We wish you a
New Year
The rush of Christmas shopping is over and
we find numerous broken lines of goods on
our shelves upon which we wish to put such
a price as will induce you to purchase them
now, and we will save you rrfbney in so do
ing. We ask you to come in and investigate.
In these days when every heart thrills with
patriotic emotions, and every' one is disposed
to do "their bit" the demands upon us in a
financial way are somewhat heavy, 'and ev
ery dollar we can sav.e by judicious buying
will enable us to invest more in those things
that will help in saving our country and
adding some comfort? for the boys at
the front who are making the supreme sac
rifice. And, again, let us wish you a happy
and prosperous New Year.

When New Year's Comes
Shall we make new resolutions?
For the first of the year?
If we do we must get busy
For it is almost here.
That now resolves will all be
kept
We need not be afraid.
But any how it's just as well
If some effort is made.
And when our friends tell what
they are,
We know they will not last.
For well we know in a few
weeks
They'll be things of the paBt.

Thnt is some folks' belief.
And bo when Now Year's comes
around
They turn o'er a new leaf.
Now if you think you can im
prove
On the year you lived through.
Best wishes I extend to and
hope
Success will come to you.
What ever change that you may
make
The future brighter look.
Don't turn a leaf or any page,
But start with a new nook.
So for thnt night we plan ahead
borne place where wo wil go
To church, watch meeting or
with friends,
To dance or to some show.
Wo plan to have n jolly time,
bo early we begin.
When e'er we wntch the old
year out
And watch the new one in.
There's many ways to celebrate
We choose our own somehow.
And stillness reigns when they
announce
The year is passing now.
And as wc look upon the hands
Wo keen a watchful eye.
And when both hands are over
twelve
Wo know the year's gono by.
The bells are rung the whistles

TO OUR FRIENDS AND PATRONS:
St. Johns never before had such a
Christmas business as the merchants
have all had this year. The buying
public never was so good natured, so
considerate of the overworked sales
people as they have been this season.
For this spirit we, and all of our help,
are grateful. So we thank you for your
generous patronage and extend to you
our best wishes for a most happy and
prosperous nineteen hundred eighteen.
