It seems like giving up an old friend or companion who has been with you and whose comradeship you have enjoyed but from whom you must part to look upon his face no more. The mind naturally deligh*3 in the reflective. It feels like going out , , .... Never before in the history of the .world was there so much packed into! , „„ r i xi the brief space of a s n fl« year. Never ,l _ _ _, , ' ,. . was there so much alacrity, so much . .....j 1 . * ,ush " nd *nt«rpt se as lumg '.-e year just drawing to a close, and it I would be impossible to recount the ! blessings which have crowned the lives of all of us. They are as num-j berless as the sounds of the sou or the .stars of heaven. It ought to be counl ed a pleasure to live in n world so full, of the richest treasures of ail the ' ages. Of all the ages "time's noblest offspring is the lust." it to be better than the last? The solemn bell that tolls the knell of the into some vast solitude and commun j n( ç vv jth nature and with nature's God. It wants to gel away from th busy haunts of men, the seething mas of restless humanity, to some quiet retreat and there commune with itself, But I fe is too busy for this. We have scarcely time to think upon the grea movements in the midst of which we find ourselves placed and w.thout .he power to with iraw. j But what about the new year? Is departing year also announces the arrival of the new. The same heart throbs that give life and animation to the old must pulsate in the new. The 1 sgme hands that labored to crown the old with success must in great parti shape the destinies of the new. Not all the vexed questions and problems of our complex civilization have been solved by any means. In deed it may be said that some of the most serious in American history are awaiting solution during the coming year. Records will be made that will go down the aisles of time as the most memorable in the world's history. No one man nor dozen men can perform a |i t h e tasks before us, but all of us w i!l be needed to perform the work, Our leaders may be brave and wise ant j sagacious, but no general can con duct an army to victory if the priv ates are mutinous or unwilling ta brave danger and hazard life and for tune in order to secure it. The dawn of the new year though celebr-ted with festival, music and song is, yet, a striking and solemn memento; and he must be dull, indeed who can write for the first time, the number that designates it without a passing touch, at least, of serious emotion. As law abiding citizens we should be fully aware of this and strive to be better, live better, better, this year than last. We should make some good resolutions and keep them. We should not only strive to reach a high er plane of Christian citizenship, but we should also take note of the small er affairs of life, of the people among* whom we live. It isn't our province here to men tion what our resolutions should be. They may deal with any or all of the cardinal sins, but surely there is ample room for improvement, both as to our relation to earthly and heavenly af fairs. Let us at least be liberal—in in our sociology end theology Let! u* each save one and all will be saved, Let us not frown upon our neighbor's 1 pleasure or success, nor judge his fit-1 ness for heaven. Let us become ac-1 live members of the brotherhood of man. Who seeks for heaven alone to sa . h s soul May keep the path, but will reach the goal, Vh : lc he who walks in love may tv I dar far, Yet God will bring him where tl. blessed are." Every man, woman and child wh ever lived was created for n purpose. As to just what that purpose may be we are sometimes in doubt. Con-1 science and the sacred book make our duties pretty plain, however. Thi ten commandments, the golden rule and the law of the land are alt indi- : cations that point the way. We would all do well to re-affirm allegiance to them now. SHE WAS A THRIFTY LASS The Scotsman, away on his annual vacation, was head over heels in love with a certain young "girl he left be hind him." At last ho could stand the suspense no longer, and, going to .he telegraph office, he sent off a telegram i asking her if she would marry him. j That happened in the morning and he spent the entire day in the office wali ng for a reply.
