We’ll sin and sigh no more
Behind us all of sorrow,
And naught but joy before,

"TIME, YOU OLD GYPSY MAN” Every 12 months, as the earth
spins along its course, we fondly re-enact the cherished old conceit of
the aged and worn man, representing the Old Year, meeting for a
brief instant with his cherubic successor, the New Year. For In that
bit of make-believe are embodied the resolutions we would make for
ourselves, our faith in the future and our hope that things will be
better next year.

Driver's License
Deadline Dec. 31
Motorists who have failed to get
their 1950 driver’s license can avoid
a lot of trouble if they make sure
they purchase one before the close
of the year, it was pointed out this
week by licensing officials.
Any person who does not have his
license by December 31 must take
out a temporary permit before he
can procure the regular license. In
order to avoid the necessity of pur
chasing the temporary license and
taking the driving test it will be to
their advantage to buy a regular li
cense before the year ends.
