At the beginning of new year
we make jokes about resolutions for
the New Year and our constant in
ability to live up to them. This may
be true for most Of US but the fact
remains that it is better to make
resolutions, If they are good ones,
and fall down on them than to be
content with ourselves and never
thinks Of changing. Tho old idea Of
hitching your wagon to a star is still
q good one.
Most of us are in the habit of
putting off until tomorrow what
should be done today. It is a good
thought to carry with us at the be-
ginning Of 1943 that we can live our
lives only one day at time and
that we can never catch up with
Tomorrow The things that we
put off until tomorrow are rarely
accomplished.
las one person phrased it to-
morrow we are going to overcome
our inertia and begin doing those
big things we have always planned
to do. Tomorrow we are going to
begin devoting certain number OF
evenings each week to serious read
ing or study. Tomorrow we are 60
ing to improve our personal appear
ance. our personal habits. our effici-
encv in our work. II all the wonder
fu, things that are going to be done
tomorrow could be done TODAY. what
great accomplishments we would see.
And how happier we might be.
When Senator James o. Eastland
took office in Washington at noon
"Wednesday he was escorted down
the aisle by Senator Mcclellan, OF
Tennessee, which reminds US that
Senator Bilbo is still mad because
Jim Eastland was ele~.ed and Is evi-
IDENTITY going to stay that way.
II is a time honored precedent
that when a new Senator Is elected
from a state the senior senator es'
cort. the Junior senator down the
aisles of the Senate Chambers te
take the oath of office.

to have refused to speak to Senator

land was there few weeks a1te

THOUGHTS OF THE
NEW YEAR
Let us walk softly, friend;
For strange paths lie before US, all
untold;
The new year, spotless from The
hand Of God
Is thine and mine, o friendl
Let US walk straightly, friend;
Forget the crooked paths behind US
Press on with steadier purpose on
our brow
To better deeds, o friend!
Let US walk gladly, friend;
Perchance some greater good than
we have known
Is waiting for Us, or some fair hope
flown
Shall yet return, o friend!
Let US walk humbly friend;
Slight not the heartsease blooming
round our feet;
The laurel blossoms are, not half 30
sweet
Or lightly gathered, friend
i. ,
Let US walk kindly, friend;
We cannot tell how long this life
shall lat,
How soon these precious years be
over past;
Let love walk with US, friend.
Let us walk quickly, friend;
Work with our might while lasts
our. little stay,
And help some hating comrade on
the way;
And may God guide u.s. friend!

Racing's Splukge

A number of noncombatants can't
understand why racing has come in
for such a boom and why so much
money is bet at various tracks.
This is simple enough. AS a start
er there is something like IL billion
extra dollars loose around the map,
with many spending outlets under a
blockade.
For one example, you e few
people buying cars today.
In the second instance, there is q
greater demand for quick action or
the side of thrills, which to many
only a bet can satisfy.
Belmont is sure to end its sum
mer season with the highest averag,
ever sent through track mutuels
well beyond the million dollar mark
Even with tide big crowds tina
once travelled to Santa Anita, a $780,
600 daily average was considered
on the high side.
You can understand how strong
the fever gets to be when so many
thousands are willing to walk SO
far in order to buck II or IL per
cent.
