THE YEAR AHEAD
Now that the excitement of the coming of the New Year has subsided and the wishes for prosperity and happiness in 1947 have been exchanged it would be well for us all to realize that what the next 12 months bring forth will largely depend on what we put into them.
We are inclined to attribute much of what transpires in our personal lives and in the life of our Nation to luck or to forces beyond our control. But, in the final analysis, we are more the masters of our fate than we sometimes care to admit.
In 1947 we must get "down to earth" and tackle our problems.
We can't afford to sit around and someone else to solve us. Nor can we expect messmen in Washington to build up magic tricks in eco-men for our benefit.
A little common sense and a lot of hard work will do more to make 1947 the kind of a year we want it to be than all the wishing or wailing we can do about it. Why not try it?
NO FISH BUT A STORY
Seems the fish were not hungry at Lake Mead or were too busy admiring John Craddock's new fiber glass boat to bite last week. Anyway, Craddock and his son, Dr. William Craddock of San Diego, angled without success but returned with the limited bucks and geese for consolation and cooking.

Farm Bureau In Safety Drive
Directors of the Orange County Farm Bureau have again displayed their interest in highway safety. Commendatory letters have been issued to law enforcement and other bodies of the area for their vigilance and attitudes have been considered as largely responsible for the lack of accidents in Orange county during the New Year's holidays.
The farm Bureau is taking a leading part in a campaign to reduce highway accidents and has centered its attention upon reckless and drunk driving. The letter sent to several agencies in the community as a result of the action of the board at their monthly meeting reads as follows:
"Speaking for the membership of the Orange County Farm Bureau, a group of approximately 2850 farm families and representing about 12,000 people of our county, we wish to express appreciation for the activities and attitudes of law and enforcement officials in relation to reckless driving, including drunk driving, as evidence during the recent New Year's holiday season. We call attention to the fact that there were notable results in lack of accidents. Included in the praise must be the general public, who through their support have given strength to the enforcement officials."
"It is our high desire that this same strict attitude and interest in enforcement of the laws relating to driving on the highways shall continue throughout the year. We believe that this would be very effective in preventing deaths and other losses from this source in our community."
"It seems apparent that the tremendous and grievous losses that we have been suffering from reckless driving, including drunk..."
