RESOLUTIONS
The New Year evokes in the
heart a feeling akin to that experienced
by a mariner who fares
forth on uncharted seas. Like
: every new "beginning", it definitely
stimulates emotions which call
| forth new resolves, new enthusii
asm new approaches, new ideals,
a NEW CREATION.
It is decidely to the race's advantage
that there are places and
periods of higher"'decision where
one might catch, the gleam that
will lead his faltering feet ever
upward. However, it is *a lesson
well woj'th learning that success
:44eS-not-in?w\er nt i 11? n t ~ro solutions
?that our destinies are not in our
STARS, but in OURSFT VFS'
The appalling rate r1 which'New
Year resolutions -are broken' exI
oses a tragedy in human atti11udes
and human behavior. It
portmys as few thin;?." do. -the limitations
and weaknesses of til*
human raceynnd?in cases far too
many?downright insincerity. For
it is a task not 'at ali difficult for
the most" flippant to make resolutions
in the New Year because it
has become a "fad" yather than a
];vin-u \>x i vv:j' aim fairinn s-fm.ilual
retreat. Not only does it
smack of hypocricv. but nothing
is there more futjTe than forming
resolutions without due record to
the will and strength of Him with
out which our desires cannot Inupheld
for .even ONE DAY.
The men w"jo have made civilization
wire hot yearly re.solvers.
Rftthcr, they .were persons whom
every rising. sun found with a
spirit of r.i-w surrender, incorporating
God in their conscience, and
accountability into?their ronibf*;

each year, but every day. they kept
some nlacc inviolate where only
the silent Or.<>s could come and irn
h'-'wien them and their God:
where the.*' renting MindoT the

of the Child could meet and come

We would not desparage New
Year resolutions, but we do hold
that there w..uld be much 1,-ss reason
for forgivtness. much less ill
feelings to deplore, fewer losses incurred.
fewer scars to heal and
more rejoicing. if EVERY MORNING
marked a period of spiritual'
