LAINGSBURG.

How odd it seems to write il 1883.
Another year is past and 1882 lives
only in our memories. What we
have done in the past year, we have
done and all our acts, kind or un
kind, can never be undone, but their
memories will recur to our minds
each succeeding year, bringing pleas
ure or sadness according as our works
have been good or bad.
To-day there will be many good
resolutions made for the year to
come, which | fear will be broken.
Still it is better to make good reso-
lutions, although they may be broken
before the end of the year, than not
to try 10 improve onr conduct at all
We cannot aim too high. There is
danger of our living beneath our
privileges.
Christmas passed very quietly with
us. Everyone looked happy and
jollity and aood nature seemed to
prevail among our citizens.
A Christmas service was held al
the M. E. church in this place also
at the Blood church in Victor, but
no Christmas trees. Old Santa
was allowed the old time privilege o.
depositing his gifts in the stockings
hung high in the chimney corner
How he must have smiled at the
different sizes and colors that me,
his eye that night. Every color o.
the rainbow, ringed, streaked and
speckled, long and short, large and
small, all looking SO lean and hungry
and full of emptiness. No doubt
that many little heart (and large
ones too), sighed the next morning
at the thought that Christmas comes
but once o year, bringing gladness
and good cheer.
Mr.. Silas f. Jones, a respected
citizen of Victor, died at his home
three miles west of here, last F.iday
evening. He will be buried from the
Blood church TO day. Mr.. Jones
came from New York state and set
tied on his farm some sixteen year,
ago where he has since resided. He
has been Supervisor of his township
and was an upright, respected citizen.
He was not connected with any
church, taking as his rule of life
the golden rule, "to do unto other.
as you would that they should dc
unto you." He leaves a devoted
wife, two sons and two daughters tc
mourn the loss of a husband anc
father.
