We enter the New Year with special excitement because of the warm feelings left by the Christmas and New Year celebrations and our visits with our families. We tried to remember those less fortunate than ourselves, we tried to show our appreciation of our friends and loved ones, and some of us tried to keep the birthday and honor the ONE whose birthday we were celebrating. But we can not live in the past but must begin now. There is always a challenge to a beginning a beginning means something new then let us begin this New Year by trying to help some one make a new beginning. Let us make resolutions that we intend keeping and only those that are meaningful.

If your son or daughter smokes, and you'd like for them to stop, sit down and have a heart to heart talk with them. If you smoke why not stop yourself? You can not expect them to quit the habit unless you set the example. If some one in your family drinks too much perhaps they have seen you drinking or perhaps you keep too much in your home. Or perhaps your children's actions are hard to understand, or they are defiant when you set rules. Perhaps they are begging for discipline.

This could be one of your New Year resolutions. This brand New Year has no marks on its clean pages so far whatever is written here will be our doing. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could resolve to stop all of our bad habits and set a good example to those who may be watching us, or walking in our footsteps? In this New Year I hope the ones in authority at the universities and on the state boards will get tough, and send all the troublemakers home for good, open the universities for those students who want to get an education and let them go on with their studies. In this New Year we should all make a stand on some of the other disturbing things going on at our colleges, and some of the courses being taught there. In the Reader's Digest of January there is an article entitled "The War on the American Family, written by roving editor Lester Velie, who went all over the country to talk to the the college professors, who teach these subjects to the young men and women we send there.

Here they are taught that marriage and the family as we know them are finished. What I want to know is where are our college presidents, and what is the matter with our taxpayers, why don't they do something about disgraceful doings like this? It seems to be all these "two-bit" professors are doing is to lead the youth of our land into "hippie" communes where free love is practised with no responsibility as an alternative for marriage and home, and responsibility, and I might add respectibihty. These young folks would have to be exceptionally strong characters not to listen to all this "hogwash" when it is heard on every side, even though they might have come from homes that taught them all the right things. I do not believe we should tolerate professors of this sort. I am also firmly convinced that most of our troubles are due to our "don't care" attitude and our permissiveness.

We may grumble to ourselves about these things but what do we actually do' None of us take the trouble to go to those in authority and lay it on the line. I think this New Year would be a good place to start protesting about some of these things. This would be one of the most important resolutions of our lives. We know one person can do little but much can be accomplished if all band together. Then are we in this New Year going to make a new beginning 1UL COTY Aimanr miv mi ill i I ft Rare, once-a-year opportunity to enjoy Coty's world-famous fragrances at a really unbelievable low price!
