SWEAR ON.
Why swear off on New Years
day?

Why swear off on New Year.
day?
Why not swear on7
We've been swearing off year after
year on the years birthday and the
world doesn't seem. to be grea,
deal better for these good resolu-
tons.
so why swear off at all--and
why not swear on?
Swearing off Is a New Years cele-
bration from which good folks are
barred, but swearing on is a priv
iiege which the good as well as the
not so good may share.
The man who neither drinks nor
swears and is nice to his mother-in-
law has little to swear Off but there's
plenty for him to swear on to. He
could, for instance, swear on to pub
lie spirit, brotherly love and consider
alton for the man who has less than
he has.
The woman who shuns Bossips,
idleness and frivolty has nothing
worth while To swear off-but she
could swear on to gentleness, sym
pathy for the unfortunate, tender
ness to children.
The swearing on habit Is just as
good for the poor rich man" as for
the man who hasn't much of the
worlds goods. It's u good habit for
the youngsters and better habit for
grOwn-ups.
Why waste your time swearing off
the bad habits of the old year-mis-
t1kes cannot be unmade.
Why not swear on a few good
habits for 1915!

titles of that country We're on the
-qui vive to apprehend spies and sus-

strange that the guards ordered
them to surrender. Instead OF yield

account of themselves, which would
have resulted in speedy release

escape. A warning yolley fired over

II you want to get favor done
BY some obliging friend,
And want a promise. safe and sure
On which you may depend,
Don't go to hi mwho always has
Much leisure time to plan.
But II you want your favor done,
Just ask the busy man.
The man with leisure never has
moment he can spare;
He's busy cutting off, until
His friends are I'm despair.
But he whose every working hour
is crowded full Of work,
Forgets the art Of wasting time
He cannot stop to shirk.
So, when you want faro done,
And want II right away,
Go to the man who constantly
Works sixteen hours a day.
He'll find a moment, sure somehow
That has no other use,
And fix you while the idle man
Is framing an excuse.

The suggestion has been advanced
that the chances for regular en-
ployment of many people in m,r-
camille production. especially the
ciothing and kindred lines, would be
greatly enhanced If some way could
be found to retard the rapid changes
in style and the coming and going
of fads and freaks in wearing ap-
parel. As 1t is now, the manufac-
turers find 1t necessary at certain
times in the year To employ a large
amount of help to meet the demands
of the season, yet the majority of
their employees are laid off the rest
Of the year. They must walt until
ney know what the seasons styles
are before they push their work. so
there is a grand rush for a short
time, then stagnation for a long
time. The suggestion is to remedy
this condition by putting a stop TO
fashions Kaleidoscope habits, but
Just how this is to be accomplished
70 not quite clear. Let us hope,
however, that one more change Of
style may yet be permitted, for It is
quite possible the next turn OF the
side may bring US some styles for
both men and women that are more
commendable. both as to graceful
ness and sanity. than those now in
vogue.

The project to supply the babies of

BY the time you read this, congress
may have disposed of the so-called
''lteracy test" for immigration, but
there are some points brought out
In discussion that are worthy of no
tice, no matter what the fate OF the
measure. The test is proposed with
the object in view OF limiting i'm
migration TO the more intelligent
classes. with the expectation that it
will prevent the landing on our
shores of many "undesirables. There
are those who doubt it's efficacy to
achieve the. purpose intended. Some
OF the most undesirable people we
have acquired from Europe have
been those for whom no ,literacy
test could have possibly had any
terrors. Ignorance only would be
affected. yet many of our best cit
izens or their parents were once
among the most benighted passengers
in the steerage. 1t Is proposed, and
seems just, that exceptions to the
Law be made in favor of refugees
from war oppressed countries. Amer
lea is the refuge of the oppressed
of all nations and we cannot afford
to mar our reputation at this late
date; but when we open the gates
to the refugees from Belgium, Po-
land, Servia and Armenia we must
expect TO get much of the bad ma
terial along with the good.

ART NEWS AND COMMENT.

Leonce Benedite gives details which
lend certain unique aspects to the
formation OF the collection.
Its inception dates long before the
present rapprochement of the two
countries, he says, and 1t was as long
ago as 1912 that Mr.. and Mrs. Davis
ripcned the plans which have now been
realized. Early in an interview in
March Of that year Mr.. Davis asked
NJ. Benedite point blank, How many
