Der Kalender erscheint nur einmal im Jahr. Ihr erwartet daher vom Kalendermann etwas ande­ res als vom Reporter einer Tageszeitung. Unser Kalender ist noch weltanschaulich einheitlich, d. h. in unserem Falle katholisch, während die Tageszeitungen nicht mehr eine, sondern ver­ schiedene religiöse und politische Anschauungen bedienen wollen. Unser Kalender kann auch nicht für alle Probleme des kommenden Jahres und darüber hinaus Lösungen anbieten. Er kann auch nicht über die tausend Geschehnisse der jüngsten Vergangenheit berichten. Der Kalender­ mann wird auf einige grundsätzliche Fragen hinweisen, die in christlichem Geist gelöst werden sollen. Ich nehme mir da ein Beispiel an einem berühmten Kalendermann, nämlich Alban Stolz; der war auch Priester wie ich, lebte auch in Freiburg, aber nicht im Üchtland, sondern im Breisgau. In einem ganz vergilbten Kalender fand ich sein Geleitwort für den Jahrgang 1881. Ich drucke es ab und schreibe daneben mein Geleitwort für 1981. Der Kalendermann F. N.
