of preparation is needed. Like
the cement foundation of a house,
resolutions must have time to set
before you can build on them.
If you are the sort of person
who needs a goal toward which
to work, set a target date on your
calendar a few weeks after JAM
uary l. If you cannot accept
deadlines. don't set a specific
date but put your resolves into
effect only after you've covered
all the preliminaries.

not by compiling all the things
you don't like about yourself.
Rather. start by listing the things
you do like!

Lost Boy, II, Is Found
On West Virginia Farm
BY the As.ociatsd Press

BERKELEY SPRINGS, w.
Va, July 27.-Eleven-year-old
Norman Mason, missing over
night in Cacapon State Park,
was found unhurt on a nearby
farm.
| Park officials said the boy,
who has impediments of speech
and hearing, was found sitting
under a tree on the farm Of
Harry Dawson, about two miles
from where he was last seen
yesterday afternoon.
Mrs. Maude Beeler, a tenant
on the farm, said she had heard
a child crying earlier in the
morning but thought nothing of
it until she heard a radio report
on the extensive search being
made for the boy. Then she
called the park Office.
Searchers who went to the
farm, located outside the park
area, said the boy was in excel
lent condition and suffered only
a few scratches on his legs and
arms. They returned him to his
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Clarence
Mason of Berkeley Springs, and
his eight brothers and sisters.

Paternalisnn

DATERNALlSM curtails individual lib
cities. Within the past generation the
gadual development of paternalism in the
central government has wiped away an
alarming amount of freedom of action and
individual liberty The great principles
enuncated in the Bill Of Rights and the
American Constitution have been abridged
through the system of bureaus constituted
under pressure and emergency psychology
by Congress at the behest Of the strong
centralized executive branch Of the Federal
Government. Possibly the last vestiges Of
the sovereignty of the states has been alb
ridgcd by the recent decision of the Su-
@sTrcmc Court of the United States in the
matter of segregation in public schools
The growth of paternalism has been
gradual. The pattern of fostering pattern
alsm upon an unsuspecting people comes
more and more into focus as we roll down
the road toward some form of government
incompatible with the original purposes Of
the Constitutions
Public welfare was one of the first
steps in the long succession of paternalism.
l'nder the public welfare act Of Congress
the Federal Government set up a vast well
fare program, which took control of all
State welfare activities. The State in turn
forced the counties, cities and towns to in
Stitute and maintain a welfare program
dictated by deral'bureaucracy. The State
of Virginia called its legislature into spc-
cial session, and one of its principal pur-
poses was to conform to the national pro-
gram.
