A Great American Passes On
With the passing of former President Harry S. Truman
last week, a great American goes to his reward.
It is difficult to determine how future history will treat
Harry Truman. A controversial President during his time in
office, much of the work he did is still being assessed and
evaluated, but the entire world will remember him as a true
fighter, a man who perhaps more than any President in modern
times, embodied the spirit of the great American dream. Not
outstanding in his career before he was suddenly left at the
helm of the United States, President Truman was faced with
some of the most difficult and most world-shaking decisions
of any man in modern history.
He accepted the responsi
bility and although many of his decisions were controversial,
he showed the strength of will to stand behind his convictions
and follow out a course whether it was popular or not.
Coming up through the ranks as an “average" American
citizen with an interest in leadership, President Truman was
Perhaps one of the expressions he
an unabashed politician,
will be best remembered for referred to the life of a poli-
tician, when Truman remarked that if a candidate “can’t stand
the heat, he’d best stay out of the kitchen.’’
Although Harry S. Truman’s position in history may be
insecure at this point, his place in the hearts of Americans is
secure. All the world admires a man of courage, and that was
the quality most exemplified by Harry S. Truman’s life.
A great American has passed on.

LETTER
TO EDITOR
Editor, The Journal:
Happy New Year to each of
you and your staff!
I liked my ad, and enjoyed
each of the greeting ads in your

really know.
No snow here, believe it or
not. We had a wind and dust

10 YEARS AGO
Monday, Dec. 31, 1962 was
an eventful day in the life of
Aden Wilson. That was the last
day for him at Wilson’s Super
Market after 46 12 years of
continuous
work with Wilson
Stores in Nyssa.
He has sold his interest to
the Wilson brothers and retired
to his home at 429 North Third
Street tn Nyssa. Aden came to
Nyssa from Tennessee in 1913
and at the age of 15, began
work June 1, 1916, for Wilson

by Harriet V. Turner
Old father winter came to visit us today.
With a gust of his icy Ho-Ho.
He huffed and puffed over our land,
Leaving a mantle of beautiful snow.
With an artists brush he painted the trees,
In new dresses of silvery white.
Ice covered toughs crackle a tinkling sound,
Winters song of cheery delight.
On the chairs and tables in the park.
He sculptured shapely patterns of white.
In the estatic beauty of the waterfall,
We pause and vie» the magnificent sight.

Our footsteps echo through the snow.

As we tread on the snowy diamonds rare.
Round the fireside brilliant glow,
We forget its a time of cold and chill.
God gave us each season for us to enjoy.
Winter is a time for Peace and Good Will.
