So this year we didn't make any good resolutions except We dhould like to see a lot of building and repairing of homes and build ings around town. Just as charity begins at home, so should the New Year get off to a good start with neces sary repair work.

What few turkeys are left can settle down to a life of se curity for the next ten months. Whenever things get so bad it seems they can't be any worse along comes a hurri cane or the first of the month to make it seem awful. The Chinese have a rare custom on New Years of forgiving all of their debtors and in turn of being forgiven. So they start a New Year with a clean slate. It seems good to us, but several of our creditors didn't seem to like the idea of forgiving us. If every one who can afford to do so could be induced to make the improve ments that they need, at least a million un employed men would be put to work. Think it over.
