We hope that you had as pleasant time as we did. We wish you one aud all a happy and prosperous New Year. Once more the tide has brought us to the flood titnepf noliU-i things —the world has again sWung around to the days when men's thoughts are arrested by old, famil iar, holy things, made ever new by the freshness with which childish eyes gaze upon them and childish tongnes tell of them. Christmas day was almost like a summer day, it was so mild and clear. It reminded one more of a June day than it did of Christmas While the Christmas spirit seemed to fill everyone, yet, the lack of the noise and hubbub incident to this occasion, as is usual the case, made many remark that it did not set in like Christmas. Who is paying the immense stuns which it must cost to send broad cast throughout the country the lxiok written by Chancellor Day of Syracuse University in which lie attacks the Roosvelt policies and lauds the Standard Oid Company to. the skies?

Heip Your Town Grow No towu will become a good busi ness center so long as its business men rely 011 a few merchants to make the offort to bring trade to town. Too often the men in a few lines of trade are about the only ones tljat reach out after custom Other merchants wait until these men induce the people to come to town and content themselves with trade that naturally drift to their place. A public spirited man fhould ask himself if lie is doing • his part to attract people to come to town to trade in helping the en " tire busiiisss commumtv, and no town is a success unless all lines are working to extend the trade as far as possible and trying to bring a larger territory in the circles in which the town is the business center. Why MOve? These are the days when the dis- j contented farmer's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of moving. The great railway systems of the West, flood the mails with manuals setting j forth the beauties and Virtues of | this and that region, each claiming to be parexcellence the home-seek ens paradise- Agriculture has in this aspect taken the place of min- j * iug. In former times the "new! country" that offered the most at tractions to settlers from a distance ! was that in which gold was taken out of the ground in big yellow nuggets or infinitessimal dust; in these later days the search is still; for a quick fortune, but the medium exploited is the growiug crop, j which can be turned into gold—or greenbacks—by the slowei process-1 es ot planting, cultivating and bar-1 vesting; and the pioreer now has for his emblems the gang-plew at.d the reaping machine, instead of the pick and pan. Now, the advertis-! ing circulars teem with prints in ] which the settler's comfortable homestead aud happy family are shown, projected against fields of heavy-headed grain, trersproauing under apples and peaches pro|>or- j tionatelyas large as watermelona, and the cattle of a thousand hills - grouped in a pen by the side of. the lailrond, awaiting rapid shipment to markets where buyers stand in Sliae, longing lor the chance to diaw I KvU ~ :• ■ ■ T A Cough Medicine Ayer's Cherry Pectoral is a regular cough medicine,, a strong medicine, a doctor's medicine.

Christmas Celebration ol the Episcopal Sunday School The Christmas celebration of the Sunday School of the Chinch of the Advent was held last night at the Rectory between the hours of seven aud nine. The children were there, the teachers were there, Mie fond tnolhets were there, and last, but not least surely, there was pres ent that delight of hearts, both young aud old, Old Santa Claus. The cry of hard times did not seem to have affected the old fellow much as he brought with hint a tree well stocked with gifts to please. At least, says he, Christmas spirit is Christmas spirit whatever the rimes may be. To begin with, the children gathered around the piano and sang the glad Christmas hvmns. After some Christmas words and questions by Mr. Gordon Sinta Clans was introduced. He asked first for the presentation ,of the two prizes given by Mrs. I). S. Higgs. The first was for the best Sunday School record for the church year of 1907. It was a very close cou test The award of a t,s ir«bl was made to Charles Higgs. Fine recoids were also made by Louise Upton, Sylvia Upton, Richard Smith, George Howard Kent, I.nurd Kllison, Pennie Higgs, l.ou ise and Hannah Vic Fowden. The second prize given to the one bring ing the greatest number of new scholars was awarded to little Miss Mary Cook, it was a beautiful doll. After these presentations by Mr. Gordon, Old Santa got busy and each scholar was given a gift from the tree, with u card and a bag of eatables. The Sunday- School Teachers: Misses llattie Thrower, Muvo I.ainl) and Miss Gordon, and Mes |dames I). S Higgs, K. 1). Carter and K. H. Crawfoid, each received appropriate gifts, Miss Nannie Smith was given a church hytuunl iti appreciation of her faithful ser vices as church and Sunday School organist. Mrs. and Miss Gordon 1 each received a special remem ibrauce from the ladies of the Church, aud lastly, Miss llattie Thrower, in behalf of the Woman's Auxiliary and Guild, presented to Mr. Gordon a beautiful vestment lease, as their Christmas remeui« bra nee.
