WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 3, 1923. THE NEW YEAR.
THE NEW YEAR has now been entered upon and whether it will be a year of development and progress in this district, or a year of stagnation, will, in a great measure, depend upon the energy or inertia displayed by the individual settler and business man. Some ships drive east, and some go west, By the help of the self-same gale. It is not the gale, but the set of the sail, That determines the way they go. Several events of great local interest take place during the year. There will be the municipal elections in April, and the A. and P. Show in February and another Show in May. These events will in a great measure reflect the district. If enthusiasm and grit are displayed in making the shows a success, the whole district will feel the benefit. If they are allowed to \yitlicr (for want of proper enthusiastic support,, then the district and the individual 'will suffer. All that is needed to i)nakc 1923 a prosperous year fctyriAnklin is for every ; individual to do his or her best in every community undertaking, and the result will be a truly satisfactory one to all concerned.
“We nothing extenuate, nor aught set down in malice.”
