You had better use the first manner of greeting for the year has a habit of returning smile for smile and frown for frown.

Do not forget the past! It may have been hard on you; it may bring to your mind a long list of disappointments, troubles, but these very troubles, sorrows as you perhaps call them are worth something in the forming of your lives in the forming of your character. You can enjoy more thoroughly the sunshine after looking at the clouds. If you have made a mistake in the vear almost gone by being too selfish now is the time to change your ways for Every day is a fresh beginning, Every morn is the world made new, and resolve to be a better person in the coming year. Try to do a great or amount of good for yourself, your family, vour community and the New Year will reflect upon you the good you have done. Another year as we have said before has circled over the dial-plate of Time.

In the recollection of the past the mistakes and errors are usually given the more prominent place and the desire for improvement in the future is uppermost in the minds and hearts. It is a matter of some satisfaction and a cause for thanksgiving that the changing of the years fittingly suggests a pause in the mad rush of life and leads to serious and sober reflection with a mighty strong sentiment for betterment. As the dawn of the new day breaks upon you, you should not forget to cast a few glances to the retreating past which has done so much for you. R. FOLLMER, President H.
