 As American Yankees it is said of us that we are always looking for something new, but yet We stick to much that is old. One old custom we stick to is swearing off on New Years day. I propose for us a new one, swearing on. Let's look the old world squarely in the face, each for himself, and as we enter on the new year, swear on something a little better than We have yet done. It's not my thought to tell you what to do. Each one who reads this knows for himself, what he or she can take on for him. self as he enters the new year. that will, if carefully followed every day. lead as truly towards what We wish might be, as the needle to the pole. Just stop a minute and think of it. This New Years day is unique in the history of the whole world Those we regard as best fitted to lead us. to higher ground are all at their posts ready for their duties. The eyes of the world are on them. We expect much of them in advance of anything they or we have ever known and they will not 6isappoint us. We shall enter on what they outline for us, as un- conquerable in spirit as were our lads who so gallantly went over the top and fixed it so these men could march on with the good work and show us the rich valleys of opportunity they now are able to point out to us. Any nation is no better than the individual units composing it. Every one of us who does not reach up and look out, and grasp the things now so freely offered to us in every neighborhood of our vast commonwealth is surely recreant to the trust imposed on us. AS was said to England by one of her honored dead, America and espe- cially the United States, expects that every citizen will do his whole duty now in peace time, just as faithfully as we tried to do in wartime. So let's tackle something a little higher. Each think for himself what it is, and go to it with the firm resolution that next New Years day will find us one notch higher in our ability to do some thing better and so be the more able to enjoy the better things that are all around us and above us. Thus will we continually be better, do bet ter and have better things. For, as the poet has so truly said:
 'Tis being and doing and having, that
 make
 All the pleasures and pains of which
 mortals partake.
 To be what God pleases,
 To do a mans best,
 And to have a good heart
 Are the ways to be blest.
