With this issue The Progress makes its first step into tho new year and extends to its great army of readers the compliments of the soa- son. May all your good dreams come true during the twelve months and health, prosperity and contentment-never desert you.

During the year 1916 The Progress enjoyed the most'prosperous year in its history. It points with pride to its substantial and increasing circulation, which, we believe, is a recognition of its merits. The reading public is the one and supreme judge of a newspaper's worth, and without offering premiums or conducting contests to boom the circulation The Progress has been favored with a generous subscription patronage in every section of the county throughout the entire year. During December scores selected The Progress as their favorite county newspaper and the result of this splendid month's subscription business is shown in another section of this issue, where is published the names of those who have enrolled as subscribers or renewed their subscriptions during this period. For this appreciation and and confidence in The Progress the editors are most grateful.

The business men have not been slow to appreciate The Progress as an advertising medium and during the year just closed more advertising was carried in The Progress than during any previous twelve months. In justice to its readers and in order that the news service was not sacrificed additional pages were published during the weeks that there was an unusual demand for space by the advertisers. In fact, throughout the year, with the exception of six weeks, all the editions of The Pro- more than eight pages For years it has been the policy of the paper to refuse all whiskey, beer or medical advertisements and in addition to closing the doors against this objectionable advertising the have endeavored to give to the' public a good, clean and hul.henin fliim-h. sidas her parents she is survived liv one brother and four sisters, as follows: Charles Lukeharl and Mrs. Thomas Weston, of Vamlortfrift; Mrs.

So The Progress starts tho new year with a host of admiring patrons and friends representing the very best element in this thriving and growing county.

MACY. Naporeon was not the only great man born on the Island of Pasquale de Paoll, one of the great patriots of history, was a Corsican.

For more than two and a half centuries Corsica had been under the control of the Genoese. In 1755, under the leadership of Paoli, she the Genoan yoke. For fourteen years thereafter Paoll administered the affairs of the Island, and did It wisely and well. He brought about many reforms, and encouraged commerce and the arts. In 1769, having "purchased" Island from the Genoese, France landed an army of 22,000 soldiers.

Paoll with a few thousand Cor- slcans met them boldly, but was badly defeated. With his little army reduced to 537 men and surrounded by .4,000 French, he cut his way out and escaped to England. The French conquered the Island, but at a cost of moro than 10,000 men, nearly half of whom were kilted. Paoll remained In England twenty years. At the outbreak of French Revolution he returned to Corsica and became military governor.

He soon broke with the French, however, and returned to England, where he died In 1807. Eighty years afterward his ashes were removed to Corsica and entombed with great honors. Lamartlne, the eminent French writer, said: "Corsica remains still In place of a mere province, but Paoll assumes place among the ranke of great men." 1SU, by Joseph B. Bowles.)
