THE NEW YEAR.

Julia Ward Howe no believer in New Years
resolutions 1--WE should make and keep good
resolutions all the year round" the celebrated
author once said in Boston. 81 am no great be-
lever in New Years VOWS, for, although they are
splendid things, they really don't amount to much
more than Oliver Wendell Holmes tobacco reso-
luton.
"Mr. Holmes, with affected gravity, said to a
friend on the first day of the year: I really must
not smoke so persistently; l must turn over a
new leaf-a tobacco leaf-and have cigar only
after each'-here he paused as if to say meal
but he continued-'after each cigar"

His Only Possession.

Al Rogers was travelling through a
lonely section in the suburbs of Bos-
ton one night, short while ago, when
he was startled by hearing this pite-
Gus appeal:
"Will the kind gentleman please
help poor unfortunate man? +"
At this point Al felt to locate his
watch. The other continued:
II have nothin' in the world but this
loaded revolver"

A CASUAL OBSERVATION.

I'VE are living in an age of exceptional cul-
ture," said the woman with angular features
'Mebbe we are" said Farmer Corntossel But
1 can't help noticin' that people walk right up to
the news stand to buy some pretty fluffy stuff,
while it takes a mighty good book agent to work
off set of Shakespeare"

is another custom observed at this time, which is
called among us mumming; which is a changing
of clothes between men and women; who when
dressed in each others habits go from neigh
boris house to another, and make merry with
them in disguise, by dancing and singing, and
such like merriments. It were to be
wished this custom which is still common
among us at this of the year were laid
aside; it is directly opposite to the word of
God"
1t is possible that "mumming' is related in
some way to the performance which marked Hog
manay" in England and Scotland. "Hogmanay'
was the last day of the year Some scholars think
the word comes from the Greek "agia mene,"
Choly month";; others from the Saxon "halg
monath," which has the meaning still others
from the French phrase eau gui menez" ("to the
mistletoe go!") which mummers anciently cried
in France at Christmas, from eau gueux
menez," CBring to the beggars!O. Whatever the
origin of the word may be, Hogmanay was the
time for much amateur begging.
The children went from house to house, singing
such songs

But none of your grey,
Hogmena, Hogmena,
Give us cake and cheese and let us go
away"
AS they sang they collected what they called
their "farls"-oaten cake and cheese From this
developed the letting in" of the new year. Par
ties of men and boys went through the town. They
stopped at the front door of every house and sang
until they were admitted. Then they received
small gift of money went through the house and
left by the back door. That should be the
first visitor of the year was general belief in
the British isles for centuries, nor is it yet ex-
tinct.
In Scotland the ceremony of "frst-footing' has
almost entirely died out, but in some of the rel
moter parts of that country it is pleasantly re-
membered At the approach of 12 on New Years
"hot pint prepared. This kettle
of spiced or sweetened ale, with a liberal
infusion of spirits When the clock struck every
member of the family drank to the new year.
Then the elders of the family went out into the
street, carrying the kettle of spiced ale and
supply of buns, cakes, bread, and cheese. When
they met party of friends similarly engaged,
they stopped to exchange greetings and sips of
ale They went to the houses of their neighbors,
sent the kettle from friend to friend, and spent
the hours before dawn in socability and good
cheer If they the first to enter house after
ceived especial favor.
In England the frstfooting parties were made
up generally of the poor boys of the village who
carried 'wassail-bowl" decorated with ribbons,
and received in return for their proffered drinks
and good wishes, cakes and cups of ale. But in
Scotland as recently 100 years ago frstfooting
was democratic social institution, in which few
too proud to share. The principal streets
of Edinburgh, it is said were more crowded be-
tween twelve and one New Years day morning
than at noon business days
simple ceremony, not yet obsolete, consisted
in unbarring the front door as the clock struck
twelve, to let the old year out and the year
in. In the Island of Guernsey the children paraded
the streets carrying the effgy of man. embe-
matte of the dying year. This they buried at
midnight on the seashore, with elaborate ritual.
At Burghhead in Morayshire, they kept New
Years eve by Burning the clavie." They made
huge piles of herring barrels, and set fire to them
with peat. The burning embers they carried home
to their houses protection against whatever
evils the year might bring.
On New Years day the Scotch of bygone gen.
erations believed fire should go out of the
house. If it were given, misfortune might be pre-
sented by throwing burning peat into tub of
water
There is something suggestive of the Russian
Easter in one "frst-footing" custom once popular
The Winslow mail., 1915-01-02

IR grandfathers did not give up $50
each for the privilege of spending
New Years eve in crowded restaur-
ants. Neither did they, at the stroke
of twelve, put on caps of colored
paper, ring COW bells, and throw con-
fetti at strangers. Yet we, who ridi-
cule their traditions and superstitions,
can find, it seems, no more satisfac-
tory way in which to speed the old
year and welcome the new.

JOHN A. JOYCE.

Ye voices Of nature make softest your tune!
comrade has passed from our daily commune
man who to nature and Man was q friend,
Fer ready bis strength to the needy to lend.
The strains from Parnassus sweet to his ear,
And live In his verses Of beauty and cheer.
The songs Of the rights of the lowly he sang,
And. true to his heart, ever bravely they rang.
No more may we list to his musical speech
And sallies Of wit to the points he would reach;
The angels have met him and sped him away,
To rest In the brightness of heavenly day.
How much we will miss him whenever we meet,
As voices unseen seem his songs to repeat
God bless him and make all eternity's days
For him one grand anthem Of glory and praise!
