PLEASE BE ON TIMEI WHAT BRINGS HAPPINESS In contemplating the potential joys of an exciting new year, with new horizons of success, I would like to make the following hopeful suggestions of things we might all strive to improve Ill begin today by cleaning the snow off my sidewalk upon; and also from the older neighbor, so that those who pass will know that a considerate person lives at this address. I will take the time right now to enjoy my family and to take the necessary time to talk to them and listen to them tell me about their hopes and dreams. Realizing the hazards that surround my teenagers, I will talk to them about the dangers of mind killing drugs and the heartaches that accompany immorality. Taking the time to watch my children perform at school and to support the schools athletic and dramatic ac- tivities will certainly give great pleasure to both observer and participant. Ill also begin to make plans early for a great family vacation this year. Writing to a servicemen regularly will be a matter of personal pride. By Flying my American flag respectfully and proudly on all national and state holidays, people will know that I love my country. In a civic or community way, I will do what I can to locate potential new industry that could add economic wealth to my town. Both my Republican and Democratic representatives will know how feel about taxation, foriegn policy and other important issues. By making fewer demands on my government this year, I will help to reduce our unhealthy national debt. As busy as I might think I am, there will still be time to visit the senior citizens in the rest homes and humble circumstances they find themselves living in, as they pass the sometimes lonely hours of retirement. of mind in terms of my association Enjoying a quiet peac with God and my fellow men, I will seek to do those things that will allow this spirit to continue. This year I will attend church with my children rather than to send them each Sunday. One national best seller I must find time to read this year is the Bible. As a parent Ill offer my church leaders my assistance and help, wherever they might need it. If the scoutmaster needs someone to take a load of boys to summer camp, Ill offer my help. Ill cast my vote for wholesome movies by attending those films with a G rating. Throughout the new year, Ill try to be considerate and concious of others. When attending weddings and funerals Ill be considerate about those who are still waiting in line. Its a big list I know, but I also realize that any one of these wishes fullfilled will make life happier and more fullfilling for all mankind. Remember nothing ventured nothing gained.

MEMBER But when pretty, browneyed Angela M. of Augusta, Ga., gets cranky, theyre apt to think she needs a blood transfusion. Angela has an hereditary birth defect of the blood called thalassemia major or Cooleys anemia. By the age of four, she had received a total of 60 pints of blood, and still requires a transfusion about every two to three weeks. are such a Transfusions way of life for Angela that people tend to feel sorry for her and excuse perfectly normal misbehavior, says Dr. Dorothy Hahn, chief clinic physician of the March of Dimes Birth Defects Center at the Medical College of Georgia where Angela is a patient. Instead of the mild discipline needed at school or elsewhere, she often gets misplaced sympathy. Like all bright, observant children she quickly learns to take advantage of this with adults outside her home. Angelas young parents, East Indians who came to Augusta from New Delhi, cope very well with her condition and upbringing. Her father, an Oxford-trained biochemist on the College, faculty of the Medical sari-clad and her attractive, treat their mother, youngest child as firmly as they do her brother and sister despite the seriousness of Angelas condition. Good behavior is impartially expected of each member of the family. Victims of thalassemia major tend to die in their first or second decade. Their red blood to one-ha- lf cells last only one-thiof the normal length of time. Frequent transfusions help, but children with the disease are vulnerable to infections and even a mild cold can develop into fatal pneumonia. An estimated 25,000 children and young adults in the United States are believed to have thalassemia. Angela is too young to understand the words survival and transfusions in the sense adults do. But she does understand that she is different from normal children and rd WEST w. Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Hall and family attended a farewell party at Bountiful for .

A patient at a March of Dimes Birth Defects Center, the pretty East Indian child needs frequent blood transfusions to treat a severe form of anemia called "thalassemia major." ALTHOUGH knows that something may happen to her. A caller at her familys pleasant suburban home quickly realizes, however, how much Angelas parents have helped her to learn to live with her condition. While the little girl played beyond hearing, her mother spoke frankly to a visitor about Angelas sometimes disturbing questions. Last year, Angela asked her father, Am I going to live or die? My husband answered, Child if you want to live, you will live. I think that was a beautiful answer, full of wisdom. Angela told her father she very much wished to live.
