•TIME, YOU OLD GYPSY MAN” . . . Every 12 months, as the earth
spins along its course, we fondly re-eract the cherished old conceit of
the aged and worn man, representing the Old Year, meeting for a
brief instant with his cherubic successor, the New Year. For In that
bit of make-believe are embodied the resolutions we would make for
ourselves, our faith in the future and our hope that things will be
better next year.
New Year Resolutions Silly
So Say Psychiatrists
In the opinion of some of the nation’s leading psychiatrists,
the practice of making New Yea*- resolutions is "silly.”
They believe that any person going around making resolutions
and informing all and sundry of his decision is something of an
exhibitionist and, in addition, is being childish.
The experts add that these persons "probably never carry
out the resolutions anyway.”
Some agree that New Year resolutions have little value. They
feel that resolutions aren’t the best way of curbing difficulties
and correcting one’s self. They point out that, instead, the best
method is giving thought to what causes trouble and trying ration
ally to correct these faults.
Children especially, the experts argue, should not be encour
aged in “making resolutions.” They contend a "child should be
taught to do the best he can at all times and not save his diffi
culties for any particular time, and attempt to tear them all up
by one superhuman effort that is almost sure to fail.”
