Resolutions for 1933 rise like a pray-” 5 er from millions of hearts throughout a wwHl in travial. They are indeed new resolutions in a new sense, for their source lies deeper than careless mirth and noisy gayety. Resolutions for 1933 are born in men and women who have - looked into the face of adversity and found it cannot frighten them. Cradled in the ashes of materialism, they spring, uncon quered and unafraid ,to greet a bright er.dawn whose faintly roseate hue is touted with the glowing radiance of a more spiritual day. Resolutions for 1933 call on the leaders to the nations to disarm in stead of talking about it. Upon the individuals who compose he ,nations those resolutions solemnly call to un ite in one high resolve to halt that pet ty, narro wnationalism which leads to international suspicion, greed and wgr. | Resolutions for 1933 have the seren ity of noble purpose that s than all burn offerngs of reckless festivity. They have he courage that comes frabi knowing that “there’s a divinity our ends, rough hew them how we will.” Their inspira tion rejoices mankind In “This nour because resolutions for 1933 have turned as never before to a loving Father-Mother God whose will jis that peace and good wil-lj shall reign on earth as they do in heaven. « , TODAY i : TODAY’S ANNIVERSARIES 1412—Joan of Arc, the remarkable girl whose heroism and devotional fer vor inspired the French, born.

But her mother had called her Araminta. After her mbthex-’s only sister, who was known as! Aunt Min, and whose full name was Minerva. Araminta’s mother had wanted something more roman tic- and out of it' all had evolved — . Araminta! for Araminta was the phild of her mother’s later years and of her second marriage. The other girls were Leontine and Ifelen and Iris. They had been named by their father, and Araminta’s mother had had very little to do with it. For being a first husband, be bad func tioned, inevitably, as I lie head of the family. Araminta’s father, on the other hand, hadn't cared in the least what the baby was called, so that his> wife was satisfied. So Araminta was Araminta, and that was the end of it! Or it would have been the end if Araminta’s father had been able to provide for his family. But he wasn’t. He had absolutely no head for money matters and said so, frankly. The father of Leontine and Helen and Iris had left a comfortable fortune. His wife was to have her share of the income if she remained Unmarried. If she married, it was all to go, except her dower rights, to the first husband’s three daugh ters, who were, of course, her own, although they did not seem ip the - least like her, having inherited their dominant traits from their father. And so it happened that Araminta’s mother, having spent the major part of her dowry in two glorious years of honeymooning in Europe with her improvident husband —who was a painter and perfectly delight ful, but whose pictures never sold — carflte back with a brand new baby lo live with Helen and Leontine and Iris, who were really very fond of t?heir mother and had missed her, amd who, when at last they came liome from the convent where they had been placed in the honeymoon Interim took their stepfather on his own terms of good looks and gayety and gentle manners. So that was Araminta’s family— Leontine and Helen and Iris, and Araminta’s mother, whose nice name was Mary, and Araminta’s father, whose pleasant name was Nick! And it might have been a happy family except for the fact that Araminta grew beyond innocent childhood and beyond long-legged girlhood into the loveliest of them all—an: exqui site creature wearing the clothes Which her - stepsisters handed .down to her with such grace and distinc tion that they might have come straight from Vionnet or Chanel or from that house of Worth which had once made gowns for Araminta’s own grandmother. And Araminta looked like her grandmother—the grandmother who had married a bishop, and who had been the toast of two Maryland counties, and had drawn men to her as. a honey-pot tiraws bees. And while Iris and Helen and Leontine tried to be generous and big-hearted and all the things that their post war generation entitled them to be, the fact remained that it was not easy lor their more mature years to look with complacence on the con quests of Araminta’s youth and in experience. And so. sim-o Araminta had a wjt to see. and a heart to he hurt, here 111., 59 years ago. Rt. Rev. John W.

Araminta, touching her lover’s arm, said “Look, Barney, look!” “I know, Loveliness. ...” The moon went with them as they drove along. It hung above the bay, and after the ducks, were gone,, thin clouds drifted across it, then bigger clouds, until at last there was no moon, and night grew black and the thunder roared, and the rain came down in torrents. But not a whit did the lovers care for thunder or wind, or for the light ning which burned blue about them. For they were safe and dry in Bar ney’s car, and it was spring and the night was warm, and their lights picked out the white of the dogwood against the darkness of the pines and the bridal white of the bloom was like the bridal white of Aranflnta’s wedding gown packed in a bag' on the back seat. The gown w’as made over from one of Leontine’s. But that did’not matter. Nothing mat tered but the fact that Barney and Araminta were to be married to morrow. The wind blew harder . . . the world swept by them in a swirl of flying branches and streaming veater. In open space in the road, Bar ney brought the car to a stop. “Ifs dangerous under those trees. Well wait until things let up a bit.” Araminta was content to wait. She lay with her cheek against Bar ney’s coat, with her ear catching the beat of his heart while he told her over and oyer again of his great good luck in getting her. “I can hardly believe it, Loveliness.” Araminta said nothing. Three hours ago she wouldn’t have believed it. Not until Leontine had come into her room .just before dinner and had said, “We are planning a trip for you, darling.” Araminta’s room was the Cinde rella-room of Great-Gate, where the six of them lived together. But Ara minta felt no sense of grievance. She loved her room because its win dows looked out over the wide Maryland acres towards the Chesa peake. It was much better than the one in the town house in Washing ton, which was on a street still fash ionable, but whose back windows gave on a crowded row of negro tenements. And it was in Araminta’s room, therefore, that Leontine had an nounced, “We are planning a trip for you.” Araminta, dazzling in Leontine’s last-year’s pink lace had asked: “What kind of trip?” .. “To the Hiviera. Everyone is crazy about Juan-les-Pins in sum mer. And Nicky could paint, and you could all take an apartment.” “You mean that Nicky and Mary are going?” “Yes. They jumped at it. And Helen and Iris and I will put up the money.” “But why, Leo? I'm happy here.” “We thought you’d love it.” “Did you. ~. .?” “Os course. 5 Any girl would. . . i Leontine prided herself on her frank- I ness, but she had hesitated to tell f the truth to Araminta, and the truth | was this, as has been said, that Ara minta, growing up to unexpected loveliness, had put her stepsisters comnletelv in the shade One hwrd I voted to abolition of the Senate engrossing department. House members sent forward a flock of new bills, most of them lo cal; but among , the batch were mea sures to have the State remove the 15 cents ad valorem thx now levied for school support, and to provide for a revaluation of r,eal property. Another batch of Senate committees were announced, but no House com mittees have been given out. The House debated taking up a measure to abolish 1932 tax penalties at once under suspension of the rules, but finally voted to refer the mat ter to the committee on finance. Both divisions adjourned to meet tomorrow to consider only local bills and to take up general business again on Monday night.

The full committee will Consider the proposal Monday and must approve it before it reaches the Senate. The split among former leading pro hibition supporters in that branch* everywhere, “Little Araminta Wil liams, Little Araminta Williams,” as if there were no other women in the world. Leoiitine and Helen and Iris were, sci fact, fast becoming known merely as backgrounds to Araminta’s. ' beauty. f. And something had to be dons about it! Leontine did not underrate her .own charms. She had a tall slim figure, and hep green satin dinner gown fitted her-as if it had been put on with a shoe horn. She had a golden skin, and a waved-bronze boyish head like a Greek god, and a voice with a rich, deep note like Ethel Barry more’s; but with it all she lacked the things which made men mad about Araminta—perhaps it was some magic quality, of youth, per haps this new-old-fashioned air of femininity which became her so well. But whatever it was, Leontine knew that she and her sisters were being swept off the stage by this star per former! . And now here was Barney Tyson! Thinking rttJierpforS' of.

But three was bad . chough, and now with you earn ing on!: And we thought if yon would go, and Nicky and Mary, we girls would fix you up with gorgeous clothes —and give you plenty of money. ...” She had stopped suddenly, for Araminta had made a quick impera tive gesture, “I don’t want your money, Leo.” “Nonsense, Minta.” i “I've always hated being depend ent. You know that, but you wouldn’t let me*work—” v « "Why shouldn’t you share things?’' “Because, Nicky and mother an 4 I really' haven't any right—and as for marrying.. . 1 don’t want to marry—^anybody.” “You .think that now. But you’ll marry,, of course, with a man like Barney .Tyson after you.” “Oh, Barney,” Minta’s light tone had dismissed him, “I don’t lbVe him in the least and he knows it;” and Leontine who loved him had felt a flame of hope. “You mustn’t think we want to get rid 6f you, Minta. But a year over there would do a Jot for you.” “Os course you want to get rid j of me or you wouldn’t have planned | it,” Araminta had been close to tears, | for she adored them all, and at last rLeontine had said, “Darling child, if j you feel that way about it. don’t go But we just thought ...” and then ther« had been arguments all over again 1 (TO BE COXTIEUEDJ , : ) l . • : ; t.

Pay Cut Is Killed Tsut Os Neglect (Continued from Page One.) officials will continue to receive un diminished salaries for another, four years, It finally ratified the bill at the afternoon session yesterday, but too late to make it effective.. The prevailing opinion is that Sen ator W. G. Clark, presiding as presi dent pro tem, was not entirely fa miliar with the procedure and thus failed to hold th e Senatp in session until the bill was engrossed, so that it might be ratified. At any rate, the Senate recessed after passing the bill and without even ordering it enrolled.

For it to have become ,law, the bill needed to be ratified by both houses. If this was really the case, the House was just as dumb as the Senate and shares with it all the honors for permitting the bill to < die. v Still another school of thought maintains the bill was unconstitu tional anyway.
