We, be now standing on the
threshold Of another year and it is
fitting that we take Our pen in hand
to write a editorial about it. The
year of 1910 is thing Of the past,
as YOU might say, and 1911 is jest
starting in new. The past year is
gone, but thank goodness the next
year is yet before us. What be we
agoing to do with it:
Be we agoing to fritter it away
as we done with last year, or be we
agoing to buckle on OUR arnlor Of
endeavor and roll up our sleeve.
and spit on Our hands and lick in
and accomplish something:
| Now is the time to make new
resolutions. If anybody has any
RESOLUTIONS to make they usually
put it off until the new year and
then start in with a clean nice page
in life's history which they will en-
deavor to keep unspotted from the
world for short time, or longer if
possible. Making new resolutions
is a custom with some people and a
habit with others. Now there's Bill
Hepburn. Bill is almost as regular
in swearing off drinkin' every New
Years as he is in going to the Co.
seat every Saturday to ticker up. If
Bill Hepburn couldn't take his SOL
lem oath on January 1st that he
wouldn't never let another drop Of
ticker fetch his lips as long as he
drew breath, so help him, why he
wouldn't feel natural. Bill looks
forward to January 1st, when he
can swear off and feel pure and un-
tainted and holy, with just as much
anticipation as he looks forward to
the follering Saturday when he can
hitch UP and drive his old gray nag
TO the Co. seat and fill his vitals with
the Juice that cheers.

Iof clearance house day on Bing-
vile iniquity. \ great many of our
residents give up their worst vices
and remain good and useful citizens
ior sometimes as long as two weeks.
Last New Years Hank Dewberry
