' HOPE and PROMISE IKE all other American communities, ours has felt in full measure the impact of a year that for the most part has been filled with the desolation that is war. Yet even such somber days cannot wholly detract from the joy that the New Year traditionally echoes. For in this New Year of 1943, as always, is born anew —the HOPE and PROMISE of ths ages. HOPE that our world will in the coming year be made a better place in which men may live and PROMISE that with free men aligned on the side of right—such HOPE cannot help but be fulfilled. Blood has been spilled by our sons to weight emphasis on such HOPE and PROMISE. To those American boys who have perished in the wilds of Bataan, in the depths of the seven seas, and on the reefs of the Pacific's coral islands, must we dedicate ourselves in the coming year. We must pledge ourselves to the cause that the loss of these heroes will surely result in humanitarian gain for the more fortunate world which now benefits from their acts. 1943 must be a constant, living fulfillment of such a pledge. E.. this is-why these men of ours have died: That our country and the world may face the New Year—and évery day—with the everlasting HOPE PHOW AIOUT ME, MOM?—Baby kmunnuso-thhwmflow:hnm muU.&m:w.ner.NmYuhlw-m.mAm and PROMISE of freedom filled days oheud .in 1943 and unhl 'he end of time.
