But probably the news which will cause the most reaction throughout America wiC be that telling of the passing of some important American, whose death may have a serious effect upon our national destiny. Don't choose tonight for social activities.

No one will feel much in the mood for gaiety. People born on this day, In any year, face a trying twelve months. They will meet with many disappointments in plans, and will have to overcome many obstacles before they find success. Financial conditions, however, will be fairly good.

The parents who complain most about their children's behavior are often the very ones who have done the least to give their youngsters the foundation influences they need. The school will teach them how to read but the environment of the home must teach them what to read. The school can teach them how to think but the home must teach, them what to believe. Seldom does a child's cultural tastes stretch beyond the home levels. The pitiful little amount of character-forming religious literature on the average family reading table la one of the reasons parents complain of tfletr children's unwholesome tastes.

The same is true of sub-machine guns. Production of the new heavy machine guns, for land and planes, Just getting under months ahead of schedule. This is an outstanding achievement of industrial organization and ingenuity; the faculties had to be built up practically from scratch. The. output of anti-aircraft guns is getting started.

The delay was caused by uncertainty of the military experts as to the exact function, of this weapon, plus the complexity, of producing them. Production of other artillery Is making headway, but here again the delay was due to the failure of Army brasshats io develop modern cannon in the past.
