What most people fail to under-
stand is that any lasting joy and
contentment isn’t going to come
from what’s around them — their
earthly possessions. They're look-
ing in the wrong places for what
they really want.
What all of us are really search-
ing for is something we can't even

Cancer Society meets
The Lee County Chapter of the
American Cancer Society met
April 5 to discuss the needs in the

With interest shown, meetings
will be organized April 18 at 7
p.m. in the First National Bank
Community Room. Anyone inter-

Denice Harlan at 542-0813. April
is Cancer Awareness Month.

If you asked most people what
would make them happy, they
would more than likely give you a
list of items. Maybe a new car or
new house, some fancy jewelry or
clothes, or just lots of money.
