NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS

Every day is the beginning of new year to the
wise person who has learned how to live usetuy
present. to look with constructive vision to the future
ana to turn to the past only for profitable experience
or happy memories
nevertheless, the first day of calendar year has
speclal significance to most human beings 1t marks
suitable occasion for casting Oft the and
takes OF the past and turning eagerly the New
Year In which many good things may happen. Every
one expects, with the aid of good resolutions to
make progress along many lines in the II months.
resolution to get real joy out of life is one
that most Americans ought to make And it is not such
selfish resolution as it may sound at first
Some of the things which have lessened joy in this
country and which give Americans in general repu-
taton of being less prosperous spiritually than they
are materially could very comfortably be dispensed
with These worry, over-work pessmisnl, self-in-
dulgence and doubt the byproducts of too much
centration on material prosperity goal in itself.
If New Years resolutions started lot of irritable
tails to thinking and acting with courage leisure opti
mlsm unselflshneSs, temperance and faith the year,
it advances, would be of the most satisfactory

AMERICAN BIOGRAPHY

Great Britain has British Dictionary of Biography
which supplies the essential facts about the lives of i'm

ginning of the nation down to the present time. The
United States, though better off than England in the
matter of ordinary dictionaries eXcons has never
had such work. The need has always been felt, but
the undertaking has been delayed and avoided because
of its vast labor and expense.
Now it is made possible by the munifcent action

the cost of getting the necessary manuscript ready for

FITTINGS GO ON"

George Eastman phlanthropst, multimonaire
and successful manufacturer of excellent Photographic
instruments and supplies has given nearly S60O0OOOO
to educational institutions. In his community he
has literally endowed theater and symphony or
chestra and has spent generously in furhering the
cial and educational activities of his employees.
But perhaps the most important thing he has given
to those with whom he has come in contact is some
thing which few will recognize. That is his fine spirit
of service. Mr. Eastman is quoted saying:
"There always is something more to do. No one is
down and out until he is dead. Nor should anyone
be up and out SO long he can go on achieving No
one should stand STILL We reach the end of any
thing. Things go on"
Things do indeed go on, and the greatest handl-

acter and its educative processes. We
assume that character is the sum Of
our habits, attitudes, and ideals as
well as of our knowledge. 1t is, as
a result our particular way of living.
1t is determined to large extent
by our physical and spiritual heredity,
but it also results from our environ
ment and training, and it is with these
factors that we must be concerned.
Our character, good or bad, is con-
stantly in a state of change and for
nation. Habits, attitudes and appre-
Citations are being built into charac-
ter by every experience with others.
Education is the power or effect Of
those experiences; it is the uncon-
scious influence of environment; it is
the result of special direction and
training by teachers which causes
constant changes of habits, attitudes
and ideals. Education therefore is
constantly in progress because Of the
fact that we are members of social
groups and are influenced by each
member. There, education through
unconscious influences of companions
at home, school or on the street, or
because of the influence of teachers,
is constantly at work forming char
acter. Whether the results in con-
duct of this educational process are
good or bad, depends upon the nature
of the social environment, upon the
kind and amount of influence of the
ideal pattern of teacher or both.

Christian Character Through til
Weekday Church School
By Herbert W. BlashfeId

Many people are freely expressing
their opinion these days that the mod
ern weekday program of religious
education will largely solve the relig-
ious problems Of the day. They tell
us that religious instruction given
grom 80 to 100 percent of all the chill
dren of one or two hours each week,
will bring forth a new religious age
in which Christian character will pre-
dominate. Are we sure that this will
certainly happen? Boys and girls
under twelve years of age are devei-
oping dynamic character to \ far
greater extent by other means than
by the influence of instruction and in
dividual thinking. Most of our week
day attempts today are not contribute
ing greatly to Christian character be-
cause the teachers treat the boys and
girls as little adults, who will, after
the lesson is presented, go home or
to school, filled with new determine
ton and purposes.
The weekday church school as q
character building institution, must be
grounded upon sound educational
theory and practice, if it is to give
to society the values or ideals Of
Christianity found in Christlike liv-
ing. One of the most valuable con-
tributions of modern education to So
ciety is the present emphasis on char
