It is time once again to observe the holiday of the New Year dawning, to Joyfully celebrate the fact that we have come to another turning point in th* recording of man’s time on earth. According to custom, gaiety is th* kjeynote of the New Year observance. This is the time of year when We don’t mind lAting our hair down—or covering it up with a gaily-colored party hat For some peculiar reason—as if we in some way personally contributed to the ' fact that another year has been successfully concluded—w* enjoy a feeling of accomplishment Yet New Year's Day, like the greater holiday of Christmas which it so closely follows, brings to us much mor* than another chance to be gay and happy with ourselves. The New Year rightfully should be a time for reflection—not in the , nostalgic vein—but with a careful eye of appraisal. While it is well enough to "never look down” from the heights, the wise man-in-a-hurry must look back over his shoulder from time to time if he is to accurately estimate his progress and achievement We are mostly happy with the arrival of a New Year because it is our nature to plan and to dream of better things in the future. We like the chance to start again with "a clean slate" which provides plenty of room tor the recording of new ambitions, new aims and new achievements. But we sometimes forget that January 1 brings only a change in th* calendar and the postmark on our letters. We are still the person that we were on December 31. If we are then to profit from the New Year 1959, we must determine that our experiences during 1958—the accomplishments, failures and th* things left undone—give some indication of our chances for success during the year ahead. We can look to the future; but we must build on the past We sincerely hope that 1959 will be a year of achievement, peace and prosperity for us all. |
