THE NEW YEAR
Hie new year is here,
s a matter of history
i j
the year 1916
prove. The
dawntd upon us with
hticrhter orosoects th
the last one. Our barns are
fuller and our finances are in
better condition, The Mex
ican problem has about cor
rected itself and bloody Eu
ropean heads are looking to
ward peace.
The Herald begins the new
year with a heart full of
thanks for the measure of
success attained and bright
with its prospects for the fu
ture. No new year ever held
out bette r promise of prosper
ity.' As we reflect upon the de
parted yar we call to mind
those who have stood by us
and whisper a silent ''Thank
you."
May the year 1916 see
peace come upon theearth and
the inhabitants jay aside the
sword and spear and take
again the tools of industry
and begin to rebuild what
has been torn down. May
all men every where come to
the conclusion that "What
soever concerns humanity
concerns me." and act accordingly.

OILING SPRINGS
S cheel ib is past due and must be
paid.
(This article was intended for
last week's Issue but as we had
no paper last week wu use it iu'
this issue hoping that It il!
serve its purpose at least In part.
Editor.)
Dear Brethren:-
There yet remains a balance
of more than $600.00 unpaid on-
the old indebtedness of the Boil
ing Springs High School. This
must be paid without further
delay and stop th accuuilaliou'
of interest. The party to whom
the money is due needs it. He
has been exceedingly kind and
patient with us.
Tfae trustees have In hand in'
the form of notes and subscript
ions ample lunds to more than'
cover this indebtedness if paid.
Some of these pledges -vera
made several years ago, while
Mie larger nuuber were made
during the gieat canvass in tho
fall and winter of 1912 111 and
finally, at tho sessions of tho
two A-seociations in 1914 at Pop
lar Springs and Greeu's Urek,,
respectively. More than u third
of the pledges made by church
es individuals at the Associa
tions in 1914 have not been paid,
although, tho' minutes' of boJi
Association give the names and'
p'.cdg.B.
Brother.' ijf your note or yo-ir
pledge, or that of your church,
is still upaid. please see that
same is forwarded immedately
to Mr. E. B, Hamrick, Treasur
er, Shelby. N. C, R, No. 3. On
January 1st. 1916. collector will
be placed in the field to collect
all unpaid notes and subscript
ions. , Thi will be expensive to
the Bmrd and every dollar sent
in by January 1st will save
that mueh expense.
Wo believe the brethren made
these'piedges lu good faith that .
it has only been by oversiget
that same hava not been paid, '
But the time has come now when1,
Uiese must be paid or tho Trus
tees will bo called upon to . meet'
the deficit, although the present'
and former Trustees, jointly,
have already contributed a largo
part of the mbner raised for Qur,
beloved school. I know our
brethren too well to believe that'
they will suffer the Trustees t,!
pay this balance when hn"
pledges, if p;-iu, are ample for
this purpose. .
The Board ha. long since Tin ,
cided that it will nevei again
call on the Associations for
further pledges to this old ia- .
libtedness, but if o'ny brother
has no pledge against him , fuels'
called upon to send a coritrbu
tion to our Treasurer ' for this'
pa pose, it will be gladly and
thankfully received, ;-, .' ; ." '.-':
The Lord has richly ; blessed
oiii-country this year andjschool .
is uoing well. This is auspic
ious time (or closing up this old
score. This is positively bnr
last public notice; but, if they
do uot respond by Janiiar fat,
uoltectors will call upon thenj
We shall eioect our brefhreu id
do their Christian duty:
