THE REASSURANCE Tht year run out A few mora days and the chart we call the calendar begin a new cycle, another sequence of days to add up into weeks and months and, la the end, another year. Thus we mark It off, for man must count his hours and days and bring mathematical order, at least. Into hU life. So we come to a year's end, a place In time where we can pause for a moment and draw a total line and, If we would be honest try to reach a tally. Eut it is no more an ending than is a sunset Tomorrow comes, and another year be gins; and yesterday, last year, be queath! its unfinished business.

The wind does not pause oa the stroke of midnight nor are the stars altered in their courses. Even the clock which roan has made to count his seconds con tinues to tick them off, one by one. There are new beginnings, yes, new in the mind of man. He looks back and appraises the past, and knows that here is another unit ot nis time in wnicn 10 oo uose things to which his conscience drives him. Life itself is change, and here is a means of measuring that change.

Because he can think and remember and has the capacity for learning, man looks back for comparisons. He needs the re-assurknee, the belief, that comes from such a summing up. He needs the knowledge, of, time ahead. But no year ends on a calendar's page, for change is endless. Change knows no season nor numerical calculations.

And even those who would tie time to the sun and the stars must know that the nadir of the year is past the sun swings north again, days lengthen, and the season of life renewed, which we call spring, is already established in the earth as among the stars.
