fishing the psychology of time. Had
there been no days and no nights
there would be no clocks. The desire
to measure the hours of darkness and
daylight brought to man old age and
decay.
Without time we should pass for
ward in an Immortality of youth.
The world would be as young as when
the morning stars sang together.
Unfortunately we set this aside and
established time, that is, decay, death.
We wantonly ushered in old age, white
hairs, the sere and yellow leaf.
So we pass from 1912 to 1913.
Yet January /, 1913 is no different
from December 81, 1912.
No different and yet the one is a
year older than the other. When we
admit this we establish past, create
future, and narrow the present to a
breath of time so fleeing as to battle
measurement.
Still this fleeing breath is all we
have to call our own.
Having set up past we make poss-
ible backward looking. What do you
find strewn along the way you came
during the past 36 days?
Has it been canopied, cloaked,
fenced, paved, by Self?
In your backward glancing is it the
figure of yourself that looms largest?
The things you have done, said,
thought, been, are they hiding all the
rest? Or has there been no rest?
Then wipe out the past and set your
face to the future resolved that this
year at least you will go forward with
a companion, determined to forget in
deeds of love, the littleness Of your
poor soul
Are there acts of kindness, of hope,
Of charity, of love scattered along that
backward leading path? In humble
ness of heart be thankful and set your
face to the future with a fierce desire
GO make better what has been good.
Be not weary in we'll doing.
Make no resolves, give to yourself
no promises. To promise is to tempt
yourself to do the thing you wish to
avoid.
If you are old enough to resolve you
are old enough not to need to resolve
Nineteen-twelve was good year,
the best you ever lived. 1t brought
you tokens of friendship, tributes Of
affection, evidence of love.
Then you have not lived in vain.
No creature is useless or hopeless to
whom love has come
Talk of money making and politics
and strife and jealousy, and petty
back biting, but in the largeness of
your soul you know these things do
not count. You know that misunder-
stood motives and hidden purposes
have lead you often into false judg-
ments.
Now in the glory of the birth of a
new year take recognition of past
blindness and strive for future light.
Remember you are not going to be
saved or lost because of what you
think others may have meant to do
or did but because of what you your
self did,.
With this in mind move forward in
to the greatest and most delightful
year of your life, 1918.

returned from Africa the progressive
movement was far in advance of him.

1T left him stranded in the election

and he began to think of 1912 for him
self. He saw the uncertainty of 1912

Taft strength, and then feeling that
he could win against a democrat he
planned to displace the candidate
who was out against Mr. Taft and

BETTY BARROWS In
PLEASING ROLE

The Betty Barrows players in that
delightful farce Her Husbands 8
Wife" appealed to the laugh lovers of
Moscow last evening as never before.
Given a clever comedy the players got
the most out of it and the appreciative
audience was convulsed over the pre-
dicament of the sickly wife, played by
Betty Barrows, who had picked out a
plain" neighbor to mate with her
spouse after her demise. The neigh
Dor, when all was settled and done
did not appear so plain" and the
wife, feeling that she had a rival
pleasingly played by Miss Driscoll, de-
cided she wouldn't die. The play is
quiet, but most delightful comedy and
is well worth seeing.

the better, tor il shows the many op-

Colonel Roosevelt flatly denied that

mitted the contributions asserting
that the democrats had raised their
funds in = like manner He said:
