The countrywide i conference is to the United States what the state conferences are to the four corners of the respective com- monwealths. Thess conferences are the result of the development which has taken place in connection with social wel- fare work. - iLike. other movements which have made their appeal and b pushed on to successful accom- plishments, this national gathering is the outcome of a small beginning, but it has grown to the proportions where it is the biggest annual.affalr of .its kind in_conneetion with uplife . work And it has grown and .developed be- cause it has been recoznized that there is need for just such a confer- ence for the natlon as well as the states that there may be a discussion of the big problems which are con- fronted throuzhout the country, that every section of the country may be put in'touch with the way other sections are successfully dealing with needed reforms by the delegates reporting back the achievements ard using.their efforts to have similar ideas adopted in their states and that there may be an exchange of ideas that the best méthod of handlinz special problems and securing needed reforms may be vallable to Connecticut, as well as to New. York or Califormia. ‘The bolding of these comferences year after year must make it appar- ent that the- main idea back of it is meeting with anticipated ‘results. The bringing of reforms throughout the entire country and-net solely to one small section thereof is certainky. to be desired and this national confer- ence is proving of tremendous vaiue if- this worthy and ambitious under- taking.

The great advantages Erow- ing ‘out of these preservative meas- ures will not be without influence in New Fneland which today reépresents the booze end of this republic. Some one has said, "Every cheerful thought points the way to another,” and it may as well be said that one worry ieads direct to another. All repetition is -habit-building, and fo master habit instead of* having habit master us we must. have a-care how we indulge in theughts, words or con- Auct. It is as easy to make praying a habit as hawking: and to make pray- er as empty as a rag-fime song. It is why and how we do things which gives or detrects value from them. There is no denying that man ‘first makes his habits and then his habiis make him: and this is why _the guard against habit through. instruc- tion should be early established: for the chain of habit remains.too small to be felt until it is too strong to be broken. If habit is, as defined, peiri- fied feeling, we should be . careful what we solidify. Tt is an estab- lished truth that “if you sow an act you reap a habit; sow a-habit and You reap a.character; sow a charac- ter and you reap a destiny.” — Many a man-thinks he is a politi- clan when he 1s only a joke.
