had
but one goal. The GOB team, with
three wins and no losses, had won
the inter-departmental competition
held from Oct. 4 through Oct. 20.
Dakota became island champion when

through Nov. 30. It, too, went un-
defeated.
The Yard team was runner-up in
the inter-departmental contests. Run-
ner-up squad in the island-wide com-
petition was the Tropical footballers.
These squads also met in a present-
ation match prior to the GOB-
Dakota contest. Winner, by a score
of 3 to 1, was Tropical.
Medals and trophies were presented
to champions and runner-up teams
by Public Relations Manager E. By-
ington at the conclusion of the pres-
entation matches.
Six teams competed in the inter-
departmental tournament. In the
order of games played GOB defeated

big trophy. In the order of games

Riverplate 3 to 1, Tropical edged out
Jong Aruba with a 4 to 3 score,
Dakota whipped the San Nicolas Jun-

CHRISTMAS JOKE
(Continued from page 4)
Not long afterward the "boss" was
taking a party of distinguished visit-
ors on a tour of the big newspaper
plant.
In the midst of their rounds they
came upon Field. He was dressed in
his convict's suit and puttering about
with a coal scuttle and a shovel.
The striped garb stirred one
guest's curiosity so much that he
managed to draw Field off into a
corner where he asked him what he,
a convict, was doing there.
Never batting an eye, the column-
ist confessed that he was a "lifer"
and had been sentenced to serve out
a long term of hard labor with Stone.
The boss never saw the last of
that convict suit. He must have often
regretted his Christmas joke. As sure
as he brought any important guests
into the plant, there would be Field
in his striped garb, shuffing around
with his coal scuttle and shovel,
stirring up no end of pity among his
visitors.

Lago Tug Is Cup


Norwegian

A Lago tug, the Esso San Nicolas,
served as a romantic courier Nov. 24
when it took a Norwegian minister to
a Norwegian ship outside the harbor
so that two lovers on board could be
married under the laws of their
homeland.
The couple, Finn Kristoffersen and
Astrid Jovik, was seiving aboard
the Ranella, a Norwegian-flag tanker,
which was enroute to Curaqao. When
the vessel was diverted to Aruba,
thus thwarting the marriage plans,
a hasty radio message was sent to
Rev B. M. Siem of the Norwegian
Seamen's Church in Curaqao. He
flew to Aruba, and accompanied by
K. T. Aunevik, manager of the Nor-
wegian Seamen's Mission in Aruba,
proceeded out to the Ranella via the
Lago tug.
To be legally married under Nor-
wegian law it was necessary for the
couple to go beyond the three-mile
limit. There, in an impressive cere-
mony by candle light. Mr Siem
married Mr. Kristoffersen, chief
cook, and Miss Jovik, stewardess.
The romance started six years ago,
but the couple had served together
on the Ranella only during the last
three months The groom is from the
northern part of Norway while the
bride is from south Norway
The captain of the Ranella, Asb-
joern Sbreid, was instrumental in
paving the way for Dan Cupid by
steaming beyond the thiee-mile limit.
