KAN Tint on certain New
ElUhnNNS Years day the soldiers of
his army should take n
vow to refrain from Indulgence In
strong drink for a wholeSyear.
The practice of beginning the new
year with good resolutions, however.
Is very, very old. The custom goes
back to the beginnings of recorded his.
tory and was common to many peoples.
Time was when the New Years
resolution was solemn affair, marked
by elaborate religious ceremonies. For
example, the Japanese, 800 years be-
fore Christ, made much of the day. All
outstanding accounts and debts were
cleared away, all enmities We're ended
under penalty of the law. The dwell
ing house was swept and garnished ;
old furniture and old clothing were
cast away in exchange for new in the
belief that the assumption of n new
conscience was complete only with the
assumption of new covering for the
body.
BY contemporary peoples was the
New Year day regarded as time Of SOL
enn remuneration of all follies and an
amendment for the future. In the days
of the Pharaohs the Egyptians SYM
bolized their publication with elabOr-
ate baths and fasting; the Persians
and Phoenicians greeted the New Year
with prayer to the heather images and
with tiagellations.
With the passing Of the centuries old
New Years vows have lost their for.

and not national concern. Swearing

humorist and cartoonist.
Nevertheless, the modern man Is
more sensitive to the appeal Of the
New Year than he shows in public
What makes the New Year is the new.
ness of life that human nature brings
into It, 1t is u New Year to everybody
according as everybody tries to live
over again, and pushes forward anu
turns plan to action and discourage
ment to hope. People rely too mucl
on resolutions to make year new.

The PASSIONATE Patriots

The exploit Of Gabrielle D Annunzo, writer of
erotic poetry and soldier in the great war, in cap
turing Fiume at the head of band of irregular
Italian soldiers, and driving out the small British
and French forces, is one more amazing incident
in hectic period.
One of the results Of the war is crop of pas
pionate patriots. These are the men who lose
their mental balance, their sense Of proportion,
in the feverish Obsession that unless they do
something of bold and desperate character,
their country will be shamed and most outrage
Ously put upon.
The almost frantic manner in which these
flaming spirits leap to the defense of Honor is a
bit theatrical. Always there are plenty Of fol-
lowers for such as these-the appeal is elemental.
We know. Once in a while in country
we see something like it, when an exponent of
the mygawd school Of politics flashes on to the
stage before us, and then off again.
MI D'AnnunZio will cool Off one Of these days,
when some firm, Unconditional person in authority
grasps him firmly by the collar and leads him out
of the lmolight. His less turbulent countrymen,

Boston Efficiency

We read truly remarkable statement in re-
gard to the efficiency of the Massachusetts state
troops in Boston when they took hold following
the decision of most of the police to desert their
posts.
After order had been restored and the thugs
and crooks had been taught who was boss daily
violations of the law were reduced to only seven
per cent of normal.
Think of that! For fourteen infractions in
normal times under police rule, there was only
under the regime of the vigilant lads in khaki.
This whole Boston incident is mighty consol-
ing to lovers of order and a Republican form of
government, opposed to terrorism. Evident
ly the Hansons and the Coolidges are plentiful
enough to protest the peaceful majority against
the mad minorties, and as for the guardsmen,
they seem to be just plucky and capable as
their brothers who smashed the German lines in
France.
We like to believe that union workers in Bos-
ton are also glad that the troops put such quick
finish to lawlessness. They do not like sneak
thieves and purse snatchers any more than do
the rest Of US.

The Salaries Paid to Ministers

Poorly paid Baptist ministers who have been
forced to go into debt for the necessities of life
received word of cheer the other day when the
general board of promotion announced that it
had taken steps to increase their pay. The Rev.
Charles A. McAlpine of the national committee
of Northern Baptist Laymen contends that the
salary of every Baptist minister who receives
less than $4,000 year should be raised 80 per
cent
Clergymen as class belong to the poorest
paid profession in the country. Members of the
laty often can see where relief should be granted
elsewhere but are blind to the needs of their own
pastors. They take too literally the dctum that
the Lord will provide, forgetting that He provides
through agencies and also announced that a lab
orer is worthy of his hire.
Many cergymen have been hard pressed in
the last two years to make ends meet on the sal
aries paid them. Although most Of their parish
oners have received increased wages, many pas
tors struggling along on their old salaries and
finding it extremely difficult to pay their bills.
A number of denominations have realized the
injustice Of the situation and are taking steps to
remedy it. The Baptists are only doing the just
thing when they increase salaries so that their
pastors need not worry constantly about the ne
cegsities of life. Other church organizations are
giving serious consideration to the problem.

The Visit Of King Albert

America will extend warm greeting to King
Albert Of Belgium who has sailed to this country
with Queen Elizabeth and Crown Prince Leopold.
Belgium has a warm spot in the heart Of America.
The heroic resistance of the nation, led by its
dauntless king, to the march of tyranny, it's suf-
fering under oppression and its manifest desire
to arise from its ruins greater and BETTER all ap-
peal strongly to the American spirit.
This nation is not given to undue and unbe-
coming adulation of royalty. Its democratic in
stincts oppose all manifestations of king worship,
but it's spirit of fair play permits it to recognize
valor ard manhood in all stations Of life. For
that reason it will welcome Belgium's royalty
with cordiality and warmth and extend to it a
gracious greeting
King Albert is coming to America to thank
the republic for its generosity to Belgium in the
dark hours, for its manifestation of good will,
and its sympathetic spirit for the sufferers Of
that nation. He is not coming to press the theory
of an exalted belief in the divine right of kings,
but rather to express the thanks of real king
to a free people for their support in an hour when
he and his people fought and bled to prevent the
establishment of tyranny.
The American people will be glad to have
King Albert pay a visit to country and will
show him every mark of respect and honor We
have no kings and royalty, and do not want them,
but we do have respect for a member of the
royalty who is big enough and manful enough to
fight against royal system that reduced sacred
treaties to scraps Of paper and believed that
might is right We will honor him for his will
lingness to fight against tyrannical might and for
the freedom Of his people, He proved himself a
man in the fateful hour when he might have sold
the honor of his nation for immunity from des-
truction. lie preferred to lead his nation to
death rather than to accept the alternative of a
base surrender without a fight for the principle
he knew squared with justice and honor.

Stop Itching Skin

There is one safe, dependable treat.
ment that relieves itching torture and
skin irritation almost instantly and
that cleanses and soothes the skin.

from his college days. AS a result he
received the first OF series of i'm
prisonments when he was 1S-for a
sonnet against the government. He
has passed periods Of exile at Paris
and in Italy. alternating with stays in
prison. One OF his protests was
against the measures pursued by the
government in suppressng the Cuban
Instruction. He founded a republic
can newspaper, of which he was edi-
tor, reporter and reviewer. He estab-
lished publishing house to introduce
to Spain the great works of European
literature at popular prices; this was
but one of the attempts he has made
sometimes at the risk Of his life, to
bring his country into the current OF
modern thought. He was elected to
the COrtes, and become the leader of
his party. He devotes his time at pre-
sent entirely to literature.
In his novels he began in the usual
Spanish way with pictures of local
provincial life with the types and the
pictures of which he was familiar.
But he deals not merely with pictures;
his stories all have an object in which
their strenuous author is greatly in
terested. He lacks restraint, his pas
sion for Independence is without
bounds. he carries his admiration for
the realism of Zola to limits which
shock our more restrained habit of
mind, but despite the opposition which
he has encountered at home and
abroad, the author OF The Four
Horsemen of the Apocalypse" is rapid
ly becoming one of the most widely
read Of living writers.

fIout and insult friendly governments, even
though they would like Fiume for Italy.
If the world is to get settled, and stay that
way, each nation will have to repress it's selfish

restrain its passionate patriots, who are apt to
prove very real nuisances.
