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. Attoiroy J, R.

(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, ;-, .' ; ."
