NEW YRS. EDDYTORIUL

Before we have went to press
with the next ishue of the Bugle
after thissen the old yr will of
past & DISAPPEARED, as we might say
& we will of started in on 1916.
Do you realise, gentel & limo
cent reader, that you be standing
on the very threshold of a new yr.
or don't you? Anser-probly not.
Do you realise we ask that on next
Friday night prompt at midnight
another yr. will begin when the
clock strikes IL (perviding it is a
clock which keeps correckt time)
and the yr. of 1915 will be reilly
gated to the piggen holes of obsku-
ritty & onockshoous desueytood !?
Yes, it is even so.
Now this being the case, what
are you a going to do about it if
ennythink? Are you a going to
go on Twin the way you have lived
in the past or are you agoing to
turn over a new leaf & live a bet
ter & nobu1ler life? Are you
going to lie and steal and cheat &
be two fased hippercrit, or are
you agoing to reform and be up
right and honorabul & square as
brick?
Now is the time for YOU to set
down in the sanktitty of your own
private closet and take a inventry
of yourself. You've only got few
days left afore the new VT. starts
in and what you ort to do is to go
over your past very keerfu1 and
consider what nave and raskal
you've been and resolve beginning
on new yrs day to live a Mise, clean
pure life.
New Yrs. is when folks gener-
ally makes new resolooshions.
Everybody ort to make some new
resolooshion or other. Tother day
we met Cy Hoskins. one of our
most respeckted citizens on the st.
and we asst Cy what new resolOo-
sfions he was agoing to make. Cy
peared to be kind of insulted and
anserd purity short and snappv that
he diddent calkilate he'd make emmy
being as he considerd hisself about
as good as a person ort to be.
Well, that's one way of lookin at it,
but there's good menny folks in
Bingville don't look at it that way,
widders & orfns who Cy
cheated outen their eyeteeth. Well
admit that Cy Hoskins kin pray
jest as loud as emmy member of the
Bingville church and well also ad-
NIT that personally we wouldent
trust him emmy furthern we could |

sling a COW uphill by the tai1-and
we cant even lift full crowd COW,
let alone sling her!
! We persoom Hen Weathersby,
prop of our gen'1. store, will make
his reglar New Yrs. resolooshion
not to trust a single one of his Gus
toners and tell everybuddy that his
terms is strickly cash. We also
persoom that when Hen finds out
that hes losin trade by so doing
and that nobuddy comes to the
store to buy ennythink, only to set
around and play checkers andso1d
s1ed9e and eat up his crackers and
smoked herrings when his back is
turnd that he'll git purity sick of
his new reselooshion and start in
trustin agin.
We also persoorn that Bill Hep
burn our intelligent blacksmith will
resoloot that a drop of red Ticker
shall never agin tech his lips and
we further persoom that on the 1st
Satterday after New Yrs. Bill will
make trip to the CO. seat and
come home after decent folks in
Bingville has went to bed singin
ribald songs and hollerin and yellin
becuz hes fullern a tick as ushual
One of the best resolooshions
that we can think of which you
can make is to walk into the Bugle
offs on New Yrs day like a man
Cor a woman as the case may be-
and pay up what you owe us on
back subscriDshion and also resolve
that YOU will keep paid up in yrs
to come. If some of our dead beet
subscribers would make stitch res
olooshion as this we would waller
in the lap of luckshury so to speak
and be able to pay our honest detts
besides.
