Do we really know how much we owe our Guardian Angel? He is always at our side praying for us, offering our prayers and good works to God, inspiring pious thoughts, inciting us to do better, and protecting us from physical, moral and spiritual harm. If we fall into serious sin he gives us no rest until we've made our peace with God. As much as our Angel does for us he could, do more if we would cooperate with him. Successful working of any team demands cooperation.

ami Mrs. 0, By w. HOBBY Jr The most valuable heritage -of this state, and the most priceless inheritance we can leave our children, is the land and the living things that mnke their home on this land. There is no other state, indeed, there are few other nations, whose boundaries contain such startling diversity, such awesome beauty as that which exists within Texas. The excitement and promise of our land, our woods, out- wildlife was the greatest lure for the original settlers and Continues to be an important reason for the never ending migration to Texas.

As this steady growth in population continues, we must make certain that the natural environment of Texas keeps its excitement and retains its promise. There is real danger that our tremendous growth in population, with accompanying problems of pollution, over-crowding, mounting volumes of waste material, and others, will damage the land. Also, the vegetation and the denying future generations the knowledge of their beauty and the challenge of their diversity. Texas recognizes the treasure it has in its land and wildlife, and is determined to protect this treasure by guarding our environment. Ecology no longer occupies the front pages of our daily newspapers as it did during the early part of this decade.

Other issues have now grabbed our attention, but the needs of the environment are still demanding. Let me quote you a few figures: More than 90 percent of all public forest is open to cutting. Into streams once clear, we pour 175 billions of waste each year. Each of us, on an average, generates five pounds of garbage a day- Burning it fouls the air; burying it ruins underground wetlands. We are putting 500,000 different chemicals into our environment.

Airborne lead from gasoline and other fuels fall into the ocean at the rate of 250,000 tons a year. If transportation systems grow at the current pace, the next generation may never see the sun because of smog and fumes. The rush toward urbanization, if continued at the present rate, will consume another 500,000 square miles of open Visitors Entertained In Reistino Home Recent visitors in the home of Mr. and Mrs. J.

C. Reistino included his daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Meredith Price from Eden; Mrs. Reistino's grandsons, Tom and Kelly Bittner from Dallas; Miss Yvonne Lampson of Dallas, Mr.

and Mrs. T. J. Lampson of Stafford, Mr. and Mrs.

Preston Ruffeno of Missouri City, Anthony Julius Lampson of Houston and Mr. and Mrs. Tony Lampasona and daughters, Michelle and Mary Ann from Toronto, Canada. The Lampasona family of Canada were house guests in the home of Mr. and Mrs.

Tony Lampson during the nine days they spent in Hearne visiting with relatives, Mrs, Reistino motored the foursome to Houston during the stay to show them places of interest. Highlights of the sojourn included viewing the Medina! Center, the Astrodome, Astroworld and the city itself. Afterward they were entertained at the homes of Mrs- Relstino's sister, Mr. and Mrs. Preston Ruffeno Missouri City, and Mrs, Beistino's brothers, Mr.

and Mrs. lusinpson, Mr. and Mrs. Sam uunpson, all of Mr, and Mrs. Frank Mr- and Mrs.

T- ftU of Stafford, Mrs- Sam country before the nest gene ration arrives that W'Otild be the equivalent of a new' city 550 miles wide nnd 100 miles long There is a delicnte ecological web that binds man nnd nature If it is destroyed, man cannot survive, nnd the figures 1 have just mentioned give nmple evidence that it is being destroyed As a young nation, with great courage and strength, we axed and carved a civilization out of the wilderness, but in our rush to build a new society, we did not conserve We are void of planning, insensitive to beauty and thoughtless of the generation to come. Only recently have we begun to realize the necessity for conservation, but we have yet admitted the gigantic nature of the effort we must make We have water pollution control acts and clean air acts We are investigating better methods of solid-waste dis pnsa I We are creating national forests and protecting a few beaches and waterways We are searching for new sources of natural resources, and seeking substitutes and man-made substances All of us are going to pay and sacrifice but there can be no doubt that the cost and the sacrifice are necessary. It is up to us to see that our kept beautiful, that our history is preserved, that our lakes are clean, that every Texan can enjoy our parks and recreation sites. This land is our land, but we are holding it in trust for future generations. Let us make certain that we pass it on in a better condition than it was found and let us hope that they will do the same.
