PASSING OF THE OLD AND CON-
: ING OF THE NEW YEAR.

Before we shall have spoken to OUT
many readers you will have passed
from the old year into the full light
Of the new year. While in some re-
spects the old year has been interesting,
beneficial and helpful and perhaps we
have enjoyed the most Of it, yet by the
experience Of the old year we should
make more out Of the new year, for
the mistakes Of the old should be
avoided in the new. Then again the
little things that we left undone last
year which would make our brother
happier and humanity better we should
be thoughtful enough to do now. Do
not make long list Of resolutions to-
day and break them tomorrow, but let
US go quietly and resolutely about to
live better, do more, act honestly and
when this new year of 1908, with all
its many hopes and good opportunities
shall have finished we shall be better
for having lived in this age.

EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION,

On, January I, 1868, President Abra-
ham Lincoln reissued the second proc
lamation declaring the former procla-
nation in full force and the American
slave was free man; 4,0OO,O 900 souls
were made happy and they wept with
Joy. The trans formation is our great
task here. We began with practically
nothing, without an education, with no
money, no experience, with the scars
Of slavery and years of ignorance and
superstition, with no family ties. We
began on that famous New Years day
to build up race and today we stand
before the most enlightened and criti-
cal age and challenge the admiration OF
the world for their manful struggles
and rapid strides we have made within
the small space Of forty-fve years.
