the legislator of the first and novelty
of the second. Custom, therefore,
looks to things that axe past, and faah
ion to things that are present, but
both are somewhat hlind as to things
that are to come. What will be the
length of the skirts in 1924?
It is surprlging to what an extent
our likes and diglikes are creatures of
custom. Our modes of belief, thoughts
and opinions are moled? and shaped
by what has been the prevailing moSe
of thinking heretofore. Though we
are, indeed, not so given to the wor
ship of past Institutions as some peo
ple, yet we all acknowledge the pre
vailing power of custom, of person&l

stand alone In any matter of concern,

promulgates It, but fall Into the ranks
of Its followers and worshipers.

THE WILSON FOUNDATION ?
There has been a generous response
to the proposal of establishing a mil
lion dollar fund to be called the Wood
w Wtlnon foundation; but if wo hint
responded to this noble cause as quick
ly as we res pond to the mo Ting-pic
ture "fad," it wouldn't hare been nec
essary to extend the campaign until
next week. The income or this fund
Is to be used for notable and valuable
"service to democracy, liberal thought
public welfare, or peace through jus
tice."
This Is certainly a perfectly honest
and worthy purpose, fair to all, and
deserving of every man's and wom
an's attention. The true view Is stn"
ed in an editoriaV in the New York
Times: "The Wilson Foundation is
to foster perpetually the theory an!
practice, the high, generous conception
and fruitful activity of public servi. <?
to mankind, such as Mr. Wilson his
held. Illustrated, lived, and done."
Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt, stat- I
at the meeting that the practical wo k
ing of the fund would be as follow?:
"The prize might go to ine Mayor >f
a city, the Governor of a state, to
president or cabinet member, a sci<
fist or an editor, an author whose b<*ok
has influenced the thought o t the p--?>
ple for good?In fact, to any man or
group of men who have had a hard
problem to tackle and have solved it
to the benefit of the people at large."
These are some of the many illustra
tions of what the "Woodrow Wilson
Foundation" might accomplish.

MY ATTITUDE TOWARDS TH K"
NEW YEAR.
For many days previous to New
Year's Day each season, I stt in sllem e
drawing up a list of Resolutions. At
the time, my Intentions are perfectly
tood; afterwards my conscience is t
least at tase, T cannot consriencous
ly let the olJ yeaV slip into the new
W'tbout a few New Year'* resolutions.
Even though I know I will brea-i ?t
least half of them the fol,owing week,
I feel better some how for having
writUn them down.
This year, however, I aip g'>in.: to
make my resolution* mean more to
me than Just a means to ease my con
science by a few vague ideas of hat
I ought to do. I mean business' I
am going to enforce concentration
where procrastination has worked w
long. Why did I take this rub step?
Because I realise that It la absolutely
necessary If I graduate this jre.ir.
Putting off until tomorrow what i ca?
do today haa long been my favorit*
?Ice; consequently I have headed my
list of resolutions with a saylni: of
Benjamin Franklin, "Never put off
until tomorrow that which you can iio
today"; and under that I have written
In parno thesis: Especially your school
work. It U easy to do the things that
amuse one and let the necessary
things wait until a more convenient
time.
Another thing that I took very par^
tlcular pains to write waa to study
each day at home at leant three hours
without thinking during those threa
hour* what I would do tne next thre*.
Thar* are two thing? that I must do
for myself: reform and concentrate. I
can't uae some one else's will power;
I hay? to use my own. Owing to that
I
fact I have derided to begin the New
Year with: "If you don't succeed try.

The Loulsburg High School Basket
Bait team has played sight-games this
season, winning six and losing two.
The first game, which was played with
Frankllnton, was attended by-a very
large crowd, no doubt the largest that
has ever attended a game in I?uls
borg. The aiUlvllt aoeuctatiun of the
school is very grateful to those attend
lng.
But since the^Brtt game the crowd
has been decreasing instead of in
creasing. a tact which is very much
{to the disappointment ot the players.
,We all like to see a large crowd be
it (jtutma to give tny hnyn _more
"pep" and encouragement; it also
seems to put more fight tn the old
game.
) We hope that the crowrl^C?ttend
the next game will exeeedaJl the
crowds ot the games past. So let
everyone that can possibly do so. be
present at the next game. The little
-gum w Uit.ii iuu nay m 1116 fl66T is not
paid for nothing: it all goes to EEe
High School Athletic Association. The
Ixwttsburg High School Basket^ Ball
, team is looking to the citizens of the
j town ton support.
We thank you again tor your pat
-rrrrrage ami we hope to se? you at the
next game.

i WHY I LIKE WINTER.
One day in winter my old pal, Fred,
and I decided we would go hunting
the next day if it snowed. Tt had Took
ed very much like snow all day; so. I
went to Fred's house to get him to
spend the night with me. Tor I was al
most sure it was going to snow. Hav
ing got together, we had gone to bed
but an hour or two when we looked
out the window and saw it was snow
.tar.
' The next morning wo got up bright
and early. When we looked out of
the window, the whole world seemed
a solid mass of snow and ice. We
could hardly wait to put our clothes
on. or even eat breakfast, before we
were out skating and snow-ball ins-:
| We had been out but .-n hour when>we
.were called to breakfast or whK'h we
;ate heartily.
After eating, we started cm our hunt
ing trip with plenty o^ ^uns and am
Imunition. We had been out about ten
minutes when, suddenly, in front" of
? us an old rabble jumped up. Both of
us fired, but missed. What, a misfor
tune! ^
| After hunting around looking for
gam^, some of which wo Killed, we
found, to our surprise, that we were
eight miles from home?and the weath
er below zero! Naturally we decided
that since the weather was so cold and
rainy, we had better turn bacK towards
home. On the way back wo killed
eight rabbits, four ducks, ten birds,
and a turkey--all of which gave us a
good stake for our supper at the camp
at which we had decided to stop.
) We had been at the camp only a
little while when the other boys, who
had come out from town, suggested
that we cook supper. We had not
j eaten any dinner: bo of course we
[ajrreed. cooking all of our came with
out any seasoning, eating tt without
much bread, going to bed without any
water, and awaking In the night with
out any health, sick and groaning for
dear lito?an unfortunate condition
caused by greediness and not by win
ter.
