history, but the memory of gooC
deeds are stamped indelibly upol
our minds and plays sweet music
upon the heart strings of the soul
as we look into the mirror Of char
acter and ask the individual ques
ton, have we helped to make some
one happier, or tried to ease The
burden of a neighbor or friend witt
a smile or kind word; have we
purpose in life or what is our OBJ
jective, or our motives, are they al
truistic, if they are, they will he'll
to drive the wheels of righteousness
over the roads of life for common
good. If we have failed during the
year of 1929, we have the year OF
1880 to begin anew. The star OF
hope is the morning star Of lfe's
greatest ambition. The bells Of faith
are pealing out their glad notes
calling us to large avenues Of SER
vice.
