Btfort this issue at The Peo
' "pie reaches oar readers, Christ
inasVill have passed, and the
dawn of a New Year be upon us.
Christmas is a li allowed season,
not to be marked by exhibition
ofradne Joyousness, :;s it is
more properly a season, or an
'occasion for the congregation of
all Christians in their churches
for the purpose of giving thanks
toGodtforHis mercy to dying
humanity in offering up His Bon
to ah ignominious death that We
Jntght be saved.
The New Year however should
naturally be differently observed.
Rejoicing by the many should be
the Order of the day. The old
yeur Is a thing of memory. There
are none so poor but have had
some blessing bestowed upon
them during the past year over
which they may take the New
Year day as a day of rejoicing
, and feasting. We never experi -
ence a more pleasont feeling on
New Year's day than when meet
ing a friend, or, even a stfanger
thah to greet them with "A Hap
py New Year to you".
Feeling a profound sense of
thankfullness ourselves for the
blessings bestowed uj>on us
during the year just past, and'
with full confidence in the Fath
er that he will continue to favor
us, it is natural that we take
pleasure in extending the wish
that others fbould be equally
favored.
TO OUR SI/BSC KlBfcUS.
Allow us to Congratulate you
upon the happy outcome of
Christmas. So far we have not
heard Of a.single incidint to mar
the day. This applies to our
Own community and the county.
As to ourselves, the only form
of dissipation in which we in
dulged was in the eating of too
tauchtiurRey, for which we were
duly, punished. At the begin^
ning of the New Year, whicfi
wiii tar'Vipon U9 before the next
issue -of The People reaches
you, w'?v want. to make there
quest % it among the good reso
lutions mule by you on that day
is to help us' out by making a
faithful effort to secure for us at
least one new subscriber.
We have endeavored to lie em
inently faithful to your interests
during the past year, and are
profoundly grateful for not only
the material, but the moral sup
port that lias l>een rendered us.
You can, however, do better
with little effort. It is our pur
pose to make The People a power
in this State. To accomplish
this puri>ose, it ij absolutely
necessary that the publisher mid
his patrons be in perfect accord,
each working toward a common
* Ifoal. ?
Along this line, while we do
not like to mnr in any manner,
the remarks above, we will have
to remind our subscribers and
others who are indebted to us
that the tlirie is rapidly ap
proach ing for the payment of
taxes and insurance. These two
things must be attended to. It
Crn t>nly bo done with money.
We have numbers and numbers
of good subscribers 011 our books
who owe for their papers, We
feel assured that it is simple
carelessness that we have not,
yet received the money. Come
on friends. Let us start the New
Year with as clean a sheet as
possible. t
We wish you all a Happy New
Year.

dial invitation extended us last
Week to preside at the Christ
mas exercises of the Ebeneser
High School on last Thursday
nijrht. Mr. J. A. Orlgsby is the
elfeeient principal of this school .
We tears that the program waa
beautifaUy carried off. On the
next occasion of this kind, if we
are favored with another invita
tion, we hope that nothing will
prevent our attendance.
