IN THE FACE The beginning of a New Year always appeals to the individual, who is easily, led into thinking that something new | really starts and affords an opportunity | for inaugurating better days for human} beings, governments and associations. | The attitude thus created is not with-! out value even if the illusion of beginning | over again must be made real by the labor ; of the person affected. The reader of this | tirely upon the will power, the stamina | and the courage of the party involved. Since there are, no doubt, hundreds | of people in Key West who will look for- ward to 1937 with bright hopes and high aspirations, it is not amiss to give them | some encouragement. There is no reason | why individuals should not take the New Year as a time for checking up, to weigh progress made and to plan advances for the future. Every man and every woman desires improvement and to dwell upon your own state in frankness with yourself is the first step forward. Throwing aside all the advanced talk of mental scientists it may be assumed thet the first duty of the individual is self-de- velopment. Properly understood, this in- cludes all the rest of the program. The person who develops properly is able to understand others and to make himself, or herself, understood in a world that is com- plex with problems and confused with er- ror. It is an achievement that few of us realize. We believe it is a good plan to give a few hours to self-analysis regularly and New Year’s day is apt to find us in such a mood. As a practical method, let us sug- gest that you write down, for your private contemplation, a list of vices and virtues, making a sort of ‘balance sheet of your personal qualities. When you have done this, study the results a bit. Spread out a little further and include a listing of your activities in your com- munity. Put down in writing, if you will, the names of the local organizations that, you think, deserve your support and, also, the operations in your area that do not, in your opinion, deserve your sanction. When you finish, check up on your contribution, in service or cash, to make these agencies function. It will give you an idea of what lies ahead of you. You should not fail to note that you are a complex human being, with three phases intermingled to make a_ person. What of your physical condition? What of your mind? What of your spiritual| nature? Are you conscious of re- cent improvement in any line or does} frustration register as you contemplate what might have been? Anyway, look at the report frankly and make up your mind. It is the step toward getting somewheres. No personal inventory would be com- plete without some analysis of your use of time and money. Time is the essence of life, as someone has well said, and most of us waste much of it without ever thinking that we are spending life itself. Money, a necessary commodity under present civil- ization, often assumes strange forms in our thinking and therefore we fail to es- tablish a correct personal relationship to it. Time and money, vital to every life, should not be confusing but both will bother us unless we do some clear think- Anyway, as 1937 gets underway there should be some realization of the duty in- volved in developing our individual per- sonalities to the highest possible level, a desire to understand, as far as we may, the task assumed and a firm determina- tion to make progress toward the goal in the days that stretch before, us.

All of the victims were Negroes. There were two lynchings in Arkansas, one in Florida, five in Georgia and one in Mis- sissippi. si THE KEY WEST CiTIZEN GOOD RIDDANCE!
