New Years Day

JANUARY l, Marking the beginning of the year,
has been observed as public holiday for many
centuries, certainly in Rome since the reformation of
the calendar by julius Caesar in the century before
Christ
Owing to the confusion in dates which has result
ed from the mperfecions of various CALENDARS which
caused skipping Of dates at various times, New
Years Day may be said to be merely and arbitrary
designation AS late as 1852 the adoption of the
Gregorian calendar by England and the American
colonies caused skip of II days.
However, regardless of the day designated as New
Years at various times and in various countries it
has been generally observed holiday
The Romans celebrated it with professions, aban-
donment Of litigation and strife exchanging of visits
and of gifts, feastng and merry making. Early ia,
theirs Of the Christian church did not approve of
the festivities, but recommended that the day be
devoted to meditation scripture reading and work
of charity
But abou3 the fourth century, when December rs
had been agreed upon for the observance Of Chrsts
nativity, New Years Day. falling one week later
began to assume a sacred character as the annver-
sary OF the circumsiOn, and as such it still figures in
the calendars Of certain branches of the church,
Other religious faiths, such as the Mohammedan
and Jewish, have their CALENDARS with distinc-
tive holidays and festivals, in which their New
Years Day has corresponding significance to that
of Christendom.
Among all it is considered an appropriate day for
reviewing the events Of the previous year. the MAX
ing of new resolves and the adoption of plans for
the future 1t is also the occasion for the expression
of good wishes We join in the spirit of the day in
wishing all aHappy New Year.

Holiday greetings to the rest of
the world from the people of Ari-
zona! wouldn't it be wonderful
if we could follow up such an eX-
preston of oincere best wishes with
present of a box of warm winter
sunshine or cool mountain breezes
as the seasons varied. Unfortun-
ately for those people who live else
where and most fortunate for Ari-
iona, the only way they can per-
sonally enjoy cur climate or thrill
to our gorgeous scenery is to ac-
tually pay us a visit.
Again imagining-and this could
easily become reality-wouldn't it
be a grand thing for the entire
state if at Christmas time several
CT our big weekly magazines run
ming into millions of circulation

ing to the people in the rest of
this United States from the citi-
zenS of Arizona. Then on the same

There is a famous Arabian pro-
verb which reads thusly: IT once
knew a. man who continually grum-
bled about his shoes until he met
man who had nc feet" We, who
live in the baby state, have much
to be thankful for AS this is be-
ing written, southern Arizona is
enjoying rain. 1t has been COM
ing down continuously for almost
twenty-four hours.
Northern Arizona is blanketed by
heavy SHOWS, the important water
sh.sds are carrying much more snow
than during the past year. These
vital sources of moisture and wa
ter are wonderful Christmas pre-
sent for our entire state If we only
step for moment we can think
Of many other things, too numer-
Gus to mention, for which we, as
individuals and a state, should be
humbIy grateful
I wouldn't be running true to
form unless I mentioned that the
first present of all would be to
have our new legislature pass
bill which would insure our entire
state of a year around state sub
sidized National Advertising Pro-
gram.

Foster Comes Into His Own
NEW YORK UNIVERSITY has announced the ell

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY has announced the cleo
ton of Stephen CollnlS Foster to it's celebrated
campus Hall of Fame. The university does not hon.
or Foster so much as it honors itself
Much lesser men have been chosen in past times
Foster is the first musician be selected and the one
most deserving
He calls to mind the famous words of Andrew
Fletcher of Satoun who fourshed in the latter part
Of the 18th century
C1lVe me the markings of the songs of a nation and
care not who makes it's laws
Many laws have been written in the United States
out 1t is doubtful whether the authors of any of them
will ever reach the Immortality that is Fosters A
whole NATION sang his songs just before the Civil
war Whole nation is still singing them, even in
this age OF jazz and swing. His compositions have
attained the one guarantee of lasting life they have
become genuine folk songs
And the wonder is that it was Foster who wrote
them Not that he did not have musical genius In
lact IKE most musical and literary geniuses, he
started young, his first song being published when
ne was only 16 Foster was born in the north near
P1ttsburgh but he became the vertiabe poet aurete
OF the slave days in the south
When he drifted down to Kentucky he seemed to
breathe IN the very soul of the coored folk He had
musical rhythms like their He had sentiments often
like theirs He understood their deep love of the very
country in which they were ensaved
sentiments often like theirs. He understood their
deep rove OF the very country in which they were
Ills va kentucky Home has become the official
song OF the Bluegrass State His "Old Black Joe"
''''1 Folks at Home" (Suwanee River) and "Massas
in the Cold, Cold Ground are American classics.
Navbe Foster had his happy days, but many of his
SONGS are mournfu And the chances are that this
sadness came from the mshaps of his own life life
which he himself helped to spoil by his improvidence
There were nights when he did not know where he
would lay his head. There were days when he was
threadbare. There were mealtinmes when he went
hungry This in spite of the fact that many of his
published SONGS brought him in good revenue There
were nights when he sat on park benches with shah
by dOWn-and-o outs
BIT nothing spoiled the natural decency of his
mind and heart. His melodies remained refined His
songs remained clean. So they carturod the fancz-
Of 10th YOUNG and old So thew gave their author
who died at 80, sure Immortality and a hold on the
atfoctions of the plain people that is hard to match
