The Clinton News Record, 1933-12-28, Page 6r+ • And Sunday will see the end of his year -1933. Whether we've us, d it well or wasted. it, it will be lone beyond i+scall. It is a good thing that the end of Ate year should be marked—that e reason comes when we can look back end see how imany false and foolish moves the have made. But, after all, it is not well to spend' too much time looking .back. It is forward we should ibe looking. The only advantage to be gained from looking back is. the pleasure of exercising the memory and use we can make of any experiences lived through to improve in the future. Looking back with fruitless and fool- ish regrets is nothing leis than a waste of time, but may be a good deal more. . It may have • the effect of unfitting us for the serious work of living which lies ahead. The coining of a new year brings its own work, its own duties, its own respon- sibilities. If we are to meet them with proper courage and perform them with any sort of success we -cannot waste time regretting the past. Tomorrow is a "new day, bringing its own responsibility, we shall "axe 'to face it with what courage we can, `letting the dead past bury its dead. OU over. Hope, to you.
