would have done had the dry weath

To make our business

going to be our guiding
principal again in 1930.

pointment and troubles

them over into this year
for we probably will
get tome nice new ones

for them.
A new Year I Say,
folks, if we had a mon
opoly on happiness and
prosperity we could cer
tainly pour out a
mighty generous share
for you in 1930.
W. Could Do Without
The man in the office
could do without one
meal ,a day, but he
would not like it. The
man on the farm could
get along without a
seed drill or corn plant
er he ,could do his
planting by hand. And
a woman could get
along without many la
bor saving conveniences
in her kitchen. Wc men
folks never hesitate to
buy equipment that will
save time and work.
Why ihouldn't we be as
considerate of our wives
as we are cf ourselves?
A built in kitchen cabi
net, new floors and a
coat or two of fresh
bright paint on the
wood work is what she
wants and we have
'em.
Be careful of too
many New Year resolutions.

Charlie Steele evidently had
forme the idea that he was to be J
forgotten by his friends in the mat-!
ter of a charivari, as some time had j
elupted between his marriage and'
last Sunday night. His friends, J
I oiriver, were sleeping with one:
eyr : pen, and that one looking out j
for the right kind of weather. Sun-j
1 day evening last proved an ideal
j.iii tnd several, yes, 1 great many
I friends loaded themselves with all
I kinds cf noire makers and proceed
ed to the Steele home where they
made the air resound with hideous
sounds. Charley responded like a
little man and the ''serenadcrs" de
parted after wishing the ncwlweds
all kinds of success and happiness in
their wedded relations.

The Times folks' table was grac
ed at Christmas dinner with a fine
fat turkey, one of the flock that
Frnest Confer had been fattening
for the occasion. Of course the
family did ample justice to the bird
and all (or nearly all, the editor
e.pccially) had to push the table
away from them, so well filled were
they with turkey, stuffing and the
other things that usually accompany
a Christmas dinner. F.rnest shipped
a consignment of turkeys to Port
land Sunday, receiving top price for
his birds.

lad may meet a Waterloo, as Hollo
man has been working out with VIt
End'-, who knows the fight game
from A to Izzard. It is expected
many from here will attend the
smoker.
In a letter to The Times man
from a friend at Longview we were
told that the reason our friend did
not accept our invitation to Christ
mas dinner was that our roads were
too crooked; also that our highways
had a reputation of being ued Ly
people somewhat under the influence
