To Greet the New Year
N' YEAR’S EVE is the time
of good resolutions. This
coming year, we resolve, we
kill do this and that which we
have hitherto neglected, and we
will be careful not to do a number
of things which we have always
known that we shouldn’t but
somehow simply couldn’t resist.
It’s lots of fun at a New Year's
Eve party to play Good Resolu
tions This is done by distribut
ling slips of paper to every guest
I present and getting them to write
■down, without any signature, a
■ list of the things which they have
Iresolved to do and not to do dur
ling the coming year. Then the
Ihostess reads aloud the lists of
I good resolutions, and the guests
Itry to guess who is the author of
[each.
I The resolutions come out in
■funny fashion, and are most re
■vealing. The guests who resolve
■‘to diet,” “not to flirt,” “not to
Emoke so much,” "to take more
Exercise,” “to go to church more
■regularly,” “to do some good read
ing,” "to save some money” are
■generally the first to deny ve-
Kemently their authorship of any
Euch idea. But their blushes or
■self-consciousness betray them, or
[else the others’ knowledge of their
characters, and this game is good
for many a laugh.
A Good Resolution
One of the best resolutions you
can make at such a party, how
ever, especially if you are the
hostess, is to serve a supper which

will appeal to your merry guests.
Here’s a menu for eight which
has been tried and tested, and
voted a complete success: •
Cream of Mushroom Soup t
Toasted Whole Wheat Fingers
Lobster Cutlets
Creamed Peas in Timbale Cases
Sweet Pickled Pear Salad
Coffee Cocoanut Qream
lSuts Coffee
Cream of Mushroom Soup:
Drain the mushrooms from an 8-
ounce can, and put them through
a grinder. Cook in top part of
double boiler for five minutes with
one tablespoon water, one table
spoon lemon juice and two tea
spoons salt. Make a white sauce
of four tablespoons butter, four
tablespoons flour and three cups
milk. Add the mushrooms and
one cup cream, and keep hot in
double boiler.
Fish and Fruit
Lobster Cutlets: Make a thick
white sauce of two tablespoons
butter, four tablespoons flour, one
cup milk, one-half teaspoon salt
and one-eighth teaspoon pepper.
Add one egg yolk, one teaspoon
lemon juice and the minced con
tents of two cans of lobster, and
let stand over night or until quite
cold. Shape into cutlet or chop
shapes, dip in crumbs, then in
egg, and then in crumbs again,
and fry in deep fat. Insert a piece
of macaroni in the pointed ends
to represent a bone. Serve with
tartar sauce.
THE JACKSON HERALD. JEFFERSON, GEORGIA
Sweet Pickled Pear Salad: Ar
range eight pickled pear halves
on individual lettuce nests. Gar
nish with one-half cup whipped
heavy cream, one-half cup mayon
naise and one-half cup sweet
pickle syrup.
A Corking Dessert
Coffee Cocoanut Cream: Soak
three-fourths tablespoon gelatin in
four tablespoons cold water. Make
a custard of one egg yolk, one-half
cup brown sugar and three-fourths
cup hot strong coffee. Add one
tablespoon butter, pour over the
gelatin, and stir until dissolved.
Cool. When it begins to set, fold
in one stiffly-beaten egg, white,
one-half cup whipped heavy cream
and one can of moist cocoanut.
Serve very cold piled in glasses
with whipped cream on top.
After this supper you’ll find
that your guests are feeling
stronger, but that their good
resolutions have grown unaccount
ably weaker. That one about
dieting, for instance, may be a
little bit modified, and the girls
look so pretty and the men so
handsome that a trifle of flirting
doesn’t seem so heinous a crime.
It’s fun to play Good Resolutions
both before and after supper, and
to note the changes in them that
the good food and the merry time
have wrought. It’s the last
chance to change them, you know,
before the bells begin ringing at
midnight, and your party wel
comes the New Year.*

What Next For Permanency
W. H. Faust
The answer to this question is
going to absorb the best thought of
the leaders of this ago for a long
time to come. The President’s poli
cies have helped tremenduously so
far. And surely he is right in feel
ing that he is warranted to spend as
much money in rehabilitating a
country, if such is necessary, as is
spent in war, which destroys its re
sources of men and moneys.
How fine it is to see the forestry
boys at work cleaning up ajid bright
ening up things, around over the na
tion. What a splendid thing it is to
clear up railroad tracks and street
car lines in our cities, ami school
yards and highway ides and every
other work that is making our fields,
forests and cities take on better
looks. This should be done, v and
more of it, to be sure, until the un
employed are at profitable work.
For work, and not charity, is going
to help our nation.
Now, if prosperity is to be at all
permanent, it must be as ihe people
find themselves located on farms and
able to make thereon a livelihood.
The permanent thing seems to be
to grade and surface permanently
roads until people could live in the
country and use cars in going back
and forth to their towns. The aver
age farm in Georgia is hard to reach
by auto. Roads are rotten when it
is wet. Families do not desire to
get out of touch with the world, and
feel that they are isolated entirely.
These roads, if built, would enable
many to get out of our crowded
cities and towns, and really live.
Competition is growing so keen,
with improved machinery thrown in
for good measure, that it is going to
be increasingly difficult for many
tt> make a living.
This road building would mean
much in many ways. More homes
wmuld be builded and occupied.
More cars be made and sold. More
business produced, and everybody
would be helped.
Again, country people desire con
veniences along with others. Elec
tricity would help make the house
wives more contented. Lights on
the farms and power would start a
wonderful amount of new’ business.
This would set multitudes to work.
Banks are loaning money to good
parties with worth while security.
Why not move up in a big way and
let the government sell farms on
long time payments at low rates of
interest? Business men have sig
nally failed in their greed and self
ishness. Let the government step
in and help in a real way. And if
such is not done, then we already
have evidence of a convincing sort
that the government w’ill have to
support those who, because of con
ditions, are unable, to care for them
selves.
Farms must be rehabilitated. The
land must be occupied, or else our
nation goes as did Rome and Greece.
There are many ways to keep people
on the land. President Roosevelt is
a far seeing statesman. It is hoped
he will be backed continually in his
progressive program. And such a
project as is being commenced in
Georgia by the government in tryng
to set up self supportng farm com
munities should occupy first place in
the rehabilitation thinking ol the
masses.
WHAT BUILDS A NATION
What builds a nation’s pillars high
And its foundations strong!
What makes it mighty to defy
The foes that round it throng?
It is not gold. Its kingdoms grand
Go down in battle shock;
Its shafts are laid on sinking sand,
Not on abiding rock.
Is it the sword? Ask the red dust
Of empires passed away;
The blood has turned their stones to
rust,
Their glory to decay.
And is it pride? Ah that bright
crown
Has seemed to nations sweet;
But God has struck its lustre down
In ashes at His feet.
Not gold, but only men can make
A people great and strong;
Men who, for truth and honor’s sake
Stand fast and suffer long.
Brave men who work while others
sleep,
Who dare while others fly—
They build a nation’s pillars deep
And lift them to the sky.
—Emerson.
