Another year is recorded with the
past, and the PRESS starts upon its
18th year with this issue.
A general review will show the
twelve months just closed have been
quiet ones in all channels of business,
and few establishments can show
anything upon the credit side Oftheir
yearly balance sheet. In fact, those
who have held their own cal have
room for congratulation. This is
the record everywhere, however, so
the business man, the farmer, me-
| chanic or professional man in this
community who is inclined to be dis
couraged over the past years work,
can feel that his own lack ofadvance-
ment or prosperity is duplicated by
nearly every one in nearly every
other locality. No nan or business
can prosper every year in a career OF
any length. The active and quiet
years come and go in cycles, and
their constant recurrence, ups and
downs, ever shifting and changing
conditions, test the ability of man to
glide over the turbulent or smoothe
surface of affairs whichever confronts
him.
And these nicely adjusted changes
seem to be an all-wise provision to
hold in check extravagances that
would naturally follow continued
and perpetual prosperity, AS the in
dividual comes through the fire puri-
fed, so it is with both the individual
and community in a business sense,
passing if they may, safely through
an era of depression and business
disaster they are entrenched the
more firmly upon that rock OF safety
reached only by the difficult passage
of experience. ~.
The thirteen years of history re-
corded in the files of this paper dis,
close a changeful and shifting scene
beyond the power of a PERSONS mem
ory to retain, as the events OF
the present crowd out memo
ries of the past, so that the acts
and actors of other days soon fade
away. In looking over these files it
is surprising to see how few there are
left here of those who first settled in
the town, and to trace the deaths,
removals, changes in business, etc,
would be almost an endless job. But
we presume this changing and shift
ing in characteristic of every locali-
ty in this restless western country.
The PRESS can congratulate this
community upon the fact that under
peculiar and unusual conditions our
people have withstood remarkably
we'll an era of depression such as
many of them never before encoun,
tered, and the hope that it is safely
passed is based upon Indications o.
slow and gradual Improvement now
manifest. We wish all a happy and
, prosperous New Year.
