At this time of year many of us enjoy Christmas songs that convey beautiful thoughts. Joy is the transcending theme as it should be, celebrating for all regardless of faith or private beliefs - a theme of renewal. It is especially appropriate at this time of year that our enduring hope be one of peace, certainly for ourselves here in Garden City, but also for all the people on Earth. That our common goal this special season will be "Peace on Earth, Good Will Toward Men." Mayor Barbara K.
