New Year's Resolutions
Described as Religious Act
By LOUIS CASSELS
United Press International
It is time that someone put
in a good word for New
Year's resolutions.
Comic strip artists and TV
gag writers have almost lam
pooned this custom out of
existence.
Things have reached the
point where anyone who does
make a serious New Year's
resolution is ashamed to admit
it, lest he be greeted with
ridicule.
This is a pity, because there
is nothing inherently absurd
about pausing on the thresh
hold of a new year to take
stock of your life and habits

MEDFORD MAIL
On the contrary,- it is hard
to imagine a more profound
ly religious act.
Feels An Impulse
Anyone who does it with
reasonably honesty is bound
to feel an impulse to narrow
the gap between what he is
and what he knows he ought
to be.
There are three things you
can do about this impulse:
1. You can ignore it until
it goes away - which it will
do rather, quickly.
2. You can work it off by
making a lot of emotional
promises to live better."
3. You can translate it into
specific commitments and de
cisions. , .
The Rt. Rev. William F.
Creighton, Episcopal bishop
coadjustor of Washington,
D.C., believes that alternative
Number 2 is no better, and
perhaps worse, than Number
1.

TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE.
"People have become cyni
cal about New Year's resolu
tions because they are so
seldom kept," he said in an
interview. "And one reason
they are seldom kept is that
they are usually couched in
sweeping generalities."
Must Have Goal
The only kind of resolution
that is likely to have any real
impact on your life, Bishop
.Creighton said, is "one that
'commits you to a specific
course of action that is clearly
within your power to carry
out."
For example, he said, sup
pose that your conscience is
troubled about racial bias.
You aren't going to accom
plish much, if anything, with
a vow to eliminate prejudice
from your heart.
"But you might achieve that
end if you made and kept a
more modest resolution:
Namely, to establish real,
human relationships with par
ticular Individuals of another
race."
By the same token, the
bishop said, it would be an
Idle gesture to promise on
New Year's Day that you will
be "more devout" or "lead
a better Christian life" dur
ing 1961.
"If you really want to move
In that direction," he said,
"you will get farther by com
mitting yourself to specific
new habits of devotion and
obedience."
