How many, if any, resolutions concerned in­ dividual action for the good of society as a whole instead of improvement or gain for self? For example - how many people promised to change their goals? To lessen an interest in quantity of personal possessions and strengthen quality of character in dealings with other people? To replace dislikes^ and hatreds with acts and evidence of love for their fellow man? To strive for agreement and union as a re­ placement for stubbornness or contrariness? To abstain from retaliation for alleged or actual wrongs by others? To t&l]_ the truth i&tead of seeking excuses for errors with use of false or idle words? To decrease doubts, despair and fear - and increase hope and faith? To seek strength and calmness through daily prayer instead of occasional pleadings to Heaven when earthly props fail? These are the sort of resolutions that only you can make for yourself. No one else can make them for you. And certainly no one else can keep them for you. Are they worth while? Oily you can answer that . . May we mention again that you comment by letter, phone or person is always welcome - and appreciated- be it pro or con . . . GEORGE R. JUSTEN FUNERAL HOME ' 3519 W.
