Thursday, December 11, 1969 ''i No. 50 H The month of decision making - the climax to many areas of service one has tried to achieve through a busy year. A month of planning to bring a degree of happiness and joy to many through the glorious Christmas season of giving to gladden the hearts of loved ones and friends, and others not quite as fortunate as we are. A month of inventory taking and checking up to see where se stand financially, morally and spiritually. A month of resolutions to determine our course for another year of service that might include giving a little more of ourselves with our alms; more sincere, honest effort to give more for what we get that will lesson the spirit of selfishness and greed through the example we set. Surely December can be a month of Thanksgiving for the wonderful privilege of being alive; to be an American and live in the greatest country on earth. To be an Integral part of our community. To share life with fine neighbors, So let us make this December a sincere friends and earnest month of more careful consideration for the rights of others, both as to property and service. A little more kindness, a little less creed. All this and more will make this a December to remember thoughout our lives. co-work- ers.
