THE BABY NINETEEN SIXTEEN

forgivng old chap last night and he certainly has much
to forgive Ever since man fired out of the garden

crouch against the weather 1t is too hot or too cold
too wet or too dry just right When fault finding
man isn't wishing it would ran he is hoping it will clear
up. When it is calm he longs for a breeze, and when
Zephyr frts mildly with Boreas he wants the wind
to cease.
When the genial old sun lets the light of his counten-
shine the aggard EARTH and wakes to life plant
and blossom and verdure always dissatisfied longs
for the Clouds or the falling of night So it goes on for
and ever while the patient old weather orders
heat and cold calm and breeze sunshine and cloud alter

ceedng yet with utmost patience persistenty at work
and sticking to job that no else would have could
handle
And so last night he just forgot all the kicks and
plants of man. and with his big generous heart and will
ing hands, prepared for the coming of the little baby year,
Nineteen Sixteen
He gave him royal reception too for the youngser
at the stroke of midnight peeped the SUBMITS of the

Everywhere was feecy blanket white as an angels
Wings soft as the down of cygnet, pure childs

Itwas royal reception Oregon gave him. thanks to the
good old weather man. And today the youngster can
look over the faest land on earh and tread the erst

the big blanket.
Let us hope the youngster will appreciate his recep

better than his predecessor 1915 who fled over the Pacific

AN EVENT OF NATIONAL IMPORTANCE

New Years day 1916 will be marked with white
stone by the pr0hbtonisS Of the United States for all
time to come They have made an uphill fight for years
criticised hashy condemned and berated they stood by
their guns when attacked and boldly advanced in counter
attacks the pressure relieved They were
aggressive, persistent undismayed resourcefu deter
mined, and they have won most decisive victory.
1t is an event. even in so large country with
its nearly one hundred million population, when six
states with population of eight million people, voluntar
y Danish saloons and curtal the use OF mtoXlcans.
1t is occasion when six of the AZ states Of
the Union of their own accord climb on the water wagon
1t is not to be expected that all opposition to the move
ment has ceased in these states for there will be for time
at least violations of the law Many look upon their be-
ing forcbly as it were denied the use OF splrltuous
liquors. or their being hampered in securing them an
attack on their personal liberties In sense tins is true
Man in state of nature could do about he pleased
if he strong enough In that condition with every
mans hand against him, and his against all his fellow
men, when might right he undoubtedly had the right
to help himself to whatever he could get
Civilized man is different being, because conditions
are different His personal liberties must be curtaied in
some for the good of ALL He must pay taxes for one
thng-if he has property and whether he wants to or
not He gives up certain of his rights and some OF his
property for the good of all.
In natural state if he had the measles or small pox
he could still go where he pleased and divide up his
troubles with any who tried to stop him. AS civilized
man he is deprived of his liberty and isolated not
punishment, but as protection to his fellows
1t is this view of the that is taken by the prohb
tonsts and which, it seems also taken by majority
of the voters in six states.
However it is hard to enforce law when strong
minority is opposed to it, and there will undoubtedly be
much contention and many violations OF the law How
ever those charged with the enforcement OF the law have
laid their plans WELL have organized for united campaign
and will no doubt eventually put an end to them.
No matter what any Of us may believe as to the cor
recness of the law we as good citizens must obey it, and
aid in its enforcement just as we would in any other
