well underway by the time
this issue of the Clothmakpr
reaches you. I wonder how
many of us have stopped long
enough at the end of the past
year to realize just how much
and how many wonderful
blessings have been ours.
Possibly everything has not
been as easy as we thought it
should be, but regardless of
how bad it seemed at the
time, it could have been much
worse.
We haven't had too many
different discussions on safety
the past month so I read this
article in the newspaper and
I wonder how many of you
did. If you did not I would
like to pass it on to you. I'll
rewrite it as follows:
The National Safety Council
can be Philosophical a^
well a. admonitory. A recent
bulletin states: "There's nothing
much you can do about
winter weather except to be
prepared for it." So likewise
to safety. Let's all stay p.
pared and be alert, that means
always safety minded.
