Nobody .seems to.„be able to give me a strong positive comment, without a note of worry and negativism creeping in: The be et that I've heard is "Well, it wasn't quite as bad as we thought it would be." Then I happened to pick up the comic section of the newspaper. and Dennis the Menace had the answer that I needed, He too was trying to take a positive approach to what some people might call a rotten year, and ended by deciding that "it's Vetter than a vacant lot, isn't it?" So, on the premise that anything is better tban nothing, let's look back together on some of the events of the year that was. Then, lets scrap it away, and try to build up eorrie hape-andeenthusiasm-for -the- New Year, 1981. If a villain for the year 1980 we re to be chosen, it would have to be the Ayatollah KOmeini. Watching the televised Christmas greetings sent out by satellite from some of the 52 hostages that have been held in Iran for over 420 days now, had to be one of the most heart-rending • scenes of our whole Christmas week. Did you notice how some of them had to read their speeches, instead of talking naturally to their families back home? and when the two women sang together, and then later the solo, "Be Near Me, Lord Jesus," the breaking voices and the tight control of manner indicated sate measure of the emotional ordeal „they were experiencing. Let these people come home safely, early in 1981. POtpOUrri by Jeanne KirkbY, The government of Iran is asking 524 billion ransom to be paid for the see return of these people, ler approximately $500 million each. President-elect Reagan has denounced this government as a gang of criminals and kidnappers. What diplomatic policy will he follow when he takes office in January: Please be gentle, Mr. Reagan. Don't land the western countries into a war, even if we do agree with your opinion of the Iran government. SCRAPPING There is an increased threat of nuclear war in the world today. Nothing terribly specific- right now, but 2ust a general attitude, and many explosive areas all scrapping or snarling at each other. Politicians discuss rearmament treaties, and compare their arsenals. A group of Americans physicians have even been moved to form a Society for the Prevention of Nuclear War. Their method is to publicize their projection of the effect of a bomb landing on a present-day city, and hopefully to impress political opinion with the amount of total de vastation that they foresee. Shades of the 50's1 We'll all be digging backyard bomb -shelters again if this keeps up. In 1981, should we consider abolishing all late news broadcasts? Each evening, so meny eeertee mat are d9WPtIght dcicOs ins are played right in your living r091111 the starving childrettpf Uganda, the Italian earthquake victims scrabbling, for a few meager belongings or sitting in the rain, the Haitian refit ;pea' being moved from their tinv island shelter hack to the political situation they were fleeing from, , How much harder it would he to liveout those scenes, rather than just sit Warm and Safe and agonize over them. There is something to be thankful for in 1980, for us at least. We have our internal problems in Canada too, At this tinie last year, we were just beginning to get seriously concerned about the upcoming Quebec referendum, and whether or not the country wetfid remain together as one. Now here we are again, with, about the same problem, except that this time,, it's the West that wants to leave us. What's the matter? Doesn't anyone want to stay with good ole Ontario anymore? Have we been that offensive? We're a great country, but we must try to get along together, without cutting off anybody's oil supply, or fishing rights, pr' the privilege of landing at Mirabel airport. ORDINARY JOE On the home.front,The poor ordinary Joe is struggling along, trying to break even against high interest rates, galloping cost hikes, and racing inflation. There wasn't that much time to contemplate the consti- tution with the pressure on to succeed in a more competitive market place. Truly a choice between ulcers and hypertension for the little guy this year. But there were some good things to celebrate in the old year. You just have to .tek0 onle thee inOtne$413et the. best r even when it's overshadowed by gloom and doom, Terry For has been kanogred 'a Canada's Man of the Year, Athlete Of the Year, the Canadian Council Ayvard, and don't knew what else. Re certainly deserves them all, and any more that they cn find for hitn. What a feat of courage and determinatien his tranctinadiart nut was! Perhaps we shall remember the spirit that he showed, long after we cease to remember -the huge amount of Money that he raised for his cause. Thousands ofboat people are. now living in our country, working very hard to become ueeful valuable Canadian citizens in record time. When .you.see them, you're. always impressed by their drive to learn, , and their appreciation of the opportunities that this country holds for them. Surely this is much better than watching a• television picttire of a leaky boat on a far -away sea. Congratulations. Canada, you "did good" here. It was not the best of years. Perhaps we should consider it to be a "preceding year" Preceding what, you ask? Why, a better year, of course. We can't really control events occurring outside our country. but we can do a great deal to help inside our Canada, by buying Canadian, investing Canadian, supporting Canada, and further developing ties of friendship from province to province. We must stop accepting the idea of failure and inevitable benression, and work to develop what we have here, in 1981.

Seaforth man decorated Former Seafarth resident Clare Westcott has been decerated by the pope -although he is not a Catholic.
