Editors Note-Following is the third
of a series of editorials dealing with the
future of Holmes County.
We have all seen how people can talk
themselves into a depressed feeling or an
economic recession. Sometimes, we won
der if such a negative attitude is not do
ing much to hold back progress in
Holmes County.
Certainly, the future is bright for
Holmes County. Nevertheless, there are
many here in the county who seem TO
delight in painting a negative picture.
They point out a decline in population
and occasional business Tags. These same
individuals apparently do o consider
increased overall economic prosperity a
significant factor, for instance.
We all need to '%'accentuate the posi-
tive" aspects of Holmes County. The
fact of the matter is that Holmes County

EDITORIAL COMMENT
Positive Outlook Necessary
For Holmes County Progress

is On the move; but it is the responsibility
of each citizen to "talk-up' the county.
If they fail to look at the bright side of
our future, then such may never become
a reality.
In our emphasis on positive thinking
we need not ignore the truth. If we
adopted such an approach, of course, we
could never make any real Roadway. We
must be realistic in analysing our OPP
portunities and chances for progress.
With a right attitude the people of
Holmes County can enjoy a prosperous
and sound future. We must think big
and talk big however. We must be will
ing t look to the future with optimism
and enthusiasm. If we are alert TO each
opportunity for economic or cultural ad-
vancement then real progress can become
a reality.
