A good American can help just now
by putting his respect for the law
strongly In evidence. For the law Is
the law. If 1t Is poor law, it should
be changed. But until 1t Is changed,
1t should be Obeyed-whether 1t re-
lates to the shooting of game birds or
to the use of liquor or to the speed
Of automobiles or to murder or to
anarchy. Many people who would
holly resent the charge that they are
anarchists take delight in evading the
laws and in making sport of the laws.
Every thinking man must realize
that this Twentieth century civiliza-
alton is too complex to be sane, safe
and sober. Medical philosophers are
unanimous in declaring that we Amer
leans live too hard and too fast; that
our rapid ways are harmful both to
cthe individual and to the race; that
we should slow up. We are, to use the
homely old phrase, burning the candle
at both ends. Men try to succeed In
business. to rule in politics. to be so
cial leaderS-all at the same time.
To crowd dissimilar things together
has become a national characteristic.
Our avOcations are often as wearing
as our vacations; we play even harder
than we work. Thus to crowd Two
or more lives into one Is to borrow
of nature. She is a hard creditor and
she always exacts payment.
One cannot, of course, indict whole
people. There are still lAilliOns Of
sane, safe and sober people in Ameri-
ca. But society that demands or
even cOuntenanceS such reckleSSneSS
is in need of reformation. 1t would
be interesting-and startling-tO know
how many men and women put them
selves in an early grave by going the
pace that kills.
"Of all sounds of all bells, most
solemn and touching is the peal which
rings out the old year. | never hear it
without gathering up of my mind to
q concentration of all the images that
have been diffused over the past
twelve-mOnth all / have done or suf-
fered, performed or neglected, in that
regretted time. | begin to know its
worth as when person dies. 1t takes
a personal color; nor was 1t pOet1cal
flight in contemporary poet when he
exclaimed: L saw the skirts Of the
departing year.
Every first Of January that we ar
rive at, is an imaginary milestone on
the turnpike track of human life; at
once a resting place for thought and
meditation, and a starting place for
fresh exertion in the performance Of
our journey. The man who does not
at least propose to himself to be bet
ter this year than he was last, must
be either very good or very bad indeed.
And only to propose to be better Is
something; if nothing else, it is an
acknowledgment of our need to be so,
which is the first step towards amend
ment. But in fact, to propose to one
self to do we'll is in some sort to do
we'll, positively; for there is no such
thing as a stationary point in human
-endeavors he who is not worse today
than he was yesterday, is better: aud
he who is not better. Is worse"
So wrote Charles Lamb. Therefore
let us make New Year resolutions
duly to prize and diligently to i'm
prove time for the blessed end it was
given fOr"-even if we break them.

'"Ihere'S nothing new
under the sum-" according to a very
old saying. It's true, too, in sense.
But in another sense it most certainly
isn't true. For there is something
new every time New Years day comes
around.
There are several things that are
new at New Years beside the New
Year There's a new chance. There's
new responsibility. There's new
balance in the Bank of Time. There's
a new bank book. So. what will the
check stubs show at the end Of the

Rev. John Sherman had a right to
make his reasonable request" If prac-
ticing what one breaches gives that
right. His "three score and ten" were
busy years. He was born at Dedham.
Essex. England, and before he was
twenty one he was an A. B. and A. NJ.
of Trinity college, Cambridge. a min
lister of the Church Of England and q
Puritan on his way across the Atlantic
to the Massachusetts Bay colony.
There was no church for him, since
the only three in eXistence-BOstOn
Salem and WatertOwn-had efficient
ministers. So he was one of the "Orig-
inaI planters" Of Wethersfeld. Conn.,.
and a watcher" 1634-4O. Then he
was one of the founders of Milford.
New Haven plantation. Next he was
a magistrate representing Milford in
the New Haven colony and also
charged with the duty of dividing land.
Meanwhile he preached wherever op-
portunity offered.
In 1917 he became the minister of
the WatertOwn church. There he
preached till his death in 1886. Church
and state were pretty much the same
thing in those days, so the village af-
fairs kept him busy man. He found
time, however to publish for many
years an almanac, for which he made
alt" the astronomical calculations and
wrote the text. He was also the first
fellow and overseer of Harvard uni
versity. Incidentally he also found time
to marry twice. Cotton Mather in his
"Magnalia Christi Americana" says he
had % children; this is a misstate-
ment, but he did have 49, His cpl
taph in Latin on the tombstone in East
Waltham, Mass, thus sums up his
life:

Certainly his request Is one that

that was never more reasonable than
now. The year 1922 is q year when
every good American should endeavor

Though in folly and In blindness
And in sorrow still we grope,
