Sometimes they would surround the settlers for reasons only known to themselves. They were rarely up to anything more dangerous than a little mischief. It was still a for occurrence frightening everyone except one little pioneer woman who probably was preparing for her Christmas dinner. .The story is told that one little brave was bold enough to leave the rest of the tribe and come wandering into the house. The family was uncertain how to respond, but let him alone until he picked up a fork off the table that was set for dinner and starting combing his hair with it. This was just too much for that little pioneerw.omaaro she. grabbed the little IndTari 'by the' shoulders and bodily picked him up and set him down on the hot stove! When the Indians heard him scream they were concerned, and when he burst out of the house yelping and grasping his bottom they collected their burned brave and took of to their camp. The little pioneer woman went on with her Christmas cooking unaware that they had been sent especially there to make peace with the Indians! Lucky for them, there was no more trouble and they had a peaceful Christmas dinner! Some Thoughts For A New Year by: Rhoda Sullivan ; As Father Time with his trusty sickle rings out the last chimes of the old year, a babe with the numbers 1997 waits in the wings to take his place in history. It's a blessing that we know not what awaits us as another year unfolds. We can only hope for the usual, peace, prosperity, and good health. Of the three, I think, the latter is the most important, for id health fails, you care naught for the other two. Many of us are oblivious to what is happening in the world. And of course may feel that prosperity should come whether it's worked for or not. A wish for good health is such a personal thing that it should be uppermost in the individual mind. " Look to the past and it will ' be like a crystal ball to the future. Hence, the old saying; "What goes around, comes around." Profit by past mistakes and try not to repeat them. Each : day is a learning day and ripe : for new ideas to make our lives better. J Enjoy the "Now" and don't expect more that you have the ability to obtain for the future. Surely, with a sense of hopeful- ness, you're bound to be blessed and your wishes will come true, it it's destined to it will. Happy New Year To All!! may it take us into a new year full of blessings that might of got left behind in 1996. It is now time to start thinkof our resolutions. ing Resolutions that with the spirit of will power, we can accomplish a set goal. My new years resolution is to teach (my) children the power of words. Like awesome (instead of "rad") or unique (instead of ordinary) and conover science indifferent. Definitely love above hate and hope instead of despair, and the word destiny. The now to our future. With the will power of sticking to this resolution the power of words may open their hearts to perceive a flicker of the home fires burning. Words can breathe life into dying embers.
