Promise Yourself
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your
peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every
person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is some-
thing in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make
your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the
best, and expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of
others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to
the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and
give every living creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of your-
self that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too
strong for fear and too happy to permit the presence
of trouble.

Maybe it’s our imagination, but we don’t seem to
hear as much these days about “New Year resolutions
as we once did. Maybe it’s because everybody is too
busy trying to fill the old ones! But if there is one,
good, all-round, ready-to-measure resolution for 1971,
the long-standing creed of the Optimists International
could serve as a pretty good model. It reads:

At this time of the year it
is customary to have a New
Year’s editorial, and usually
it deals with events of the
year past, prospects for the
year ahead, or the perishab-
ility of New Year’s resolu-
tions.
This year we found what
we think is a more approp-
riate subject in a terse com-
ment made by a refugee
from Cuba some time ago.
This man, an ex-cab driver
from New York, went to live
in Cuba before Castro took,
over. His comment, upon
setting foot on US soil:
“I wouldn’t live in Castro's
Cuba if they gave me a dol-
lar for every minute I spend
there.”
The refugee, Puerto Rican-
born Amerigo Puig, then ex-
plained his distaste for the

There was a boy in
Scotland who awakened from
his sleep one night, crying.
"My sins - I must give an
account to God But I can't.
I’m afraid!"
His family tried to
comfort him, but failed.
Later one told him that God
loved him and sent His Son to
be his Saviour. Believing, he
exclaimed, “I'm not afraid of
God now.” “Why?” asked a

ped him of $25,000, his life
savings, which he had saved
while working in New York.
But that was only part of it.
Food, which Cuba once ex-
ported, is so scarce that peo-
ple have to rely on the
black market where a chick-
en worth $2 cost $10, where
rice is officially listed at 19
cents a pound but costs
$2.25, and where meat is
quoted at 35 cents a pound
but costs $5.

ing relatives still in Cuba.
Which is pretty eloquent
testimony of a silent nature.
The moral, in the form of
a New Year’s resolution for
1971: “Let’s defend and
strengthen the wonderful
system that has been given
us, and cherish it, each and
every one."
We bring these things up
as a reminder that when
comparisons are made, the
United States is pretty
wonderful. And when com-
parisons are made with
countries with a socialistic
form of government, whether
it’s the British type, the
Swedish "middle way," or
the brutal type found in the
USSR, China or Cuba - the
United States is a vertiable
paradise, for citizens of all
creeds and colon.
