Your friendship and goodwill during 1917 have been enjoyed and appreciated. We shall do our utmost to de serve a continuation and increase of same during 1918, and thus help you as well as ourselves enjoy a full measure of New Year happi ness. TUM-A-LUM LUMBER-COMPANY that they secured 1 subscription out of every 18. This is a splendid record for the boys of Anlerica and a hope ful sign for the future of the country when the boys of the land are willing and able to perform such valuable public service. It is to leave them such national heritage as our forefathers of the Revolution bequeathed to their descendants that the pro ceeds of the Liberty Loan are to be used. t-i A bunch of young hoodlums who evidently think they have the privilege of going to any extreme when up to their many pranks, just about reached the limit Wednesday night when they broke out a lot of glass in the ticket window of a local theater. The law should take care of such irresponsible chil dren, if the parents will not. I I I FIRST NATIONAL BANK j5 'S pi jjll To the Public: JJ The success of a Bank may be attributed to: a knowledge of its particular locality, a desire to ren der personal and individual service to promote the welfare of its cus tomers, and resources able to meet all demands. The First National Bank meets these requirements. We Invite Your oAccounts PEACE AND PROSPERITY. The Gazette-Times extends to its host of readersreetinir-; of the season. Let us all work together as never before, in the true spirit of American patriotism to the end that a speedy r ial lasting peace be brought to a democratized World. That the year of 1918 may be frought with blessings to the people of our country, at home or abroad, and that our men in uniform will all be returned safely to us at no far distant date, is our wish and our prayer. The past year has been one of prosperity for the people of Morrow county and seemingly the horrors of war have not in vaded this peaceful territory. We should be truly thankful. What the new year holds forth for us we cannot say. But with a firm and steadfast resolution we can meet the future with the same spirit that dominated our forefathers when they also bat tled for those same principles of liberty. Let us all make sacrifices during the year 1918, thereby giving every possible bit of strength to our young manhood of the nation who are making such sacrifices for us. Let us stand bv the President of this United States and uphold the adminis tration in this critical period. And, above all,-let us keep ever before us the thought that we are all Americans and as such we must stand ever ready to do the bidding when duty calls. The principles for which we are fighting alone make life worth liv ing, and it must indeed be disheartening to the King of Prussia to know that the American people are into the struggle to the last mm to maintain these principles. THE BOY SCOUTS AND THE LIBERTY LOAN. The report of the work of the Boy Scouts of America in the Second Liberty Loan drive made public recently shows that they .were directly responsible for the sale of $101,133,G00 in bonds. This means that they produced about 5 per cent of the to tal subscriptions to the loan, and the number they sold show CMJ1CI ISHES you all a Happy New Year. Our services next Sunday will center around the thought of the closing and opening year. Where are the years in their flight taking us? What are we getting out of them in permanent values? ' That is, in character for other values we must leave behind in the end. What are we putting into them that is, of good will and good deeds? Begin the new year right by a purpose to turn away from care and pleasures at least one day in the week and to join your neigh bors in public worship. Red Cross, Y. M. C. A., and modern democra cy all have their birth and inspir ation in the christian church. The same is true of many other good institutions. You are enjoying the benefits of the Influences which God is sending into the world and the community through His peo ple; are you encouraging tin; churches by attending their ser vices? Come out to the church of your preference next Sunday and so do your share toward making them strong for righteousness in the community and in the nation. Dark clouds hover over us as we enter the new year.- Shall we not turn humbly and reverently to God and seek his blessing. H. A. NOTES, Pastor. SOME GOOD ADVICE Strengthened ,y Heppner Kxper iences. Kidney disease is too dangerous to neglect. At the first sign of back ache, headache, dizziness or bladder disorders, you should give the weak ened kidneys prompt attention. Eat little meat, take things easier and use a reliable kidney tonic. There's no other kidney medicine so well rec ommended as Doan's Kidney Pills. Heppner people rely on them. Here's one of the many statements from Heppner people. Mrs. A. G. Devore says: "Speak ing from past experience, I gladly , recommend Doan's Kidny ePills. I know they are a medicine of merit and I couldn't recommend a more re liable one." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that I Mirs. DeVore had. Foster-Mllburn . Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y. . si 111 GREETINGS: ET us resolve that in this New Year we shall make the most of time; that we shall be proud of each day's work and happy at the prospect of the labors of to morrow; that we shall carry happiness with us into our bus iness houses and show a joyous heart to our neighbors; that each day shall find new progress toward the goal of our ambi tion. And that at the end of the twelve months before us we shall find our homes better homes, our lives better lives and ourselves better men. Sam Hughes Co.
