|LY ACKNOWLEDGE the
beautiful cards from our IOTA

that time and space permitted
us to list the names of our
good Jackson friends who re-

our pile of Christmas cards to
more than 200 and to those
who cards got lost in the mails

conducted by a fine commit

would have had nothing.
MOST OF THE CHURCHES
had services and all of them
we're wei lattended thus
attesting to the fact that in
their gaiety, Jacksonians, on
the whole, were not unmind-
full of from what source their
blessings came :.
HIGH ON THE SOCIAL
CALENDER were the two very
pretty dances given by THE
SOPHISTICATED LAVAR-
ETTES at the Elk's Auditor
ium and the CONCORDIA
CLUB at Stevens Rose Room
I. Both were well attended
by beautifully dressed ladies
and their correctly attired es-
corts Highlight of the
Sophisticates Dance was the
presentation of handsome
plaques to two of the nations
most outstanding citizens !.

OUR DEEP AND PRO-
FOUND SYMPATHY is sent
out California way to Oakland,
and Berkley to our dear
friend, IRENE PATTERSON
WALKER and family, in the
death of their oldest sister,
the late WYLLIE PATTER-
SON ALLEN, for whom fun
eral services were held in
Oakland, an account of which
will be found elsewhere in this
issue. We are grateful for
another friend, ILENE PAT
TERSON TODD, cousin,
who flew out from Chicago to
Oakland for the funeral and
took time to send us a letter
telling of the death. Again
we offer to these friends, deep
and profound sympathy.
WE WOULD LIKE TO GO
ON AND ON. but since we
began this column. seems
the FLU Bug has taken a Bit
at us and we are feeling ter
rible.
AS WE B GIN another
year, we realize and confess
our many mistakes. how
ever we hope that we can
cash in on our mistakes OF
1862, let them be a lesson to
us and as we profit by them,
make 1863 our BIGGEST AND
BEST YEAR in Service to our
GOD AND OUR FELLOW.
MAN We'd like nothing
better than to just rest
but in our reading we came
across the poem used in our
Thought For Today" above.
We realize there's a job to be
done in the world about us
and as the author above has
said, we too, will DARE AN.
OTHER CRUISE. "A HAP
Ply AND PROSPEROUS NEW
YEAR TO ALL AND RE.
