• THINGS I WISH I ' D KNOWN AT 21.

That my heal'th after thirty depended in a Tiarge degree on what I put

into my stomach before I was twenty- one.

How to take care of money.

That a man's habits are mighty hard to change after he is- t vrenty- one .

That harvest dep·ends upon the seed· eoJWn.

That things worthwhile require time , patience and w~k.

That you cannot get something far nothing.

That value o~ absolute truthfulness in everything.

The folly of not taking old.er people ' s advice.

That what my Mother wanted me to, dry was right .

That Dad wasn't an old fo-gy afterall .

Candles burn out, but purposes continue through, as the glowing flame of the old lights the taper of the new.

"Another year - 1976 - another door Through which we have not walked before." And another clipping I wish to share with you is called, Beginning Again. •A Brand new year, the old is done, Another chance for everyone. New hopes, new dreams, are ours once more, The past becomes a closing door. We Face ahead with heads held high, New courage comes as days swing by, Whatever grief engulf& the heart, Somehow we smile with this new start. A brand new year, the old is done Another chance f or everyone."
