There are some issues that all

Is foolishness Of the first water. But
to insist that you must belong

extreme degree Of self-centered-

Some of the basic principle and
problems all can work togther on
are: the citizenship for Issei, the
development and support Of fair

restrictive covenants, and various
other movements to more adequate

circular skirts and pulled sleeves

Straighter, simpler lines always are
good when managed attractively,
and, adapted to the latest tend, as
new and smart for older or heavier
women. Not everyone can wear

A girl can overdo the long skirt

The romantic Gibson girl look
will continue into spring with
wonderful blouses edged in lace or
softly tailored, worn with circular
or pleated skirts, the floppy or at
least big straw hat, straw baskets
in place of purses, parasols and
matching gloves.
I think you win find lots Of pink

| national politics OF the Asiatir
world.
Ar THE CLOSE
.,sof the nineteenth century
events were happening In China
which greatly affected the United
States position IN the Fsr East. Tia
Middle Kingdom was being carved
up BY Japan, Germany, France,
Russiz and Great Britain and sett-
ing up ''spheres Of influence" In
China.
The United ststes had not taken
part IN the scramble for Chinese
territory In lso7-1sss, but we wer.
just reswakcning to the importance
|of foreign politics. Not only was the
+ United States interest In the Psci-
fic more enhanced By her new terri
tories. but during the years 1855
1893 the American nation went
through . transformation, emerging

Of western imperialism. replaced
Russia on the Asiatic mainland as
the power to be rcckoned with.
Japan rapidly went ON her policy
Of expansion. Afanchuria was made
her private sphere Of interest. Ko-

the First World War, Japan's I'M
perialistic ambitions were revealed
IN her 'Twcnty-one Demands" up-

LOOKING FORWARD

Not having reliable crystal BAN,
we can't look into the future with
any degree Of certainty. but we
know that 1913 win prove to be .
memorable year II for only two
reasons.
First Of all, It's LEAP YEAR.
This Is o phenomenon which oc-
ours every four years, and is
marked by an extra day which Is
tackled on to the month NJ Feo-
ruary. We know some people who are
born on February 20. and they are
going to be very happy because
they can celebrate their birthday
this year without going into such
false pretences as pretending that
February rs Is just the same as
the 18th. Another thing about
Leap Year-it's one long Sadie
Hawkins Day for those. girls who
just can't seem to maneuver the
boy friend into a proposal. Tradi-
ton has 1t that, during Leap Year,
the fair sex has the privilege Of
popping the question, and that
any man who turns q girl down
must recompense her wounded
feelings by purchasing her a new
dress. It's going to be O tough year
for the bachelors. we can see that

st the Republican standard bearer
and God only knows who that b
going to be. There win be a furious
battle for the Republican nominal
ton, Of that there can be little
doubt, as the Republicans figure
that this Is going to be their year
to end the, long Democratic lease
On the White House Alongswith the
presidential election. OF course, win
be elections to Congress and to
various state offices. and legislative
determinations on such important
matters as the income tax and uni
versal military training, all Of
which win be passed on by Con-
gress alert to possible repercus-
siors at the polls In November.
Yes. 1913 Is going to be an inter-
esting year for the bachelors and
the politicians, If for nobody else.
GOOD RESOLUTIONS
The making Of resolutions is an
other ancient tradition attached to
the New Year. With most people,
ourselves included, these brave new
resolutions are observed for only
few days, after which the old
habits and frailities of human ma
ture reassert themselves. and the
resolutions pass into the limbo Of
forgotten things, to be resurrected
only with the coming of another
New Year.
Well, this year we are going to
try to be different We are going
to. make only one resolution, and
strive to keep that resolution as long
as possible: 1--WE hereby resolve to
get things done on time this year,
as early as possible and not at the
last minute" We know that this re-
solution, II adhered to. win keep Ye

His goodness the conference of hu-

They desired nothing more out of
life than to make of their people

case might be. In a word, it
dreamed and prophesied of the
ideal society and even legislated
for it, but never got down to build
it.
Yet, this disparity between faith
and conduct, these habitual back
slidings and innumerable frustra-
tions, much as they tormented the
people, never hardened into cynic-
ism or pessimism. Israel wrestled
with it's conscience and no less
with an inscrutable Providence
that paid it double for all its sins.
If it laid bare in it's national lit
erature it's own evil doing with an
openness and candor that no peo-
pie was ever to emulate, it also
demanded of the Judge of all the
earth an accounting for chastising
the innocent and making the gull

desert it's God, nor cease to vex
Him; nor would it despair either
of it's own ultimate regeneration
or of the salvation of mankind.
And it was out of these apostasies
and wrestlings and aspirations
that the Bible came into being.

His descendants, or at any rate
some of them, brooded on this
God with such constancy and con-
centration that it became the pas
sion of their being to mold hu-

again would they recognize pro-

the empire builders and hoarders
of wealth on the misery and pow
