NATIONAL GUARDSMEN ON
KAUAI SET EXAMPLE IN

. Word comes from Kauai that the
various companies of the 4th Infantry,
National Guard. stationed on that
island are doing active work in
raising funds, which, according to Off
GERS at local headquarters, is shin.
ing example for other island troops to
follow. -.
Two companies at Waimea raise
$500 by a dance and entertainment q
few nights ago, all, of which will be
turned over to guard work, while the
three companies at Lihue have raised
$4,000 in less than one week of work.
Owing to the fact that the $500
originally subscribed to the Lihue
armory was found insufficient for the
work outlined, it was necessary to
bring up the total to $1,000, public.

new YEARS RESOLUTIONS
Better to Make Many and Break Some
Than to Have Made None
at All.

It's very much the fashion to joke
about making New Years resolutions
but as a matter of fact there is ad-
vantage in making resolutions, II they
are good ones, and there is no other
date except ones birthday anniversary
so appropriate for the practice.
That individual must be totally de-
void of sentiment who has no senti-
ment on the subject Of New Year.
Jokers whose topic is New Years res
olutions lay stress on the fact that
many of them are broken. A fact it
is-there is no denying it. But not all
Of them are broken. A man who makes
ten New Years resolutions, every one
Of them good, and breaks nine, is
better off to the extent of the virtue
involved in keeping the one to which
he adheres than if he made none at
all.
For the sake of argument, however,
perhaps it may be conceded that max
ing numerous good resolutions at once
is open to criticism on the ground that
it is harder to attain perfection in
many things than in few things, and
that failures cause Encouragement,
and that concentration is helpful to
success. From this point of view the
wise thing for New Years resolution
makers to do is to survey their fail
ings and frame few resolutions hit
ting the high spots.

KRUPP PROFITS IN DOUBT
Increased Revenues Devoted to Build
ing New Shops to Fill War
Orders. T

While the annual report Of the
Krupp company shows apparently
smaller profits than fof last year. says
Berlin dispatch, it is believed the
company earned considerably more
than in the preceding year. but that
the increased revenues were devoted
largely to building new workshops re-
quired to fill war orders.
The report states that the gross prof.
it's for the year were 113 100000 marks
(about SAT ,0O0O00), which is 100000
marks below last year, but the writing
off of 100000 marks occurred before
the drawing of the balance sheet. This
amount and other deductions make a
total reduction of 100000 marks. as
against 100000 marks for the same
purposes last year. AS the reductions
increased 100000 marks, it is be-
lieved the profits must have increased
at least 100000 marks.
The net profit reported is 100000
marks, compared with 95,O00,OOO marks
last year, after the payment of taxes,
including a special war tax of 28,OOO.OOO
marks and the giving of 25,OO0.OOO
marks for workmen's insurance and be.
nevolent funds.
The heavy demand for building pur-
poses caused the Krupp family to lend
half Of it's dividends to the company,
making the family income only 15,000.-
600 marks.

FORGET the Past.

The New Year is the best Of all times
to take mental inventory, and every
one of us should do so. We should
forget the past entirely. All the re-
grets, all the signs. all the tears that
ever were, or ever will be, combined,
cannot recall one single moment that
las passed. Then why waste good
time and vitality? Meet the New
Years day with brave, smiling face.
The world stops to take notice of the
fighter, and gives him 80 chances out
of 100, whereas the whimperer is
passed by without a glance. Then
let us resolve that the first day of 1917
will see us starting all over again.
standing fearlessly in our places; and
let us further resolve that during the
coming days we will, occasionally,
reach out helping hand to someone
who needs it. This is a great resolu-
ton to make-a gilt-edged investment

NOT DAVID, WROTE IT
Newspaper Critic Hints chauneey De.
pews knowledge of Bible is
Limited.

Chauncey Depew probably expected
a controversy when he recently de-
nounced the Psalmist for limiting
mans years on earth to seventy, but
he couldn't have anticipated the form
It has taken. The following is one OF
several letters addressed to the editor
uf the New York Tribune which Mr..
Depew's statement has called forth:
"Mr. Depew, according to your re-
Tort of his interesting address on not
growing old, took exception to the Ia
ntiliar observation in the ninetieth
Psalm that the days of our years are
threescore and ten. He assumed that
David wrote that Psalm and argued,
since David's life was so irregular,
strenuous and violent, that he may
have been, or, at any rate, have felt,
prematurely old.
However that may have been, the
fact Is that the ninetieth Psalm was
never attributed to David. If Mr.. De-
pew had looked at the heading of the
Psalm as given in our Bibles he would
have noticed that it is entitled "A Pray
er of Moses, the Man of Cod Such iS
the Jewish tradition. Even If David
shortened his years by his manner or
life he did not, at any rate. declare
that seventy is the limit and that
possible few years more or less are
labor and sorrow. 1t may not be Moses
that wrote the Psalm, but tradition
has it so.
ut is said that Moses lived to be
one hundred and twenty years old and
that his eye was not dim nor his nat.
ural force abated. 1t is also observed
in the narrtive that when he led his
people out of Egypt he was fourscore
years old and did good service for forty
years more. This should be encourag-
ing to Mr.. Depew, the octogenarian,
whose eye is not dim, nor his spontane-
GUS humor abated."

NEW YEAR MEMORIES
By Fred Bouardus,

BY Fred soeardus.
Oh. for an old-fashioned New Year day.
With enjoyments keen and pure.
When fun and frolic reigned supreme,
Good fellowship the lure.
AS we journeyed to the parties
Afoot, perchance by sleigh,
The atmosphere seemed laden with
Best wishes of the day.
With good old hearty handshakes
We knew were welcome grips,
Instead Of the present method of
Just touching the fingertips.
How we merrily danced the lancers,
Danced it with a zeal.
Also the polka and minuet,
And jolly Virginia reel.
How the young and old enjoyed 1t

And natures will obeys.
