Hail. TO THE NEW YEAR.

The old year, war-worn and
weary and starved, has slipped
lover the range; and with the
break Of dawn has come The
young Marian. glittering with.
!war toys and glowing with yigor.
To paraphrasc This seasonablr
| figure Still further, we may com
pare the new year with Amer
ica's entrance into this CHASTITY
conflict Of almost all the worlds
peoples. For our allies aud or
enemies, the years end has bat
little significance. 1t is merely a
day IN the calendar for contil-
lung the drone of the shells and
The cries of dying men and starry
ing women and children.
With MS it is quite different.
We have passed through a year in
which all events, compared with
that of our entrance into the war,
are too trifling for review. The
big happening to America was to
take up arms in a struggle for our
lives. That is why we are not
given To rhapsody over the lit
tie things Of the past, nor is it,
necessary to rehcarsc the causes
that led us into this war. There
is something wrong with their
patriotism, if every school boy
or girl is not familiar with that.
As we exchange the best greet
Ings for the prosperity Of all of
our ncighbors during the coming
Year, there is not one of us who
is not Solcmnly wondering what
the year will bring forth. In
slinctlvely we know that it is to
be the most momcntous and crit
zeal year in the history of the
United States. The world about
us is on fire. The air is filled
with sparks and we are wonder
ing how far the wind is to blow
them our way.
Yet let there be no depres-
Sing thoughts On This New Years
day. We are fighting for the
greatest stake since the star
shonc high above Bethlehem. We
are fighting to make the world
safe for all time and all mankind,
and we are to win this fight if
we keep our heads and our hearts
in the right places. We are to
win this year, we hope, but if on,
other New Year finds us still
fighting, we will be further on the
way towards the goal when all
fighting is to be forever at an
end.

Within the past thirty-two
years more than $500 negroes
have been lynched in The United
States. That is black record
in the history Of this country and
suggests that we still have our
own house to set in order before
indnlging in too much discussion
Of barbarism elsewhere. We can
not escape the glaring fact that
the negroes in tie United States
have been unfairly treated. They
came to us through no will of
their own and To within a compar-
atively recent period, they were
held in serfdom from which no
advancement was possible. The
outlook for betlcrmcnt Of these
conditions is considerably I'M
proved, and undoubtedly at the
end OF the wa when there is to be
a general reorganization of
things along The line Of human
justice, The negro will come in for
his share of it.

As TO RESOLUTIONS.

We are not among those who
sneer at the value Of New Years
resolutions.
We believe in good resolutions
at all times and, especially, at the
beginning of the new year. That
is a time for taking stock, for re-
viewing the errors of The past, for
planning for the future.
Why not give an hour to self
communion this morning? Why
not apply the acid of truth as we
strip our souls bare, and be hon
est with ourselves in an effort to
make life better and more worth
while?
Please, do not say that we are
preaching; say rather that it is
merely a bit of common sense add
vice along the lines Of good bust
ness.
In reviewing your own case do
not give yourself the best of it..
Try the reverse, and then if you
have decided that there are
fences that should be mended,
make resolutions and make good
ones. DO not be discouraged if
these resolutions are broken. Try
them again. Very few of us
humans can keep always in the
path of duty. Nearly all of us can
try and. of course, it is always
possible to give a moment to in
|rospcction and see where we go
wrong.

TUESDAY, JANUARY |, 1918.

Some time ago the. Missoula
county Medical society was re-
quested by the board or county
commissioners to formulate y
plan for improved conditions for
caring for the county poor. That
work has been done after much
study. Under the plan proposed,
the medical and surgical work
will be separated. The cases re-
quiring hospital treatment will be
cared for by representative sur
geons of the city under the direc-
ton Of the society. There will be
no charge for this work and need
less to say, it will be done far
more efficiently than il would
otherwise be done by a county
physician. The jail cases and
those at the poor farm would be
cared for by a county physician,
appointed by the board bill who,
also, should have the rccommen-
datiOn Of the medical society.
Under the arrangement there
would be left surplus of funds
which could be used for labora-
tory which is very badly needed.
We can see Il decided benefit to
the community under This plan
which is understood. has been
hnJd II, ohnxyancn h&, Tho rpf,isal of
asmajority Of the board to appoint
the physician recommended by
the medical society. II that is the
case, other names should be sub
mittcd. Certainly the community
should not be deprived Of this
beneficial change. This is some
thing that concerns The welfare Of
all the people Of Missoula county.
