lDOETS died in the trenches of Gal
l. lipoli and France, watching Gods
sunrise or the wispy clouds in the
blue. British gentlemen caked with
the mud of Flanders wrote detailed re-
ports of their observations of migra-
tory birds and of the effect of drum
fire on bird life. French students and
scholars, bearded and dirty, made
careful notes of the flora of the
Mouse and the Somme.
These men visited Olympus and did
not fall asleep while the gods con-
versed. Neither did they permit the
roar of mans fury to drown out the
divine voices.
So it must be a good year that is
ahead. There can be no bad years.
The years are measured by God and
not by the evil that men do.

YEARS MERELY
LIES CHAPTERS
Offer Opportunity for Each Of
Us to Write Therein a
Record Better Than
the Preceding.

% HE coming year lies spread
like the white plain that
sweeps from the roadside to
the distant forest where the
gray squirrels are making tracks in the
light snow. On this white sheet a lit
tie record may be written; not a full
life story, but merely a brief chapter
or two, like the chapters of squirrel
life that may be read by one who to-
day ventures into the white forest.
1t is a great mystery that lies ahead,
a treasure house of endless possibili-
ties. The span of a mans life Is
short; shorter in absolute measure
ment than the span of a year. For
each year, when October fades into
November, has wrought completeness.
No human life can bring completeness.
1t cannot bring completeness of knowl-
edge or completeness of happiness OF
completeness of good works. The best
man can do, in his poor, limited way,
is to CLEAN as much wisdom and win
as much happiness and do as much
good as the number of his days per-

the blight of wasted days and without
undue regret that what should have

TINE year dawns on an earth red
Il with blood, an earth torn with
strife. 1t will be for most of the peo-
pie of the earth a year of sorrow and
of sacrifice. But for all this it will:
not be a bad year. Not half of civil
lied mankind but all mankind that has
not forgotten the meaning of civiliza-
ton has been unselfishly, h~eroically
engaged in the needful work of rid
ding the world of a noxious parasitic
growth, the poisonous fungus of mill
tarism. For those who gave them
selves to this essential work it will be
a good year. For all who are suffer-
ing that the years to come may be
happier and healthier the year will be
a good year.
February will bring it's crystal
brightness. April will spread her
feast of flowers. June will display her
green perfection of beauty. August
will offer the ripening grains; October
the laden orchards. The year will
taxi no heed of the crime that has
been done by man or of the vengeance
that marched inexorably.

Modern Dress Is Worn By
Members OF Church Of God
fBy Associated Press)

ANDERSON. Ind. June 26.-Mem-
bers of the Church of God, who attend
ed the annual general assembly held
here recently, before returning to their
homes in twenty states, Canada, Brit
ish West Indies, India and South
America, commented on the changed
appearance of the assembly from
those held previous to two years ago.
The cause was the adoption by mem
bers Of the modern customs Of dress.
Until two years ago the men, women
and children dressed very plainly.
At the session this year. however,
the men wore neckties, were smooth
shaver, and the women wore hats
purchased from milliners instead OF
bonnets made in most instances by
themselves. and dresses of different
colored materials and fashionable pat
terms instead Of the plain black dress
es, skirts of which touched the ground,
once the prevailing style.
Another custom which has been
dropped is kiss of affection between
men when shaking hands and meeting
for the first time at camp meeting.
At the closing session OF the assem-
bly, several persons were baptized by
immersion but the ordinance of foot
washing, heretofore on the calendar
of camp meeting in connection with
communion, was omitted

added I'VE just trust to luck in put

Their cues" however. are taken
from little things. The fact that wo-

said he believes that great prosperity
