Show Officer personnel records change under new system The Deseret Sampler, Friday, May 12, 1972 HAPPINESS Happiness to me is doing a job well and helping other people. There is no greater happiness than lieing able to make others happy. Too many people in this world are interested in themselves without regard to the needs and problems of others. A person reflects the happiness he B. S. brings to other people. Prather, P11P: A Forum For a Better World, Japan ' IMAGINATION who laeks The individual imagination or die use of it, or this who has not permitted unusual, divine faculty to develop, is Ixnind by ancient traditions and customs; he is blind to the future in all of its creative stages. Such an individual can live only in the past for he can have no foresight and must therefore lie lacking in ambiDr. tion and creative desires.

ONE OF the points emphasized iu the adoption of the changes and the concepts for further action is that the rights of the individual to be afforded basic safeguards and to be treated with equality and fairness must lie maintained. At the same time, by putting the system into balance, the rights of all individuals to fair consideration for promotion and assignment will lie protected. Inflated efficiency reports and a reluctance to say anything derrogatory about an officer hinder professionalism.
