(Anonymous) However, circumstances of today is evident, especially to our younger generation, that love is slowly losing its value. It has become the excuse in covering wrongful actions. To say you love someone is merely to talk about it. To show you love someone is doing something about it. Love is about sacrificing ourself to the needs of others. This is the truth of love. Genuine, heartfelt love, anything other is artificial and selfish to our own need to be loved. The opposite of love is hatred. We cannot love one minute and hate the next. It is unhealthy and destructive in our search for the peace real love offers. Finding this step towards a true, spiritual love comes in opening the door on a spiritual life. There is much to be learned in applying the principles to our character. Don't close the door upon "thinking" we know all there is to know. We don't. God is about the truth of love. The love of truth. He is not singled out to any sex, race, or religion. Step out into the light of his direction. Find life iri love. , "Take Charge of Your Money" will The USU Extension Office finanpresent a seven-wee- k course in Minersville and Beaver this cial management Workshops will be conducted on Thursday afternoons in Minersville Thursday evenings in Beaver beginning January 22 and ending March Winter. 12,1998.

That was only one of the special traits of the man's personality. Whenever you talked with Warren you knew he was truly interested and was listening to your words. He shared life with you! Warren smilingly accepted everybody with his gracious and witty manner. Being around him was always a warm and lively experience. There was never any class distinctions for Warren... he sincerely enjoyed and understood all sorts of people. A more generous nature in a person was never born. Generous with his time, generous with his praise, and generous with his money. That was Warren!! Perhaps the outstanding quality in Warrens character was his inability to speak evil of anyone. If he didn't have a good word about someone he usually said nothing. But when he was displeased, Warren could pull a face that would say more than any amount of words! There are many of us who will never find another for that spot in our lives that was filled by good ole' Warren. His place in our hearts and minds is ever secure! Oh, Warren! You're really going to be missed. the Depression. They provided the muscle and the back bone for World War II Victory. They valued hard work. They had the G.I. Bill, which opened college doors to them and also loans from the Government that helped the Veterans to make it possible to have a home. Then we had the generation of "Baby Boomers". They were born in 1946 to 1964. They enjoyed the fruits of the Post War boom. They witnessed the Vietnam War etc.. The generation that came next were born in 1965 to 1980. Each generation that came along were shaped by many forces. If you look back at these three generations, the G.I., the Boomers, and Generation X, they seem to be from different worlds. World War II was a turning point in America. As the men went off to war, women took over the production lines, turnout armaments, etc.. ing America was never the same. It seems that trends and fashions helped to identify a generation. The hair was crew, they had afros also. They began to play Nintendo games. They began all to drive trucks and play cassette tapes everywhere. The food was also different. They began having TV. and Microwave dinners in many of the homes. The young people began watching more western shows along with quiz shows. The shopping malls began to spring up all oyer the .country. The kids all wanted "to drive sport cars and have tattoos.
