" ; ■ : Tojt, - K t.- yJxjS cftiiiMOfl Time Why celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of the next? It seems a strange custom vet there is a good reason for it. Few, if any of us, have come even close to perfection in the year iust ending. So we look ahead toward 365 brand new days, blank pages in the next chapter of ovr lives. What will we do with them? On the eve of a New Year, most of us certainly have the desire to try harder, to be better people. But even while we are saying. Off with the old and on with the new," we ore also clinging to the good in the days gone by. As we renew old friendships, we thank God for those friends for the Faith he has given us, for life itself And, in the midst of revelry, we stort the year the best way of all: We go to church Sunday Isaiah 7:10-14 Monday Isaiah 9:1-6 Copyright 19C4 Keister Advertising Service.
