Revenues of the. city are. steadily In creasing, and In Jike ratio- its bonded obligations are as steadily decreasing. Municipally the financial outlook is not one of depression even during Hie- days of readjustment. In the face of all contingencies which that term implies. , ; , ' , In this connection, certainly the edu cational factor is not to be ignored, and Supt. Briscoe adds -a brief mes sage, congratulatory in sentiment as to conditions past, present ad future, epitomizing as follows: "The dawn of the naleildar year marks near the end of the first semes ter of the school year, in which, thru the hearty cooperation and the earnest efforts of the patrons, the past semes ter has been an exceedingly successful one. The student body is pleased to note the whole American-like spirit of the students of the Ashland schools, and looks forward to the remaining semesters with thoughts alive to the education of the scholars. Aud now that the season of festivities has closed, the school officials ask the co operation of pupils, parents, and citi zens In the work Bide of school life to the end that the common, welfare of our people may be best assured. 'UJierefore we wish for all of us not only a Happy New Year, but as well a year .in which all pur mutual inter ests may find the heartiest support." Opportunely, - the American Legion is also heard from, and the local or ganization, which according to the tenets of the legion, spells "loyalty" with a capital "L," sends through its commander, Glenn E. Simpson and his efficient subordinates, the following greeting in behalf of the rank and file wheresoever dispersed: "Ashland post No. 14 of the Ameri can legion faces the New Year with plans for the liveliest and most active year it has had since its organization. Included. In these plans are those. of complete reorganization and the or ganization or the Women's Auxiliary. Within the next weeks the member ship expect to start activities with a bang and carry on actively during the 'ear- . "Composed. as it is of the youth of the city-and community the local poBt, with its auxiliary, can and will be the most compact group for the upbuilding of the community. "The new ritual and initiation cere monies of the American Legion are equal to those of any lodge or organi zation In the country, and will be a big factor in making the local post & real organization. "It Is the spirit of peace and good will that the members of Ashland poBt greet you and wish you a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous. New Year." . H. S. BASKETBALL .
