your own numb Der has said:
ut is wrong to believe, as some
would have us, that opportunity
comes once to every man. MOI
matter what our position in life
may be, each new day holds higher
and better possibilities for u.s."
If this be true of each day, how
much more should the coming
year hold the promise of improve

good time to ask ourselves this
question: "What motive has gov

what shall control it in the future?"
There are only a few fundamental
purposes that govern our lives. If
we have held any one of them
and failed, then it is a good time,
at the threshold of the new year,
to take stock and find out just why
we have not realized our ambi-
tons. If [ could sit with each
one of you in the quietude of your
cell, [ could tell you much of how
others have steadily trudged up the
incline of success. They have
reached the hilltop Of hope, faith,
honor and character. [ would

"that there is way for the mean

purity and nobility, in spite of
adverse circumstances"

hard to hope. [ realize that at
times the shadows are sure to
creep across our hearts, and they

sympathy. But l know, too, that

BY the grace OF his exceIlency ]. Charles
Dahlman, mayor OF Omaha, today will
be a legal holiday for all democrats resid-
ing in the city and holding allegiance to
his honor"
For today is the day of the long
heralded and twice deferred picnic OF the
Dahlman Democracy club.
Rain or shine, the picnic will be held
this time, announces the mayor, who
places great confidence in a committee on
the weather, which reports fair" for
Saturday. The picnic was to have been
held July 5, but it rained. Then It
was TO have been held July IS, but again
it ra1ned. Some loyal Jims thought the
fates were against them, but Harry Hay
ward said the trouble was that committees
had been appointed on everything but the
weather and good weather could not be
expected without a weather committee.
Such a committee was then appointed and
1t is this committee which sanctions the
Saturday picnic.
Also, Local Weather Forecaster Welsh
announces fair and cooler" for Saturday.
Many and great will be the Stunts at
the Jim picnic which will be held at Sey-
mour lake park all day, even continuing
after S o'clock in the evening. Boss Flynn
says that all the events will be headliners,
but the mayor will lay claim TO be the
drawing card, though honors may nave to
be divided with Comptroller Lobeck.
