A HAPPY NEW YEAR.

In many respects tomorrow will be like
today or the day following it, but it will
have the distinction of being the first day
of new year. AT the opening of Il new
year it is good business to take account
of stock and fix the standards to be at
tanned during that period New Year
resolutions" is the title given to the per-
sonal standards of the day. "Of the
day" so exactly describes the time limit
of these resolutions that they are consid-
erably in disrepute and are made the
butt of many commonplace jokes.
However, it is serious thing if per-
son cannot make some resolutions at the
opening of a new year. Inability to make
a good resolution reveals great weakness
in personal character If one cannot re-
solve to do better, he is hopelessly bound
to the faults and failures of the past;
he has surrendered himself to habit and
method; or he is indulging in a compla-
cency and dissatisfaction that are fatal
to real progress. There is little hope for
the person who cannot make a resolution
that will lead to improvement. SO a
New Years resolution is both beneficial
and desirable.
There are two reasons for great and
good resolutions on the first day of 1919.
The year just closing has been a period
when the American citizen has pledged
himself to the greatest work of the ma
tons history. The seleetive draft called
to military service more young men than
were ever martialled into an army be.
