The NewneSS Of the Year

some still vacant and other marred
and. perhaps, here and there blotted
with tears, may be put away, and
fresh, unstained pages substituted in
their place. II Ia helpful to remind one
self that those broken resolutions OF
1908 may be renewed in 1909 and.
what is better, reinforced by more OF
that prayer and divine grace for want
of which the idealizing resolves of the
past year were soon forgotten or went
so sadly unfulnlled. The new year
means, accordingly, new hope, new
song, a new endeavor, a new outlook.
new inspiration. new determine
ton and a new grace-every new
thing that is good appears to be posi-
bic in its gift. A hope like this makes
am doubter optimistic. and gives to
existence the character of a life worth
living.
A wide chasm seems TO intervene
between the old and the new. Into its
depths should be cast every regret.
every hating doubt, and every ham
pering fear which belongs to the past
period of our experience and which
would burden and hinder our worthy
efforts and spiritual progress in the
new year. Let us take up our new
duties and meet our fresh opportunl-
ties In free, gladstone and hopeful
spirit, knowing that God, who has pur-
posed them for our uplift, will give
us grace TO carry us safely through.
Happy New Yearl The message Is
sent far and near. Let the glad greet
ing be heard on all sides There Is a
prophecy and promise in the New
Year Even to thoi.e who are bent with
grief, or lonely b. reason Of bitter
Bereavement It Is rcssibie and timely
TO say, though with lowered tone and
softened accent: Happy New Year"
Every year will be a happy, or at
least, a peaceful. one Ia which thei
presence Of the Lord is realized
which is spent under the protection Oh
his wings, while its duties are dis
charged in his fear and its responsible
tiles are borne with the assistance OF
his grace. For the Christian every
year should be an improvement on tho \
past. and offer its additional oppor
tuniiies for growing in grace ant
Christlikeness. The Christian Is a
convinced and convincing optiuist
for. having heavenly hope which thes
world can never give or take away
he can IN every condition Of life ind
q basis for an assured happiness ex-
pressing itself in the oft-quoted del
tum. THE best OF all IS. God Is

The commission in carrying forward
this great work has kept in view the
purpose of preserving the features of
the battlefield they were during the
battle and also rendering all parts of II
accessible. particularly to military peo-
pie and others making a study of the
positions and movements of the troops
To that end they have been careful not
to have deep cuts and high embank-
ments made i'm the construction of a road
or avenue. but rather to preserve the
grade by curving the lines to conform
more nearly to the contours of the
ground.

A Blow at Some Militiamen.
Sharp criticism has been made to the
War Department regarding the conduct
and dress of some of the personal aids
and military secretaries of the governors
Of certain states. on the occasion of the
recent joint maneuvers of regulars and
militia. One official report made by a
well known army officer detailed to duty
with the National Guard of an unnamed
state last summer contains the following
interesting paragraph:
AS to the military secretaries and aids.
their chief duties consist in personal at

Conditions in Luzon.
That the action of Congress in increas-
ing the pay of the army Will result in
promoting greater contentment and will
add TO it's efficiency is the sentiment ex-
pressed by the officers commanding vari-
Gus departments in their annual reports.
Nowhere will this be more In evidence.
Gen. A l.. Mills, commanding the De-
partment of Luzon, believes, than in the
grade of non-commissioned officer In line
with other department commanders Gen
Mills emphasizes again the desirablilty OF
continuing efforts to secure legislation
for additional officers to replace those on
detached duty.
Recommendation is made by Gen Mills
for u more liberal policy In supplying
troops in the Philippines with apples.
American oranges. lemons and grape fruit,
and with sugar-Cured meats Oh1cerS and
men crave the fruits mentioned. and su-
gar-cured meats are more palatable than
the salt-cured meats The present ar
rangement for furnishing the supplies Is
most unsatisfactory. The health condi-
tons OF the Department of Luzon show
an Improvement over that OF last year,
the greater percentage of sickness arising
from malaria and other preventable dis
eases. Colored troops suffer more from
diseases than white troops and therefore
seem not as well fitted constitutionally
for service in the tropics as white troops.
Among the recommendations made by
Gen Mills is that until absolute prohibit
ton becomes actual fact throughout
the UNIFIED States post exchanges be given
the right TO furnish beer to soldiers when
such refreshment is desired.
To Mark Soldiers Clothing.
II is now planned to mark all the cloth
ing issued to enlisted men of the army
with the names of the soldiers to whom
II is issued Although there is no speci-
fic legislative authority for such action.
the judge advocate general has given an
opinion that il may be done without vio-
lation OF the law or the regulations. Just
what method will be followed in marking
the individual clothing Of about 1000 men
