Topic-Ths duty OF making good reso-
lutions.-Acts ri. 1S-zs: Josh. xiv. l4-2S.
(Consecratton meeting-)
The advisability Of making good
resolutions, especially At the beginning
Of a new year. has for q long time
been debated. In many quarters such
resolutions have been made the sub
jects Of jest and of joke. Neverthe-
less they continue year after year.
which demonstrates that deep down
In the human heart there Is something
good and that there are times when
the good rises above the evil and as
serts its purpose to reign supreme in
the heart and life. No one truly in
terested in the best good of mankind
can afford to mock at such a condi-
ton or to deny the power Of such ex-
periences in the life Of man. II kept
for but q time some good is always
accomplished. and II kept permanently
the good il eternal and usually re-
suits in the salvation of the soul. The
expediency and profit of good resolu-
tons cannot therefore be denied. But
the topic goes still further and de-
SAdtC0 luok lAS dAAA6 VI 6oOu AGoO-
lutions Is a duty, debt, an obliga-
ton owed to ourselves and to our
God. This also is true and capable of
being proved.

cause they are absolutely necessary
to moral and spiritual advancement.
No bad habit can be broken unless
we first resolve to break it. No ad-
vancement can be made in the spirit.
ual life without our determining that
we will advance. The prodigal son
was In 4 far country. facing a disas-
trous MISREPRESENTATION. In his IA
theirs house there was plenty. He
desired to 90 home and resolved that
he would CO. II will arise and go to
my father" He kept his resolution,
for he arose and went" This reso-
luton was an essential element in his
return and restoration. without it he
would have starved to death. We
ought to be in the proper relation to
God our Father and His house. II we
are not it is our duty to resolve to be-
come 50. II we are INDUCING in evil
habits they should be broken of, and
to produce such results we must re-
solve In our hearts that we will do SO.
2. Good resolutions are a duty be.
cause God requires them of us. God
believes in good resolutions, even If
some men do make light Of them. We
have many Instances in Gods word
where good resolutions are set forth
AZ a duty. Every call Of God is a
duty. Through Joshua He called upon
Israel to resolve to give up idolatry.
Through Barnabas He exhorted the
Christians OF Antioch to purpose or
to resolve In their hearts to cleave
unto the Lord. He calls upon us to
choose Christ, to decide for Him, to
resolve in our hearts to love and
serve Him. This duty should be
pressed home especially at this time
Of the year. Make a resolution in IA.

ry that. when the trip was first pro-
to attempt to dissuade him from TAX
ing it at this time. In the first place
Mr.. Taft is large man. he Is subject
to those ailments that frequently over
take men of his bulk and great activi-
ty. and while having the appearance
of enjoying robust health. he has not
fully recovered from the effects Of his
recent strenuous campaign.
This explains Why the navy depart
ment will provide for the journey .
vessel OF the size OF the North Carroll
ma. On a battle ship of the type OF
this one. with the weather ordinarily
mild, he will be able to make the voy-
age quickly and with far more comfort
than were the vessel smaller and lees
seaworthy. The North Carolina can
steam the distance between Norfolk.
the probable port Of departure. and
the isthmus in six days. making
twelve days for the sea trip and allow
ing Mr.. Taft two or three days for his
inspection of the canal work. Mean
time the president-elect will remain In
Augusta. Ga. preparing himself for
the strenuous days ahead.
Argument Asainss Trip.
Another argument against Mr.. Tan
taking his proposed Panama trip Is
that in the event Of his death there 10
no provision for a successor to the
presidency. II is true the country at
large regards Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Sher-
man as respectively president-elect
and vice president elect. They are
not yet strictly president and vice
president elect. but they will be before
| the date of MT. Taft's departure.
The point is that there seems \ very
broad legal distinction between
president-elect and a president In fact.
The constitution and congressional en-
actment provide for the succession in.
case of the death of the president. but
the best legal minds can find NO con-
stitutional method for filling the office
in case the president-elect should die
before taking the oath Of office. Sec
rotary of State Root, the legal light
| of the administration. has been asked
TO wrestle with the problem. but he
has not yet announced solution.
AS to Mr.. Taft. he is the least con-
cerned of anyone. apparently. over
this question. When it's reasonable
ness was suggested to him not long
ago. he merely smiled and said 1t was
a problem he would leave for others
to solve. Anyway. he didn't propose
1t should spoil the pleasure OF his trip.
This is Characteristic Of the man. He
will 60 to Panama. and he will bring
back volumes OF interesting informa
I ton about this costly project that will
be valuable to congress and to the
American people.

MONUMENT FOR COMPOSER
OF "BEAUTIFUL WILLAMETTE

Portland (SpeciaD-A movement
has been started to erect at Salem a
suitable monument to the memory of
Samuel L. Simpson, the well-known
Oregon poet. who wrote Beautiful
Willamette" Mr.. Simpson was an al
umnus of Willamette University and
III was thought fitting that the move
ment to procure the memorial to the
poet should have its start at the uni
versity and that the monument should
stand near it. An association for the
purpose has been formed among the
alumni of the university. 1t is intend
cd to interest the entire Northwest in
the movement
