Ring the bells! Sound the horns! The New Year 1968 arrives, and with it our sincere good :wish for your health and happiness in the daysahead. A Sincere Wish To All Our Friends --FROM THE. FOLKS AT THE STANDARD OFFICE A NEW YEAR'S MESSAGE (By Rev, Peter Pakenham, Rector Trinity Anglican 'Church, Blyth) "WHERE IS TIIIS BUS GOING" When A young man ran madly for a bus. When he fought his .way.through the corwd of other passengers, he sank exhausted into the first available scat; and then exclaimed "Where is this bus going," We might ask the same question of ourselves, Where is our destination? Where are we going in the year ahead? God alone knows the complete answer,, And, with Him, all -things are possible. But our goal must be the commanding goal set by Jesus Christ—the Kingdom of God, It is not up to us; it is Mainly God's gift. But we must do our part, and our part must be (lone in loving obedience, We shall be given the opportunity to show if we really want to go -through our Church's- program toward a more Christian community, in home, in school, in industry— indeed, in all of society here and everywhere.

As usual, there are exceptions to the rule, Some of us weren't born. until June, and are only six monhs oldter. Others, after the Dionysian rites of New Year's Eve, are eight years older. But count your blessings if you bursitis, your blood pressure and your belly are not hurting more, up more, or sticking out more. or sticking out more, And count some more if you've made a friend, had a thrill, done one good thing, loved somebody, and stayed out of the clutches of the boys with the strait -jackets, I've managed to do all these things, these simple things, and feel that this makes up, in some measure, for the fact that 1967 was probably the most harrassing year of my entire life, The last year has been one of thane nightmares in which you only realize you're awake when you pinch yourself and it hurts. And when you pinch yourself and it doesn't hurt, it means only that you're so numb you can't feel, My firstborn quit -college and went on the bum, the bum, Mexico, New Orleans, Montreal, Expo and now New 'York, where he's studying acting.

But I can't, The floor has just ton. been polished. And somebody has to take out the garbage, and drive the cleaning lady home, But, as you see, there's something cheering about the whole thing. There's no place to go but up. Maybe Hugh will become a famous actor, Maybe Kim will become a waitress who doesn't have her thumb in the soup. Maybe the Old Lady will become normal, And, who knows, maybe this is my big year, Maybe I'll break 100 in golf? Maybe I'll write the Great Canadian Novel? Maybe I'll get my Christmas tree to stand up? Thus, hope springs eternal in the human heart. One mile- stone nearer the grave, but also a milestone passed in the effort to live life with .dignity, humor and love. Perhaps you don't like those three terms, Perhaps you'd prefer rectitude, righteousness and religion, Or industry', intelli- gence and integrity. Fair enough. I like mine because they're more difficult. I find it ex- tremely hard to be dignifed, no matter how I try, It's almost im- possible to retain a sense of humor when you have Rotten Kids. And it's extremely difficult to love. Truly and without qualifica- tions, This is all very abstract. Let's get down to concrete examples. Have you ever tried to be dignified while !performing a flying tackle at your daughter in the snow in the back yard as she's leaving home for good, at midnight? Have you ever tried to retain a gay sense of humor when your home form has given you, for Christmas, instead of the crock you confidently expected, a bottle of shaving lotion? (Some people can drink it; I can't,) Have you ever tried to love someone with bad breath, a constant sniff (and dirty fingernails, but who is basically a good, dull person? Ah, well, the hell with it, It's another year, Once a square, always a square, And all three members of my family agree that I'm the most perfectly rounded square they've ever met, But I'm trying to become at least a parallelogram in '68. And the same to you. 111i IITIETIF 11111111111111111111110111111111 111111111111111F11f11i 11 (11!1811111111 1111111111111111 1111111111111111111111111111111111111111',111, IT'S GOOD BUSINESS THE STANDARD TO USE THE CLASSIFIED PAGES OF Whether Shopping For a Bargain or Looking For a Buyer sl111{!11111111111111111111111111111111;111111111111 1111111ll 11111 111!�II eral days in London with Mr, and Mrs. Garth.

The man or woman who prays, who worships keeps in touch with that which is beyond. From the meeting with God which we have in prayer and worship, we return refreshed and strengthened for daily living. Our Lord said that we ought to "keep on praying and never lose heart" (Luke 18:1). Why not make prayer a daily habit in your life? You might be surprised at the result. What's ahead for TV in 1968? What kind of schedules will be put out by the networks for the '68.69 season which will probably start the first of September? Downthrough the years we have had comics and comedies of all descriptions, westerns, movies, adventure stories, animal stories, murders, mysteries, variety shows, news specials, documentaries, mu- sic presentations, quiz shows, pan- el shows and specials of all de• scrip tions. What's left? What will tele• vision do next? Naturally, every- thing will be in colour. But what type of program will appeal next year? A few years ago the hit of the season was The Beverly Hillbill- ies, which is still :with us. Ed. Sullivan is the oldest show on TV and there are no signs of CBS dropping that one. Witches have appeared and it's certain that series will go on for a few more seasons, When Batman made his appear• ance the critics said it bad to go. It's still with us, with Batgirl being acicled to keep up the in. terest. This was the first year for The Second Hundred Year -- a story about a man frozen for 67 years and returning to normal life, Well, maybe it's not quite normal, The flying nun descended upon us in 1967 and is , certain to re- main on earth for n few years, Hits, are made in Hollywood, but this year it was in Heaven, Will the industry' go to the oOp- nosite direction for material and inspiration?

"Juvenile deliquencey is vir• tually unknown among Jehovah's Witnesses and the reason for this is because parents take their children right along with them to congregational meetings and to conventions like the one that will he held in Kincardine, Of course, parents must set the example for the young ones by being present themselves," said Mr. Martin.

Visitors welcome, Gordon E. Wightman Sends Best Wishes And Remembrances to Walter Cooks On Occasion Of Their 50th Anniversary Thursday, December 28, 1967, Dear Walter and Charlotte, - The enclosed clipping from the Blyth Standard,•• your home -town paper, that comes to us each week these many years, now -- calls for some kind response from me, -- an old neighbor of BOTH of you 70 year's ago, •- and a school tea- cher of yours, Charlotte, •• or was I? away back in the brief year I taught in S.S. No, 6, in Westfield School a lifetime ago. You two have now joined the •oldtime club of us who have still the same mate we were lucky enough, to secure FIFTY YDARS Ago! The details of events that long ago are getting a bit hazy for me, •- but I still have a clear picture of your place, Walter, a few rods up the little hill from the church on the 4th Concession, and of your place Charlotte, another few rods East on the same 4th next door to your Uncle Bob Tun- ney, who used to tend the big old wood furnace in the church, and raise or lover the windows' that ALWAYS stuck a bit in the church. I can still mind the barn raising on your old home place Walter, I came home from 'C.C.I. from Goderich to attend it. I also mind when you farmed Robert Iro'over's farm, and . the old Westfield church was moved over to be your drive shed, My Conscious world of 1967 is getting more and more to be the images of those old PEACEFUL DAYS, when WAR and TRAFFIC HORRORS were undreamed of and even a quiet death in the community was a rare event, •- we were all living in a GOLDEN AGE --without even KNOWING IT, -- and often idly complained about how IIARD THE TIMES were! Our own wedding day fell in June 1912, and we two here will commence our 56th. year togeth- er, -• if we live that long, till next rune. We both teeter about a little slower than we used to but we still eat regularly, three tines a day, and a day In bed is a for- gotten experience for either of us, Our combined ages add up to 167, so you can sec our gripes, if we have any fancied ones add up to ZERO! 1 just wanted to say "Hello" to you both, and urge you both to remember that it is t'he HORROR items that make the headlines, The millions who mind their own business, seldom get into the hur- ried search of those who have chosen News Reporting as a means of making a living, My Mother was ALWAYS an exhorter AGAINST evil, I would not be her true son if I Failed to follow her lead, in sounding off in my closing line, " • I am come, that ye may have Life, •• and May have IT more ABUNDANTLY!'
