o. H. Swingley, tax adjuster

sulting with Mayor Burke,

other citizens, Mr.. Swingley APP
peared to be satisfied that the
proposed improvements were
legitimate, besides being badly
needed, and it is probable that
he will recommend to his com

couraged.

THE UNIVERSAL DEBT.

We are fond of saying that the
world owes US a living, and try
to get it by hook or crook. The
truth is, the debt is on the other
side. We owe the world a living;
the living Of the best lives posi-
bic to our endowments and op-
portunities. The life of a deaf,
dumb and blind girl, who has ae-
complished so much under such
overwhelming difficulties, has
proven that none need despair Of
being 4 useful factor in the world
no matter how numerous the
handicaps.
Ii We are possessed CT wealth,
our debt to Maker and humanity
is all the greater, and its wise and
generous distribution is a stern
duty. Ii we are gifted with tai
|ents we are under obligations to
the Giver and to fellowmen fol
their cultivation and use in the
enlightenment and uplifting Of
the unfortunate. He who makes
no other use of a brilliant mind
than to seek his own honor anc
advancement, is a bankrupt, who
defrauds himself as we'll as asso.
ciates.
II our pathway should lie
through Poverty's vale, the duty
Is incumbent upon US to rejoice
because of the ightness OF oul
burden. So completely should
our place be filed that the rattle
Of discomfort will never be heard
The intelligent, consideration:
spending of time and money; the
generous use of Drawn and brair
in Frightening and lettering oul
corner of the universe, are ex.
cellent methods of paying off thi.
great debt. With the brand new
year before US, an appropriate
determination might be to liv'
each day better than yesterday
ard thus even up by returning t.
the world value received. May.
long and well spent life free eacl
of our readers from the universe
debt.

Me- Y AIRS GREETING.

Another year is ours, to mar
with mistakes, or make a success
by giving to each task our best.
All must admit that an improve
ment on the past is possibility,
even WITH the most conscientious
and circnmspect, and looking
backward we may see our neg
lected opportunities of self-bet-
terment, and helpfulness to 9TH
ers, and avoid similar pitfalls in
future. We have not only erred
by thought, tongue and deed,
but have wounded friends by our
thoughtlessness and made enc
mics by our willfulness. But re-
grets are vain. The past in each
life, like the pages of history, is
written, and so must remain, but
the future IS before US as a spot
less page, and moment by mo-
ment VIC may inscribe a cleaner,
better record than ever before.
In business as well as domes-
tic associations, We can strive to
live up to golden rule standards.
Whether we be rich or poor,
We can put forth our best efforts
in whatever work may come 10
our hands, and render just re-
turns for value received.
To our patrons, We would say
that we shall endeavor to show
our appreciation of the privilege
of making them 4 weekly visi,
Throughout the year by brighten
ing their iresides with the news
and local happenings Of The day,
and keeping them in touch with
the outside world and its myriad
opportunities. Our best efforts
will be given toward making the
EAGLE one of the best papers Of
its kind in the state, and we trust
that our patrons will Join US ir
making the ambition a reality.
Thanking our readers for pas
patronage, we cordially invite
them to make our pages the step.
ping stones to success, and may
, happiness and prosperity b.
theirs through the glad new year
