THE YEARS 1915-1916.

Father Time, the old, heartless
grey-beard, has checked off the
last entry and closed the last
column in the well-thumbed ledg-
er for the year nineteen hun
dred and fifteen. That record is
forever sealed and another gap
IN the history of men and of ma
tions is now closed. Already the
dust from the wheels of the New
Year falls upon the Old Year
record, just as each succeeding
year has done, since eternal time
became measured by years.
The most brief resume of the
events of the past year would
entail endless labor and space.
Volumes Of history have been
made in those few weeks since
the beginning of the year 1915.
For another three hundred and
sixty-five full work days war
madened Europe has Crap
Piled upon land and sea doing
fealty 20 the whims of royalty.
When the carnage will end,
none but the self-advertising
seers and prophets" would at
tempt TO say.
Although, advancement and in
ventions for the past year have
been of military nature, at least
in nearly one-half of the worlds
population. The fruit of this
thought and labor will not OBJ
tain publicity until the present
wars are over. The geniuses that
have perfected the submarines,
the air-crafts, and other NUM-
tions of warfare will probably fail
to realize the commercial advant-
age of their inventions.
In our own country the re-
wards of peace have been many.
We have during the past year
been fortunate people, and to
Woodrow Wilson, that remark
able statesman and diplomat, a
large proportion of the credit is
due.
Though the past year has made
history, the future is problemat-
ical. 1t is now in the year 1916
! that our individual and national
happiness and success stands un-
decided and in the balance.
Proud of the good derived from
the old year, and benefited by
the failures, we should individ-
ually shoulder our burdens and
endeavor TO make the present
year a better and a more sue
ceSsful year than any preceding.
The futility Of wasting time or
thought over the errors and fail
ures of the old year is well ex-
pressed by Omar Kahyam, the
Persian poet:
"The Moving Finger writes, and
having writ moves on,
And all thy piety and wit,
Cannot turn it back
Nor cancel half a line. "
