in man's history, will Wave one
historical fact to give them grace
,in the memories of those now liv-
ing and in the future thoughts of
those yet unborn. With their dying
breath, the last hours of ten hectic
years were crammed with the spec-
tacular attempts of two world lea-
ders for peace: One launched the
plan of total disarmament, the oth-
er for food and plenty for every
living mortal. Both attempts at
world peace arelaudable and were
gratefully applauded by a weary
and frightened world citizenry.
As I ruminated these facts I
flicked the dust from the top of
the tables and emptied ash trays
piled high with butts, for much
of the weed was burned over a
heated discussion the night previ-
ously. My guests and I had watch-
ed a TV show built entirely on
controversial quotations argued by
a panel of four prominent persons.
The quotation which excited' our
comment was one by Al Capp, car-
toonist. The gist was that children
are being influenced to become de-
linquents by the fare dished up to
them on radio and TV. Crime,
Murder and gun play are an ob-
session of producers these days,
one panelist, a Salvation Army of-
ficer, contended.
We didn't come to any more
progressive decision than the pan-
el did. Some of my guests support-
ed the woman who contended that
parental discipline could counter-
act the bad influence of blood-
thirsty shows. "Turn it off", was
her answer.
T tried to push such a stupid
panacea out of my mind as I
planned my .first railway trip after
the holiday season spent at home.
But it kept coming back. It got all
mixed up with Eisenhower's world
journey, his concern for the starv-
ing millions in India; the voice
of the Russian leader's interpreter
on a recent visit to the United
States, pleading for disarmament
and my own conviction, that radio
and TV are a much more power-
ful influence on the morals of our
children than we credit them With,
I watched the warm rays of the
sun dissolve the lee on tree and
bush and wished the world might
be flooded with more of the im-
agination of prairie residents, Who
view such 'a phenomenon of nature
so romantically. I tossed my make-
up kit and train slippers into my
small bag and worried not a lit-
tle about us humans, We miss so
Much of the beauty of our world-
ly existence and tolerate so much
that is ugly, it's no wonder I
thought, that nations get in such
a mess of fear and 'hate at the
decade !just pasted recorded for
posterity.

Out where. the West begins they the maddest and most astonishing
have a romantic name for the
kind of day that greeted me as
the sun rose on the horizon of a
new year and a now deoade. They
call it a silver thaw. The trees
were captured in a crystal coat
and the ground willows and eat-
tails in our swamp glistened with
a million prisms. Easterners in
Canada are far less romantic, they
merely moan, "the rain froze last
night. Bad for the trees."
Across the clean new snow,
pheasants had made'three cornered
tracks with a 'swirl bbliind where
their long, beautiful tail feathers
dragged, I could trace the hop, hop
pattern of a' jack rabbit and pic-
ture the mad dash he made when
my neighbour's hound puppy show-
ed• off his ability to flush game.
Not a breath of wind stirred the
heavy branches of my favaurite
white pine whose majestic strength
hovers the winter bird colony. It
was flocked with ice and each of
its myraicl needles seemed outlin-
ed in fluffy, clean snow. Against
the intense blue of the winter sky
a cardinal and his mate looked
like animated apples that had es-
caped the fall hareest, as they per-
ched in the leafless apple tree
which in summertime shades my
study window.
I am trying to capture in this
diary all of the beauty of that
morning •as' the '50's died and the
'60's were born without, as yet, a
blemish of war or a threat of ex-
tinction from atomic attack on
their record.
It is impossible to contemplate
the new year without thinking of
resolutions and new starts. Reso-
lutions for most of us, are like
warm dill pickle's, limp and taste-
less a 'few days after having been
dreartied up. But as lorig as man
nurtures hope, -the idea of a fresh
start will be the beginning of hap-
py New Year's' anticipation.
