the now famous hymn was almost
instantly flashed on his brain, and
was hastily scribbled on the back

a flash OF genius, the appropriate

was sent to the publisher who paid
him $500 for it. Such the recon-

well-known hymns are 'The Kings

A Word Of Appreciation
To The Retiring Editor.

We are informed that r. f. Wood.
editor of the Holly Chieftain, has
sold the paper to Chas A. Tenny
and the change in management will
take place at once. Mr.. Wood is
more than an ordinary newspaper
man, and as a citizen Is a most val
liable man to our little city. We
sincerely hope he will remain among
us. Mr.. Woods family, as well as
himself, are most useful and i'm
pOrtant factors in the social and
church life of the community. Holly
can i'll afford to lose this good man
and his estimable family. Mr.. Wood
came to Holly from Lamar little
more than a year ago where for
some time he was editor of The La
mar Daily News He is a broad
minded, impartial. CONSCIENTIOUS ed
it0r with keen interest n the COM
munity welfare. the business, the
school and the church life. He gave
us one OF the cleanest best papers Of
any small town In the state. 1t is in
our Judgment that many of the pa
pers in the county seat towns do
not come up to The Chieftain. A
real live paper is one Of the very
best assets of a community. We
understand that Mr.. Wood and fam
lily will remain n Holly for the
present at least. until they form
more deflnie plans for the future.
We welcome the new editor. Mr..

ally opened Tuesday evening with
turkey dinner
Mrs. A. G. Van Wey is. the genial
hostess and is being efficiently as
sisted in her duties by Mrs. Harry

Mrs. Van Wey, after the sad. be
reavement OF her son during the

went to Greeley to become the mat
ron of q girls sOrorety in the college
there. The work she reports as
highly enjoyable Music, dancing.
the conversation hour about the
fireplace brought Mrs Van Wey in
to most intimate fellowship with
the girls and the influence OF her
lite upon them must have been
most Statutory She reluctantly
gave up her work because Of the
threat to her health and returned
recently to Holly.
I The building in which Is housed
the Trail Inn was brought in sec
tions from the old sugar beet dis,
triet and thoroughly remodeled and
enlarged with new addition OF din
ing room and kitchen in the rear
The old structure Is divided into a
large pleasant reception room and
q number of guest rooms; in all
there are thirteen rooms. The guest
rooms are simply, neatly and daint-
" furnished as individual apart
ments. Congoleum covers all the
floors and there is wardrobe In
each room. A fine, convenient bath
room is provided.
The Inn, though located on the old
Santa Fe Trail, is intended for res
ident and permanent guests, res
ervations being scarcely adequate
to the demand.
Who named it 'sTrail Imp" The
names seems to have originated

a WORD m PASSING.

AS announced above, the owner
ship of The Chieftain passes to
Chas. A .Tenny OF Des Moines. Iowa.
Mr. Tenny comes to Holly with the
best of recommendations and we
bespeak for him the continued lid
eral patronage OF the town and com
munity that has been given the
writer during our management OF
The Chieftain.
1t is with regret that we sever
our business relations with the
commercial interests Of Holly. we
trust we have made many friends
here and but few enemies (and for
these we have no apologies.) During
our newspaper career Of more than
twenty years, We have never owned
n newspaper where the business re
lations have been so cOngenial as IN
Holly.
We have no definite plans for the
immediate future but expect to re-
main in Holly until the close OF the
present school year at least.
Again asking for your continued
support for the new proprietor. we
beg to remain,
Yours respectfully.

a New Y..r. Message

DR.. Cantwell, of the Presbyterian
church, last Sunday morning spoke
substantially as follows; basing his
sermon on Phil. 3:l314.
Paul. a prisoner. in chains and
bonds, resolves to .orget the past
and put his trust wholly in God.
So today, We are trying to forget
the bitter crushing sorrows of the
past year The mark of those sad
experiences rest on us today, but
we pray God to help us to forget
the sting of sorrow. Yet we would
not forget the past blessings, but
praise God for his mercy and good
ness.
Paul had much to forget; so have
we, yet he would rejoice in the vic
tory and triumph of the Lord. We
too, have been prosecuted but we
shall not die. So we enter into the
New Year with renewed hope and
courage.
We are glad that the past year,
with its joys and sorrows is gone,
but in the year to come would we
make those past experiences but
stepping-stones to higher place
with God. Memory we cannot OBJ
literate. We strive to forget the
past but cannot. Victor Hugo de-
clared that the period of life he
dreaded the most was the age Of
forty. When someone said to him.
Fifty is more dreadful period of
life," he said, Forty Is the old age
OF youth, but fifty is the youth OF
old age
God is coming to us with q won.
derful ministry for the New Year
We should trust God more in this
New Year and press toward the
mark Of the high calling in Christ
the Lord.
The seed is buried too die and
yet to live again with new glory
and power. Giving leads to get
ting. It is more blessed to give
than to receive. Man reverses this
and says it Is more blessed to re-
ceive. The sun shines not for him
self but for us. the vine grows to
bestow her fruits on us, ships ride
the waves but to bear the worlds
cargoes for humanity.
Paul declared that he counted all
things refuse to win God, but 1t Is
hard for US to part with our earthly
treasures. "A little Of the beauty
Of heaven, but much of the Joy OF
earth," our selfish hearts say.
Twas class mate of Charles Alex.
ander, book OF whose life and Ia
bors has been recently published.
He once said to me, "In the early
morning of young manhood for me
to live is Christ and to die is gain.
do not know how long / am to
live but I want to live each day
as though 1t were my last day
When the great singer passed on
his wife wrote beautiful letter
to me. Said she, I'VE shall be unit
ed some day again, and out OF all
the disappointments of the past
we shall come to have sincere con
verse together in HEAVIER and shall
praise God together for the way he
has led us"
What is your resolution, your pur.
pose and your determination for
the New Year? Honor God and
put him first in all things. Place
your social, business and personal
affairs into his hands.
