1854 This is a new year!
How many of we mortals will be-
come new creatures? My New
Years resolutions? None! Each
day l resolve to try and do better
and be a better person. We can
all do this. Marry when the year
is new, always loving, kind and
true, and to all you 1854 brides and
grooms, l bequeath these three
words: Loving, Kind and True. &"
II you live by these there will be
no strife nor parting of ways. The
times either get ''ruffled or up
set Just sit down together and
think of the love you gave and the
/ promise you made to your Maker.
Each new day resolves to become
| stronger in your daily living. You
have a Helper WhON can make all
things right. January! Well, this
too, brings happy memories to me.
