THE NEW AND THE OLD
Another year is past and we are now started into
1915. While the year just closed has been in some re-
spects a very trying one, yet, on the whole, the people of
our little city and valley have not very great cause to
complain. It has been said that “comparisons are odi
ous,” but many things are best shown by comparing with
something else. If we compare conditions here with
those existing in some less favored region we find that
while we may not have everything as we would like it to
be, we are yet better situated than many others.
The present outlook for 1915, is not overly bright al
though indications of returning prosperity are claimed Ly
many leaders in the financial world: with bounteous crops
the past year there seems to be no reason why the pres
ent depression should continue, why 1915 should not bring
in an era of prosperity for the Amercian people.
This is the time of year when managers of commer
cial establishments invoice their stock of goods for the
purpose of determining the financial condition of the con
cern at the beginning of a new year. The inventory be
ing completed the manager is able to determine whether
the concern has been a loser or a gainer during the past
year and is better qualified to plan the future transac
tions. Would it not also be wise to take “inventory” of
our progress along other lines as well? Have you made
the most of your opportunities during the past year?
IIow many things have been done which would have been
better left undone, and how can we best avoid in the iu-
ture the mistakes of the past?
