May be alright whgre there is (By Mrs. R.

When considering the types of pension plans for farmers, the Forums Were one third in favor of a private plan.

Miss Judy Royale, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Royale, of 6 Blain Drive, Don Mills gave a linen shower at the home of her The one force that this year of 1960 needs more than anything else is love. It is the only creative and constructive force in the world. Hate, whether it be between nations or individuals is destructive, and hate at the present time can destroy the world. The Christmas song of yesterday promised peace to men of goodwill, and fulfillment of this promise alone can avert world tragedy. If hate wins out, it may well be. that there will be no more Christmases and each New Year, an everlasting nightmare as well as a monument to the foolishness of mankind. No nation is any better than the individual fam- ilies that compose it. If the primitive family bicker- ings, jealousies and resentments cannot be resolved be- tween its members, the general health of the family will suifer. The governing bodies of each village, town, city, province and country are made up of individuals whose home base is usually the family. If the pattern of their home living is revealed in their public life by means of backbiting, name calling or dishonesty of busi- ness practices, the general health of the country suffers also. These are delicate subjects perhaps but who can honestly deny that corrupt conditions exist in one form or another. The year 1960 will not be a year for sugar coating the evils that exist nor will it be a blind for the dangers that may be latent in its tomorrows. The say- ing, “everybody does it” is used by- many to justify their actions. The standards of others are never a proper measure for any individual. The gospel of love has been the greatest insight into the real nature of things that the world has ever known. Let love be the answer. the Peace and Goodwill of the Son of man. Everything that is good in the world has been the direct result of this altruistic love, and its lack has been the cause of most of its sorrows. It is the custom to make good resolua tions at this time of year. Add one more, about loving your neighbor as yourself, and if you don’t like yourself. make one more. Get to like yourself too. Tu'elve golden months until the very end! by Elizabeth Kelson We are standing at the threshold of a brand new year. This year to come is 1960, a gift that God has given us to do with as we please. Twelve golden months, a very precious gift indeed. We shall be rewarded, each to his desire, according to the way we use this good gift today. It will be during this year of- promise and hope which will decide whether we pave the way for the greater gift of 1961. ~ jAOI/Lth‘ anal oug Thornhill Notes supplemented by the old age pension should provide for re- tirement .
