E NEW YEAR IS GIVEN BY FIRST BAPTIST PASTOR Rev. W. A, Dawes of the First Baptist church, took as his subject Sunday, "The Secret of a Happy New Year." He said the old expres sion "Hnppy New Year," was the sincere desire of the pastor and his wife. "A year of blessings of God beyond your expectation. "Some think happiness is an abundance of material things, at tainment of a goal, pursuit of some activity. Real happiness goes beyond outward things; It depends on an inward condition. "The secret of a happy year ts found In Phil. 4:6-7. 'Be careful for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving let your requests e made known unto God. And th. peace of God which pasef-h all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." After explaining thlB passage he closed with the words "God keeps his promise. Only the Christian can know this peace." The evening subject wis "Mile posts On the Highway of Life." "Wo all -can look back to mile posts in our lives and are watch ing for the mlleposts as we ' Journey on." the pastor said.
