Becausethecouldswim, three lives were saved from drowning in a swift current of Sacramento river near here Friday when a small motorboat upset without a moment's warning and threwHylandHinman,Wil- liam M. Norvell and Dr. F. B. Godbolt, hunters, into the stream. The accident hap- pened in Iron Canyon, six milesnortheastofRedBluff, where the current is strong. Godboltwhowasdrivinghis own boat, sought to plow through the rapids. But the instant the nose of the boat struck there, it was turned quickly to one side and en- gulfed by a wave. All three young men were submerged before they hardly realized what oc- curred. Almost simultane- ously they appeared on the surface and began to swim toward the east shore which was not far distant. Good swimmersastheywere,they experienced some difficulty in reaching the shore as each was dressed for winter weatheranditwasheavygo- ing. Arriving safely on land, and soaked to the skin, they were chilled through. — Jan. 2, 1925 90YEARSAGO...

With ea- ger anticipation, we have longed for the dawn- ing of this year since our emer- gence on to this planet, unsure, new- born and na- ked, yet with all possibilities untapped. At that instant, of course we could not know that this particular year, this one — these next 365 days — would be the days for which we have so yearned. But as sure as Life foisted upon us this place; it is certainty. Reach forth your arms with outstretched ea- ger fingers opened wide; it is time to embrace our mo- ment. This is not another time for making tired should- lists of worn, half-hearted resolutions imposed heav- ily upon you by guilt and shame; only to be tossed aside in short order. It is a crossroads in the his- tory of your life. It is your personal year; soft, warm, fresh clay, eager to be sculpted to your fancy. It matters not how many attempts previ- ously fell short of the mark. The tools now in your grasp are newly forged, with every previ- ous endeavor serving only to mold them for what now lies at your feet. In front of you is an un- marked, pure, white, pris- tine meadow blanketed in newly drifted snow. Since no paths are marked, none can be incorrect. No direction leads to failure. Every bearing, any route is equally promising. All are bursting with unlim- ited opportunities. Everything you ever did; every impulse or thought powerful enough to trigger feelings to leap and bound across the synapses and recesses of your brain; every action you undertook, whether planned or accidental; the culmination of all the schemes and strategies you have concocted or conjured; all of that, ev- ery one, have driven you to this fateful position. It is your year. It is your time. There will be no more delay. Why would anyone choose to delay? Doubt will raise itself into view; a misguided attempt to protect your from pain. But to become who we truly are, we must grow and push. Change is never comfortable, but it is inevitable. It is better to embrace it, direct it, drive it; than to once again we left crushed and bewil- dered in its wake. You will face obstacles, times of doubt, and in- security; you might even slide backwards. But this is your life; how can you be lost? After all, who knows better than you where you are headed? In those seeming darker moments, are seeds of strength, wisdom, and perseverance. In these next twelve months, lying long and outstretched ahead of you, you can achieve mag- nificence. You can once and for all accomplish tasks that — in your past — eluded you like trying to recall the wisps of last night's faded dreams. You can transport your life to unimagined heights; standing atop mighty summits, peering trium- phantly over previously unknown landscapes. Be- fore this year has reached its ending, you can look back in wide-eyed, slack- jawed, heart-stopping amazement at what you truly accomplished and how far you have come, one step at a time. This is your year. This is your time. Right now is your moment. You must merely step into it.
