For they mean so much more to hu- nan progress, morally, mentally, physically, every way, than the “Never Again” resolutions. -They point the road to better things, to more desirable things, to a more valued life, while at the same time, and as they are pushing us onward, they by that very fact, deter us from slipping backward. The “I Will Not” resolves merely are supports that keep us from falling. In so far they are worth the making—and the keeping.

We expected much of nineteen-nineteen—far too much, developments have proven. We were doomed to disappointment because world-wide re- adjustments could not be made in a day after the whole world had been wracked with nearly five ? years of war. We were too hopeful and if we found disappointment, cur judgment is more to be blamed than the world, which, with all its han- : dicaps, has done its best, as usual. Now we have a year’s experience between us a year of striving and of stumbling, - and, we believe, of profiting from our mistakes. We are armed with new knowledge to meet the - problems which the New Year will present, and we are in a position to more confidently cope with them. There are so many factors which give us cause to hope for better things of the new year. There is a growing consciousness of a demand for in- dividual as well as collective patriotism; there is} conviction that any man who would tear down the flag of his country and rend its, constitution and destroy its government is a traitor, not only to his country, but to each one of us; we have come to appreciate the fact that when an enemy to; our country, be he son of that country or alien, attacks that which we hold dear, that which has protected us in peace and preserved us in war;: that for which our forefathers laid down their, blues. livese, and whose roots were so recently drenched} In our city and state and county and the country with the best blcod of our noble young manhood at large 1920 promises. to surpass all previous —we have begun to realize that when our civili- years in developments. and prosperity. zation is a(tacked, from within or without, every | New standards of living and of production have member of that civilization is assailed. ibeen established.

Even with the aid of periodicals which attempt to collect and classify this litera- turdin the form of abstracts, the worker in one single little branch of a medical specialty is hard pushed to keep abreast of his subject. It is like a fusillade of bullets directed against our common enemy—disease. If many a bullet misses the mark it is nevertheless ‘true that now and then some do hit it squarely. Disease is siowly but surely being pushed back from. trench to trench, and ultimate victory is only a matter of time, perseverance and concerted action.
