TIE OLD YEAR.

THE OLD YEAR
The Old Years slipping out to sea
To Join the years which used TO be;
A few more hours It has to last
And then with the remembered past
1t takes II place, with thousands
more,
Just like it which have gone before.
Some of us mourn it's passing on,
others may smile when it has gone
And hopefully embrace the new,
Turning to It as humans do
Unto the friend who comes to bring
What is the cargo of a Year?
Joy, hope, success and doubt and
fear,
Failure and victory and mirth.
The pain OF death, the thrill of birth
And gain and loss, and each in turn
Some portion Of it all shall earn.
Each Of US. by his strength OF Will.
Shall shape the year for good or i'll;
Save the inevitable blow
Which strikes the dearly loved ones
low,
BY all we do and all we are
The year that comes we make or
mar.
Within the year tonight that dies
The record of our service lies,
Unchanged through all that shall oc-
cur
This year shall tell the men we
were;
Ages unborn shall run II through
And learn just what we dared 10 do.

THE BLESSING OF PATERNAL-
ISM.
No wonder that we think a heap
or our free institutions,
When Uncle Samuel helps us keep
Our New Years resolutions.
The fear that they are far too good
To keep. no more viii fret us.
We could not break them if we
would,
The government won't let US.
II we resolve. through self control
To go upon the wagon,
Eschew the jug, the flask. the bowl
The seidel and the flagon,
It's likely that wen keep this pact
Exactly as we make it
Because we'll FIND the VOlstead act
Has made It hard 10 break IT,
If we resolve to save each day
A part of our per diem,
Instead Of tossing II away
As did old Omar Khayyam,
The government will see US through
And make us strong and steady,
For when the income tax is due
Wen have to have q ready.
If we resolve 70 do more work,
Our annual VOW renewing,
That we will never dodge or shirk
The task we should be doing.
The government again will aid
Our energies 10 fire,
For many recent laws have made
The cost of living higher.

a TEST OF FAkH
Chattanooga News.)

We have frequent occasion to pro
test against the efforts of Japan to
impose her dominion upon unwilling
peoples, yet we have thus far failed
to exemplify the ideals which we rec
ommend to Japan. If we should with
draw our sovereignty from the Philip
pines, in accordance with our repeated
promises, we could the more consist
emily ask Japan to follow similar
course toward Shantung, Manchuria
and Siberia. Our plea would have
great deal more force if we could
make it with clean hands.To say that
the Philippines are not ready for in
dependence is merely to express an
arbitrary, gratuitous opinion. 1t is
perfectly easy to create conditions
in ones own mind-that no people
ever could comply with. Our delay
about respecting our own pledge is a
reflection on our national good faith
and constant invitation to interna-
tional complications in the far east.
