You don’t have to be optim istic to

are evident everyw here. The more

except in some o fth e eastern fact
ory d istric ts w here th e coal strik e
is keeping prosperity aw ay. A g ra d

several weeks.
It is perhaps too much to say th a t
1922 w ill be a big year. F ran k ly we
don’t th in k it w ill, eith er h ere or
anyw here else. It is not to be expect
ed th a t th e w orld w ill get back to
prosperity so soon a fte r a g re a t spree
like th e g re a t w ar. b u t th ere is no
reason for depression and unem ploy

B usiness men in H erm iston are
very much encouraged. If you doubt
I t nttk them . T hey find business
grad u ally p icking up and they find
money m ore p len tifu l. T his is due
to the paym ents w hich th e hay grow
ers are receiving and to new In d u st
ries like th e cream ery.
These a re h ealth y signs and they
mean th a t we are all going to be kept
busy. We a re not going to get rich
in 1922, b u t we are going to have
w ork to do. Good bye Mr. D epres
