Phonie 50 Bwavil THOUGHTS FOR THE YOUNG Habit, in tume, becomnes a comn- pelling life force, whether it is a good habit or a bad onie. The habit of study, formed early In life, compels young men to ob- serve and learn and carnies them a long way~ toward aducation. Once fixed, it operates automatically. The eyes or the ears repoýtimpressions. The mind instantly bagins to analyze them. So with industry. Let a mnan who lias ledl a busy and useful life try to retire-at fifty'and hae whhl find it utterly impossible. Me must be --doing something. -,ma eod One distinguishedma deod many years of his if e to building up a great magazine. When hae had accumulated more money than hae could spend hae thought ha woul'd "take it easy "ýfor his ýremaining years.1 Since then hie has been busier than lie ever was befora, doing public service. Mis habit of industry was too strong to break. Me simply could not take it easy. Good habits are harder to fonin than bad ones. But astablish thern and they are aven harder to break. They constitute a force that carrnes 0many a mediocre man far bayond his 1brighter brothers on the road to prosperity. GOING STRONG It doesni't senii more than a day or two ago thatwe sat'down and recordad a few impressions as we were about to take the step into a ~New Year. Whiat a brom-ida it isý to say, "How timie-fiies!" 0f course, b qling ahead, thara is the natural inc'lination to beginI chiecking off varions items in relation to resolutions-"Pll be more of thisý an'd lesa- of that" we say and then,1 aftar about teft and >a half days,I we're not doing either and we hegin performing, like the trainad things of habit we are, along just about the usual linos. Business bas been such a varied and up and down kind of thing dur- ing the past few years. We left slump and "no business" conditions to find ourselves wvorlpg,- with a frenzied desperation to supply an-n ou, of anythîng. Then we tookl a httie rest to celebrate and relievel the strain; but couldn't resist the de-!ý mand much longer and were soon wvýorking at top spaed and top 'prices. iWe fiew, we soared, we hit the highi altitud'es and then we crashed-ba- fore we could count six.

So, ahi in ahl, if 1923 doesn't re- present good business, it will be be- cause of som-ething unforeseen. Staady concentrated effort with, enough pus-h and pull wil make for viètory and success. YVes! 1923 looks altogetherlike a big itemi on the credit side of "Mlap- piness"; but a few g-ood and btter resolutZons, actually carried out in - business practîce, will help mnost of uis to evoni greater success.

Regardless of the righ-lts of France àin entering the Ruhir valley, every- body., adiits that it is fraughIt witl the iminiiiient possibilities of anothe]' European wa,*ýr. It mnay have been Lthe onlY course for F'rance to have taken under -the circumistances; il mnay have been that had she not taký en~ it shie would neyer have g-ot, her reparations; it mnay be true that ÇIier_ miany was trying to escape her obli- tgations and France was forced to this act-however this mnay aI1libe, one thing- is certain, that it miay be fuhtwith miost terrible circu- stances for the future. It has wid- enèd the breacli between Germiany and France.a hundred-fold. There. was no outlookf or permanent peace, stability of civilization and econoic recovery of Euepe except Germiany and Franrce could learn to live to- gether in golwl and mnutult trust. Sonie successful steps ha(l been un- dertaiken toward the establishitig of this g-ood-will, especially thrlough the kinidly agency of the churcýhes and labor groups of other nations. This hias ahÎ come to naught. The action of France has solidified bothi the Ger- niant people and catused the fire of hatred to, burn' as it hardlyv burned during the war, and will sohilfy thý French people as one act after an- other against the French, surely fol- lows, 50 that they will hate Germ-any as neyer before. Already this is beipg accomiplished before our eyes. Every'body dreads the future, for the war miay break out again at any moment ais this hatred .grows, andl as Germany becomies more and more stubborn uand France more and more aggressive in the invasion. We should not be surprised to hear the newsboys cryingl under our windows at any moment, "War between, France and Gerimany begun"! This wouhdl meanl that Russia would join forces withi Germiany at the first momtent; that Poland and other nia- tions would soon be drawn in. Tur- key wouldl leap to armusLat once, for she is oily waiting for the slightest rift bet-ween Great Britain and Ft'rance to be-ginlher invasion of Eur-ope. In a week ail the Balkans would1 be in the wvar-then Great Britain and Italy. This is not idle ùreaming. This. is whiat every statesman. in Great Britain and on the Continent ia saying. It is wýhat- aIl the far-seei.ng -,tatesiiin of Amierica are seeing- and saying. It is what is on"the front page of every journ~al whose editor kn1ows any- thing- of the conditions in Europe. Everybody in Europe is living over a po-wder nmagazine, and France whetheÉ justifiably, necessarily, or not, is playing with lire. The question that every thought- - ful Am-erýcan is asking at just this moment is, What will happen to Amierica? It is not njecessary to hazard any guesses or suppositions to answer this question. The log-ic of events answers. Exactly that will happeni which happened in 1918 -ynly we imagine ilt ewil happe-il sooner: we -will be in the war. Thiere is no way on earth to keep out of it. AUl our rights wil! be jeopard- ized; Amnerican property will be des- trôyed; 'American ceitizens will be killeid; and as Japant and China enter it, as they surely will, things will happeil in. the Pacific, and scion it will' be alh the wvorld ag-ain as in 1914-1920. It inav lbe put down as a Euclidean axiom, that ail wars of the future w-Ilbe world wars. We are a1l one family, living, in one ,house. Space has been swept aw7%ay. Two nations cannot figlit'each other without ljraggipg in alil the rest of the ýworld any more than two in- dividuals can caïrry on a pistol fight at the f1amiilyT table without involvrng the whole family.

At the samne time tlhat aIl the statesmýiian of Great Britain, Italy, Sweden, Sw'wPzerl'and and Molland (and' many Frenchmen who are not ciuite in symipathy wýith their governi- ment) are saying that war seems imminent, or at least inay come, they are saying that the United States couldl prevent it wýould she only be willing. to caîl the nations together,- or off er to mediate betwean the per- plexed and embittered nations, or, best of aIl, Join the League of Na- tions and insist that ahi tiiese prob- lemis--Gerrnany and France, Turkey and the Allies, ail of themi-be sen t there for consideration and possible solution.

A. H. Moore, M. A., at the University of Toronto e recently, on "The Mission of the 1-Weekly Newspaper", this significant il paragraph was given: "The metro- r politan daily gives its readers a plct- ti ure of world news at a glance. 1 efheard Premier Mackenzie King Say -paper is Gesigned to give to the hur- rried man of affairs a glince at world -events as an interlude betiwveen! - courses at the breakfast table, and sis then cast aside as he rushes out to' ahis dally duties. Not so the weekly. BIt is a visitor to the home.' It is - kept until time for leisure reading - -i found. It goes inlto homes where 7it is read from first to la-st. It «ômres 2into intimate contact with the people and can therefore deal far more in- tim-ately with personal and commun- *ity affairs. Because he realizes this and apprecîatçs the importance of smaîl inci dents as well as great events, the editor of the weekly pap- er is flot limpatient of these details, ~personal items and local news of 1every ýdescription and character. He' ;knows that, somewhere he is cheeripg tsome heart that feels its loneliness .and isolation, that he is enabling 1some neighborhood to express its corporate if e, to realize its exist- ence, and to feel tha~t it, too, is an integral part of the great world of affairs." BRIEF SKETCH 0F DICKENS Charlés Dickens, famlous English novelist, was born at Landport, Eng- lard, February 7, 1812, and died June 9), 1870. When Dickens was nine years old his father wvas reduced to straitened cireumstances and had to live in onie of, the poorer districts of London. Dickens ,reelved a little education, but was -sooin placed in a blacking warehouse, wher e did c1rudgery.. He later became a clerk in an attorney's office. After a time his father's circumýtances be- came improved and lie returned to 5chool, where he studied shorthand with the intention of becoming- a newýspaper reporter. His early en- gagements were with the Mirror of Parliament and the 1True Sun and later with the Morning Chronicle, in which the firse series of the "Sket- ches by Boz" brought him to publice notice.' Wîth the appearancepofi "Pickwick Papers" in 1836, his suc-1 cess was assured. Other works soon \followed, includjng "Oliver Twvist', in which the conduct of the work'houses was exposed. Soon after followed the exposure of the cheap boarding schools in "Nicholas Nick- leby" and later the weakness of home training in "Domibey and Son". In 1842 hie visited Italy. Upon his retuirn he edited the Daily News. in 1850 he became editor of Household Words and'in 1859 started "All the Year Round". Other works of Dick- ens include "A Tale of. Two Cities", "David Copperfield", -,f'The Old Curiosity Shop" and "A Christmas Carol", these being a few of the most widely read. ORONO CREAMERY Better Seruice Being Planned. The Orono Creamiery Co., are en- deavoring to build up a greater home market for the dairy farmers of Dur- haml, and are making a special appeal to the farmers' for'cdoser co-opera-1 tion in this effort. The more cream the company get the better prices- they- are able to pay as'1 there is little difference in the cost of haul- ing a full load or a haîf load. The convenience of having- trucks caIll at your door an.d taking on your cream, instead of havîng to hitch up and deliver at station, mlust be some con- sideration to the farmer-especially, in the busy season of the year-anid with the Creamiery you have no un- easiness about your cheques-instead of monthly payments they now pur- pose to- pay twice a month.
