OLD MAN HABIT I 7

Along about this time Of year that
cracking sound one heaFs is not the worlo
splitting apart at the seams. 1t is merely
New Years resolutions breaking under
the relentless pressure bf habit.
II wasn't very long ago that a great
MANY persons. their eyes shining with high
purpose. resolved they would mend. their
WAYS. Each of us takes a mental account
ing of himself occasionally and often is
dismayed. as we'll as amazed, at the re-
suits Too many important things remain
undone that should be done, too much time
is wasted in trivialities, too many dollars
and TOO much vitality are frivoled away IN
self indulgence in minor vices.
The end of the year is the logical time
10 desert the old methods, with a clean, ur-
sullied page of life opening ahead. So,
spurred on by our better selves and per-
haps by some urging from the little wom-
an. we set down either on paper or by
mental notes a list of things we ought not
and will not do It's definite now. We've
made an oath to ourselves and we feel the
better for it.
This Joyous feeling of having done a
worthwhile thing buOys up the morale i'm
mensely For time the maker of New
Years resolutions lives in an atmosphere
of such high self esteem that it approaches
smugness. But one day habit slyly causes
the forbidden cigarette to be lighted, or
lifts the hand containing the highball.
Then habit soothes the hurt conscience by
saving that it was only the first offense
and can be excused.
Deep in our hearts we know better.
The resolution has been broken and that's
that Broken once, it will be broken twice
and again and again. So there is nothing
left TO do but wait until New Years Day.

But there is great deal+of comfort to
be found in this annual procedure. It~is
that humanity still has. the abilityto real
lie It is enmeshed in its own frailties. And
even If its attempts to break away are
shOrt-hyed, it deserves E for Effort.

LET US HOPE SO

Mayor Demeritt was call set" to re-
count to President Truman, had he not
cancelled his plans to visit Florida, inter-
esting historical events about Key West
When was work begun on the Mar
tello Towers? Shortly after the beginning
of the Civil War.
gDa When was Fort Taylor constructed?
ut was first built in 1845, destroyed by the
ol846 hurricane and rebuilt in 1847.
elar2And SO on and on. Mayor Demeritt
was prepared also to explain the cry of
Wreck ashore!' that appears in almost
all stories that use Key West for their
background
There they are, sturdy seafarers,
lOlling along the shore, swapping the same
story for the hundredth and one time
Looking at them, you would not think that
it was possible to stir them to activity
But let them hear the cry of Wreck
ashore!' and they are converted instantly
into live wires
Or it may be in the dead of night, while
all the city sleeps, except few men who
have just come ashore from schooner
They saw a wreck piled high on a reef,
and they make the rounds of the city, cry
ing. Wreck ashore!"
q. In few minutes the shore front on.
the northwesterlyi side of thesisland is a
lbs sslh3iye of activity. Grub and seabags are
thalOenor aboard and this boat $aifIsnn1l then
lIanother and still another, till halfaaahun

might. Z. 8 ae 81 ~ nol6
Yes, there is much of an interesting
nature that Mayor Demeritt could have
told the President on his ride about and
around the city. Probably, the President
will visit us later in the winter. Let us
hope so.

of Staff, says that the Army intends to
discharge every eligible soldier by next

100000 men needed on that date, the
policy-making agencies of the Government
wifi have to decide what vital function,
now assigned to the Army, will be drop
ped.
The Commander of our forces during
the war in Europe says that men with
thirty months of service will, be discharged
or returning home by April both and that
the same would be true on June 30th for
two-year-men. He seems to be somewhat
pessimistic about getting enough volun-
teers to meet the responsibilities and COM
mitments given to the Army in foreign
countries.
The complex task of occupation re-
quires the patrol of 1000 miles of Ger
many and Austria, the force to prevent re-
newal of resistance and men to guard bill
lions of dollars worth of property in all
parts of the world.
We have serious doubts whetherw the
Army will heAable tp get the .voluAtee -

devoutly that her father might
change his mind this once and
stay at home.
Not desiring to eavesdrop on
their conversation, she made her
way down to the lower hall,
where she stood looking out
through the gathering darkness.
She thought of Burk in his beau

heart that he. too. would be

afternoon and they had talked to-
gether for a long time. She had
come away feeling safe and se-
cure in his love. But now she
knew that the electricity in the
atmosphere was having It's effect
on her nerves. She felt iittery
and apprehensive.
She turned at the sound of her
fathers step behind her. He had
never looked more handsome. He
was wearing dinner clothes and
walked erectly and with deter
m1natlon. But there was a look
on his face that gave her the
information that he had been

"She has plenty of people to
look after her and any of you
can do what l could. If you'll step
aside. Edith. I'd like to get out
through that door,"
She shrugged and stepped
aside, knowing that in his present
mood any more that she might
say would only anfagonize him.
She saw him get into his gray
roadster and drive off into the
fast-gathering storm.
She stood there until il began
to rain. She heard Jake rushing
about to put down the windows.
When he came back he said,
Dinners ready, Miss Edith, if We
can get anybody to eat it.' q 20
I'll call them," Edith said and
turned to the stairway There she
stopped for Barbara, stood at the

: Edith and Jake lifted the. un-
Wieldy figure to the bed and
Edith called Josie to administer
ammonia while she called DR..
Bennett. The storm was raging
now and old Eugenia was Whimp-
ering in the hallway.
Later the doctor said, "She's
had a shock of some kind. She'll

DEPENDS ON REPLAcEMENTs

Continuation of the draft is stof vital
concern to men overseas" declares Secre-
tary of War Patterson, who reports sold
iers overseas, with two years service or
more, eager to get home.
Mr.. Patterson properly emphasizes
-the. dependence of men overseas upon re-
placements for their well-earned release
Unless an adequate flow of men can be
sent abroad, the Army will have to retain
veterans longer. This is inevitable.
There is another argument in favor
of the permanence of the Se1ective Service
Act. 1t represents fair effort to secure
the number of soldiers and sailors neces-
sary for the defense of the nation We
know of no other way that an adequate
supply of trained men can be assured.
1t is wise to give the volunteer system
a thorough trial If it develops the man
power that the nation requires. there will
be no use to continue Selective Service. If
it does not, there must be some method by
which to make military service eompul-
sorry.
