The last week Of the year affords
every young man, old man and wo
man, an opportunity to take person
al inventory.
A list OF successes and failures,
good qualities and bad qualities,
strength and weakness, writing out 10
detail of the prospects of the individ-
ual's personal business" would help
many to plar wisely for the new year.
A thousand businesses are managed
according to careful plans. Even the
Nation has it's budget work.
But nearly all Of 120,0o0.000 Ameri.
cans go on haphazard. letting each
day take care Of itself.
Many q year hence will be just
where they are today, or little farth-
er back, because one year older.
And they will wonder why.
No need to wonder. The need Is to
work.
st. Louis wants to erect a statue to
! Lindbergh. 1t is unnecessary, It Is too
soon, and who in the country could
make it good enough, except Mac
Monnies, and he, for the time. has
given up sculpture.
Lindbergh possesses now monu-
ment sufficient picture in every
American mind of youth sitting IN
small box, with wings, leaving New
York alone, crossing the ocean from
New York to Paris.

ment, you don't need anything Of
marble or bronze.

Scotch Professionals captured John
Ogilvie, Scotch Jesuit priest, kept
him many months in jail in Glasgow,
then hanged him. Yesterday, in Saint
Peters, at Rome. John Ogilvie was
beatified, declared and solemnly made
saint.
The great bells rang, veil was
lifted from the portrait of the martyr
saint, and his relics were exposed on
the main altar.
Later the Pope himself came from
the Vatican to venerate the saints
relics on the altar and pray for his
intercession.
1t is to be hoped the courageous
Scotch priest, where he dwells now,
knows of the honor conferred and ap-
preciates it.

AS soon as you swallow the pre-
war, or ight-off-the-ship liquor, wink
your eyes few times If they seem
blurred, hurry to the doctor and have
your stomach pumped out. You may
be in time.
A simpler plan would be to take
your little stomach pump to the party.
First-class stores might sell stomach
pumps with silver cocktail shakers, on
sale ten times as numerously under
prohibition as they ever were before.
Helen Wills, good California girl,
is now Mrs. Frederick S. Moody, Jr.
He is Californian, also.
| That wedding interests Americans,
all fond Of Helen Wills and proud of
her. 1t also interests eugenists who
believe that super-race could be
built up by proper marriage selection.
Fortunately they are wrong about
that.
A super-race is being produced, not
as basis of breeding horses or dogs,
but produced by intense affection and
concentration which more than any.
