In the hustle and hustle of everyday af-
fairs one has only a faint idea that
great changes are being or have been
wrought. But at regular intervals-New
Years Day. for instance-the fact thrusts
itself forcibly home.
There was a time when the first day
of the year was the first in many partlc-
nlars. Roosevelt, if he did not inaugurate
the democratic New Year reception,
brought it up to its highest standard

set aside for the exchange of greetings
between the chief executive of the ma

constituted as trustees of these endow-

simply to intimate that if in the judy

advisable then they would be adopted
with entire approval by himself In this
respect these trustees are less circum-
scribed or limited in their powers than
in any other case where large endow-

carefully limited with respect to their
