Peace on Earth |0 LOOK back upon the past year, and see how little we have striven, and to what small purpose, and how often we have been cow. pritly and bung back, or temerarious and rushed unwisely In; and how every day and all day long we have transgressed the law of kind ness; It may seem a parados, but in the bitterness of these discoveries a certain consolation, resides. Life Is not designed to minister to a man’s • vanity. He goes upon his long business most of the tline with a hanging head, und till the time like a child. Full of rewards and plena ure as It is—so .that to see the day. break or the. moon rise, or to meet a friend, or to hear dinner calf when he Is hungry, fill him with surprising joys—this world is yet for him no abiding city. Friendships fall through, health falls, weariness assails him; year after year lie must thumb the hardly varying record of his own weakness and folly. It Is a friendly process of detach ment. When the time comes that he should go, there need be few Illusions left about himself. Here lies one who meant well, tried a little, failed much; surely that may be his epitaph, of which lie need not be ashamed. ' Nor will he complain at the summons, which culls a defeated soldier from the field; defeated, ay, if he were Pabi or Marcus Aurelius 1—but if there Is still one Inch of fight In Ills old spirit, un dishonored. 1 Give him a march with his old bones; there, out df the glorious snn-colored earth, out of the day and tlie dust, and the ecstacy—there goes another Faithful Failure. a V I Quaint New Year Customs Try Herald Want Ad#. N SCOTLAND New Year’s day has even more Impor tance than Christmas. High land laddies- form proces sions and go from-house to house singing, and recelv- ing food and gifts. From Scotland also comes the curious superstition that it is. unlucky to take anything out of the house bn Neyz Year’s day before one has brought something In; hence members of the family may be seen carrying a piece of Coal or any small, object into the house, to prevent misfortune daring the new year. • » * A quaint New Year custom in Her- fordshire, England, is to weave black thorn into a crown, singe it slightly over a fire and stand around It repeat ing the words, “Old Cider.” The crown is then hung up for luck during the year. • • • The wassail bowl or loving cup, filled with spiced ale, wus In use in New Year celebrations In Old World countries, and children would go about the streets caroling. * • • In England December 20 was the New Year's day until the time of Wil liam the Conqueror. His coronation ocenrred January 1, hence the year was ordered to begin on that duy, England, however, gradually fell Into unison with the rest of Christendom, and began the year the 25th of March, The Gregorian calendar restored Jan uary 1 as the gateway of the year but it was not until 1752 that England adopted this date. • • » The custom of exchanging New Year presents still bolds In France and the Latin countries. PIGS FLary Gtcihai Copyright, 1011, Western Newspaper Union.* ^QUEAL, squeal, squeal” said Pinky Pig, "Grunt, grunt, grunt," said Porky Pig. "It’s tlie best thing I ever heurd of," said Brother Bacon. "It most certainly is," said Sammy Sausage. "1’vO never heurd of anything so nice," said Master Pinky Pig. And his mother added, "It’s fine, squeal, squeal, It’s fine." "I agree," said Miss Ham. And she grunted five times, one grunt after the other to show that she agreed. "What are you all talking about?" asked Ited Top, the rooster. "You dou’t know?" asked all the pigs. Oh yes, I know," said Red Top, erowlng proudly. “Then why did you ask ?” Inquired Brother Bacon. You haven’t much sense," satd R»d Top. "Of course I don’t know, or I wouldn’t have asked.” “Well did I ever,” grunted Miss Ham. "You said one moment ago that yon did know and now you say ,vou don’t know. Which do you mean? Do you know what we-were talking about or don’t you?" "Yes," said Sammy Sausage, "that-is what we would like to' know." "Well," said Bed Top, "I don’t know, and if I had I wouldn't have asked you. When I said I knew I thought you all' liud sense enough to know that I was joking. It seems that none o* you. can take a Joke.’’ “Take a joke," repeated Brother Bacon, “You say that none of us can take a joke. Well, wny should we? A Juke lsm’t anything t.o eat. What would we be doing with a Joke I’d like to know.” "Yes,” said Porky Pig, "we'd all like to know wliut we would do with a Joke." And all The pigs Bqnealed. "We'd like to know what we could do if we took a Joke. It's nothing to eat so why should, we take It?" Red Top the rooster clucked and crowed and grinned. “This Is the best Joke." "What do we care about it being tlie best Joke?" asked Brother Bacon. “We've Rlrendy told you we didn’t care ubotit a joke because It was noth lng to eut. We don't care whether It Is a best one or not. Now If you wure talking ubout a best dish of food —that would be different.” "Yes, that would be quite different," gquculed the other pigs. "I was wrong," said Rod Top grin ning. "Of course you have no wish to take a joke because it Is nothing to eat. I meant, of course, that it was a Joke when I pretended 1 knew what you were talking about just after I had asked you that question, I wouldn’t have asked you if I had known, ag I have said before: And I wouldn’t have bothered to have had a lltle Joke with you if I had thought' that you didn’t care about Joking. In fact you care about nothing but eat ing.” All the pigs grinned and twisted their .little tails. “We show we’re regular pigs,” said Brotlter Bacon. “We’ll forget,’about Jokes and Jok ing then," said Red' Top. “Tell me what 5'ou were talking about. I would — ' like to heas. A don’t know really. That's the truth. And that’s not Joke." "We were talk ing about it be ing such a good ’thing,’’ explained Miss Ham. “What is such a good thing?" asked Red Top, “This Idea of New Years reso lutions,” said Miss Ham. “You see we heard that every year around this time folks and creatures began making good resolutions. And we've made ours. We think they're fine and we hope to live up to them." “That's good,” said Red Top. “But what are your resolution's?" he asked after a moment. “To get all we can to- eat, each of us," said Miss Ham. “ami never to think or worry about anyone, hut our- R&1Y68 " "Well, I never," snl-1 Red Top. "You don’t know much about the real mean ing of good resolutions, hut what should I expect? After all your are only pigs.” "Pigs with good resolutions," re peated Miss Ham. IS SOMETHING WRONG? Thirty-Two Thousand Eloht Hundred And Forty-Throe Die, A rqcent study mntle by the Bureau Df Vital Statistics of the Georgia Stale Board of Health of percentages of death .In certain ago periods has brought out the following Interesting and astonishing facts: There were 32,843 deaths In Geor gia last year, 419 of these were deaths from typhoid and of theBe 18.3% wore of children 1-0 years old, Mularlu caused 550 deaths, the highest per cent in the series, 31.1% being In the 1-B age group. Of the 3(13 deaths from whooping cough, 98.7% were in the 1-9 year group; of the 41)8 diphtheria doutlis 96.4% were In this period; of the 2,6-13 deaths from tuberculosis, 3.2% were In the period; 1,6% of the 482 pellagra deaths occcurreJ in chil dren under nine yours old; even the 1,262 deaths from cancer had o .(1% Incidence in this age group. Tho fig ures that show the most criminal neg ligence (since the simplest protection on the part of the parent would avoid most of them), are those showing lliut deaths from accidents gtvo 26.9%, the highest percentage of all, to children from 1-9 years of age. 1b something wrong? With the ago period 1-9 ropAisentod by percent uges, —and high percentages,—of ueaths un der every heading, the only conclusion that can be drawn is, that we are noi considering our children the "nation's beBt asset" nor yet are we giving much consideration to the future, if the "liqpo of the future" Is allowed to be sub ject to conditions so ruinous. There is something wrong; something wrong with the nation, utate, county, city, community, school or home; something wrong with the child's food, his clothes, his reBt, or care. The Division of Child Hygiene, State Board of Health, will help you solve the problem of what you and youF community can do for your child.
