OUR Opinions REMEMBER THOSE LESS FORTUNATE

With Christmas just two weeks away, most of us will be rush- Forum ing about -- either to the stores and malls or online --- as we do our last-minute holiday shopping in hopes of finding that “per- fect” gift for our family members and loved ones. Although the vast majority of Americans have much to be thankful for because of a strong economy and a record-low unemployment rate, there are many of our fellow citizens who have not shared in the general prosperity. Statistics tell us that millions of Americans of all ages, in- cluding those in our own communities, have been left out of the new economy, often through no fault of their own. Too many Americans, including children, either live in shelters or tempo- rary housing arrangements because the strong economy ironi- cally has left them out in the cold -- literally -- thanks to high rents and soaring real estate values. For these millions of Americans, the reality is that the holiday season brings little joy. We would note that psychologists tell us that the Biblical di- rective that giving to others is the best gift that we can give to ourselves is indeed true. So we hope that our readers will take the time and make the even the smallest effort to do something for those who are less fortunate. Whether it be donations to local food banks and toy programs, or even as simple as dropping a few dollars in the bucket of the Salvation Army Santas, there is something each and every one of us can do to make the holidays brighter for others. CONGRATULATIONS, MANNY LOPES We join East Boston residents in congratulating East Boston Neighborhood Health Center President and CEO Manny Lopes on his appointment as the chair of the Boston Board of Health.

Local crafters and bakers had their goods on display at the Deane Winthrop House last Saturday, Dec. 8, for the annual Winthrop Improvement and Historical Association (WIHA) holiday open house. From origami artwork to handcrafted jewelry, the House was hopping with festive flair and Santa made sure to make an appearance for a few good photo ops.

Dan Dalo shows off his origami art. Ellen Gaynor is happy to have a chat with Santa Ellen MacNeil and Barbara Bishop.

Sam Yarrow scored four goals and assisted two of Luke Evangelista’s three goals as the Vikings opened their 2018-2019 hockey season with a 7-1 thrashing over the visiting Portland/ Deering (Maine) Bulldogs Saturday, Dec. 8, at Larsen Rink. Things were quiet for only about the first seven minutes of the game. With 9:24 remaining, Yarrow scored his first goal, unassisted. By the time Yarrow got around to a second goal, Evangelista had added three of his own. Yarrow and Corey Che- rico assisted on Evangelista’s first goal late in the first period. In the second, Winthrop dominated and Evangelista accounted for his Hat Trick as he scored twice. Evangelista put Winthrop up 3-0 assisted by Brian Chalmers, and then made it 4-0 assisted by Yarrow and Andrew DeMento. The third period was Yarrow’s showcase. He scored his sec- ond goal, assisted by Brian Chalmers; his third, assisted by Co- rey Cherico, and then added one more unassisted goal the Vi- kings to the victory. Goaltender Ryan Skoczylas was steady in net to backbone the win. The Vikings played Northeast Region- al Voke on Wednesday at the Malden Valley Forum and travel to the Foxboro Sport Center Saturday, Dec. 16, to play Mansfield.
