DECEMBER 31, 10?7 THE .NEW 1EUL , E are aciu&lomej to apeak of 1st as the beginning of a new to wish our Kew Year." January year and friends and associates A Happy Our year of course, in a certain way an artificial thing. Every in one sense, we are beginning a new year; every moment we are ending an old year. And yet for purpose of convenience we have divided our lives up into these periods, which are not quite artificial, because they are based on astronomical facts, it tales a year for tlua wondrous old earth of ourg to make its sweeping jourriby through space around the sun, giving us m ifs passage the changes of day and night, giving us spring and summer, autumn and winter, leading ever lo spring again. We stand today at- - the threshold of this period of time. Another year lies before us, and we know not the things that shall befall us on this journey." It is a good thing that we do not know what is coming tomorrow. The joya and the trials of life come to us one by one, come to us .unexpected. It is best for us not to know what is ahead for in the quiet time we gather strength to meet that which we might not otherwise be able to endure and we get also the beautiful surprises that may come to ui at every turn. Life would be robbed of ila beauty and its mystery if we knew what was befor ui in each month or year. But we shall find bappinesa in the new i year. If we live for it, and this is what all men seek. We must remember, however, that if we seek happiness directly as the end and aim in life, we will miss it. Happiness is not found by direct seeking Pursue it and it eludes you. Follow duty, truth, right, the service of man and the honor of Cod, and happiness comes as naturally as day follows night. Whatever else befalls us in this year that is ahead of us, one thing we are going to be absolutely sure of; we are going to find the new year full of opportunities. Opportunities to serve, to help on all good ranges, lo discover more of truth, to make life easier and sweeter for those who are discouraged, in short, to become a part of the divine goodness of the world and a ' sharer in the divine joy. This is the grandest tiling that any one can possibly desire. This is life at its besL Time is alwajs opportunity. The spent year has been crowded with achievement. Prosperity has increased, the world has advanced revealing amazing mysteries and promising even greater fulfillment There is not a problem that faces man that he is not capable of solving, for all his external achievements have kept step with his own mental, moral and spiritual unfolding. So, as the clock ticks off the last minutes of 1U27 and we hang up a new calendar for another year it is well for us to make a new resolve as to our sowing as we dedicate ourselves to the task of helping one another along lifes journey. In this connection we invite the attention of our readers to This IS the Place" page, which appears elsewhere in this issue. Read there the statements and forecasts of men prominent in the industrial, educational, social and spiritual life of the Wple of this state. The outlook is promising. The new year will be full of and for good opportunity for well-doito duty and devotion of effort, Lmiy living. high purposes will make 1928 the greatest 11ns is year of all. llie day is at hand the Place." In this spirit, Th Deseret News opens wide the door and calls to ail, A llappy New Year." i. mo-Bte- "V 4 J,V t-'- i v- - A ng y.3 , THE CITY COMMISSION. v'i f. a few days now the city eommission-ei- s, following the recent election, will meet and organize. A new mayor will take Ins place as chairman of the city a governing board, while two members of the commission, whose terms have just expired, will present certificates of election for another term. While m effect there will be but one new member to take his seat, three newlyelecled members will begin to function with the others, under a recent mandate from the people and under an implied agreement that they will work for the bet interests of the city they are called IN to serve. During the city campaign much was aid concerning alleged defects in the ad- - ministration of municipal affairs and candidates pledged themselves !f elected to do everything possible to Remedy existing wrongs. The very fact 'that conditions weie not entirely satisfactory seemed to. difhiand a realignment of 'forces, a new deal in the assignment of department beads. It( was assumed tiiat where weakness had bepn developed effort would be made to strengthen the weak places and make the conduct of cily affans more effective than it formci ly had been. This, it w ould seem, could only be brought about bv a reorganization of the comnii'sioii atid by the assignment of members of life lKard to they are best suited to fill. It may be said Jjy some that experience equips men to render their best work Where they have formerly opciated. In some cases this is no doubt true, but where men seem to be unqualified to begin with no amount of expenfuce will bring about the best results. And this is not to be construed as reflecting ou anyone but should be taken merely as a means of illustrating the principle we bkve in tnmd. The city commissioner are servants of the people, employed by them to do their and bidding. 'They should be enough to so organize their forces that the bet possible service may The be rendered to their constituent. question of patronage or the distribution of jobs to peisonal friends should be wholly eliminated What the people of tins city want and what they have a right to expect is that men shall be placed wheie they will do the most effective wtfik. In line with this idea the commissioners should meet without any preconceived notions and then and there proceed to measure up their respective abilities take an inventory, if you please, of their personal fitness for a given line of work and make assignments accordingly without respect to their present official status. .Loyalty and service rather than the satisfying of' personal ambition should be the watchword. The trouble with our present system of government is not with the law itself but with the careless altitude of the voter who selects the men. Too often public officials are elected without proper consideration as to their fitness or their general attitude. When business men appoint others to serve them they go into their qualifications thoroughly and measure well the ability of the candidate for the place be is called to fill. This principle should apply alike jo places m public life, where the responsibility is just as great and the trust Squally binding and sacred. Isn't it time ,tbe voter demanded that business be done in a businesslike way? Isnt it about lime we threw off our twaddling clothes and began to look at the situation m its true light? Laws are made jo be enforced. Regulations are prescribed to be lived up to. This applies as much to those in official life as it does to the rank and file.
