The efforts of the individual eiti- gzen may accomplish something.. The co-operation of a collective people will produce notable results. - - . . Collective co-operation 1is only possible where confidence and good will exist, and where there is a de- termination to utilize this combina- tion to the ultimate good of all. The man who holds a grouch against his neighbor can not suc- cessfully pull in harness with that neighbor so long as that grouch ex- ists. Lose the grouch. The man who disparages and un- dermines the reputation of another can not expect the community in gen- eral to think well of the assassinator of character. Speak gently and use the soft pedal. The man who says “go ahead” can not expect to keep pace with the hustler who says ‘‘come on.” Step lively and get there. And one man who says “I Will” is worth a hundred of those who say “I Can’t.” * o x This is the time of year when the hopper of time ici filled with new resolutions. But it is more profit- able to act than to resolute. Let us make this a year of action, of deeds, and of results. Let us make this more than a col- lection of individuals. Let us make it a community of people with one aim, one ambition, and one great pur- pose in life, and let us make that purpose the good of man and woman- kind in general and of this commu- nity in particular. If we work collectively and earnest- ly and energetically we will achieve success, but if we labor individually we will accomplish but little. * - - The road of life is long, and stormy, barriers bar our way. But many hands make light work of the heaviest burdens, and collective might may roll the heaviest barriers away. We may each pursue our own chosen vocations, and yet all labor in the common cause of a better and more prosperous town and country- side. Two horses pulling in one direc- tion will get the load there. But when one pulls and the other balks the load stands still. Will 1917 find us a community of loyal pullers, or a divided aggrega- tion of pullers and balkers who ac- complish nothing but to stand still? * * * Nineteen seventeen will tell the story, and you will put the words in the mouth of the teller. What are those words going to be? ‘Will they be loyalty, cohesion, ag- gressiveness, success? Or will they be disloyalty, suspicion, disintegra- tion, disaster? = - - A year of promise is ahead, but promise never makes good unaided and alone. We must each grasp the opportu- nities with which nature has pro- vided us, and turn those opportuni- ties to individual and collective weal. To do otherwise will be to stand still while others march on to vie- tory and to success. Shall we stand, or shall we march? You tell. Have you noticed dispatches from other cities near Bemidji where Christmas day brought with it a large number of ‘“‘drunks,” as shown by the police records? That’s one thing Bemidji didn’t have and not even ONE graced the interior of the city jail. That’s speaking mighty well for Bemidji people and also for Chief Ripple and his efficient police- men. We noticed that at the Grand thea- ter last night there was presented a comedy entitled *“Skirts,” but as we have seen several skirts that we con- sidered comedies, we went to the meeting of the city council. _— It may be true-that this world is full of good fellows, but at times we realize it is also a whale of a world. |= Lucille Fussenfeathers, who resides in the north part of Bemidji, re- ceived a handsome cameo lavalliere for Christmas, and we understand she i9 going to keep it to wear with her new. “See More” waist next summer. President Wilson wants the United States to assume control of wireless telegraphy, but so far as we are con- cerned we would like to see the old boy control the price of eats. One day we are told that skirts will be three inches shorter next season and the next day we hear they are to be ankle length. This uncer- tainty is very exasperating. If there is any one in Bemidji who intends to, use a ‘“hammer” during 1917 we would suggest that he get a.| job on an M. & I section driving spikes. First Feeding Bottle. Possibly a hollow gourd constituted the first baby's feeding bottle. Torn from its parent tree, its edible interior would have found its way to the stom- ach of its adult plucker, after which the hollow shell would be filled with milk or other liquid refreshment for the satisfaction of the infant. In tropical countries, again, the cocoanut would constitute a natural feeding bot- tle, already filled with the necessary nourishment. ‘Without, however, indulging in spec- ulation of this kind it may be noted that the archaic vase room at the Brit- ish museum contains specimens of feeding bottles—tetinoe, archaeologists call them—dating back to between (GO0 and 700 years before CLrist. These very early babies’ bottles are usually globular in shape, are elaborately dec- orated and are covered with small knobs which, it is conjectured, were used to hang tiny bells upon. In short, the feeding bottle of those days was algo a rattle and a picture book com- bined. THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER THURSDAY.
