Salesday in January.
January salesdav is perb 'ps the most im
p ir'ant commercial day ol the 3155 which
comprises the caland.?r year No mutter
how stormy a*id tempestous the weather
or how fair or ca'm it may be. the larmers
of the county, as a rule, leave tLe cheerfulness
ol thc-ir comfortable and pleasant
homes to congregate at the Court Hoose
for tne purpose of transacting such besiness
as they may have in hand and also to
complete all necessary arrangements for the
succe-stul prosecution of farming op<rations
for the coining s ason. This might
also be considered as as a ga!a day for mere
social considerations are the inducements
which impels m >.ny of our (jour try Conssins
to spend one day out of the year iu
town, and this class swelled the already
large crowd into huge proportions and onr
streets presented quite .a lively and busy
appearance.
It is an omen of good to see town and
country folks commingling in friendly relation".
It draws us closer together an!
cements and rivets the bonds ot humanity
which should, and was so intended by the
Creator ot all things, bind frail humanity in
bonds of love. We can better understand
the needs and necessities of one another
and thus be able to lighten the burden ol
! some poor stuggling brother who is totter
ing under a weight of cares and adversities
and by doing so mike the world happier
and brighter for ourself. Every good deed
performed will bring its own reward.
We too often ueglector of f a::n s .-Is?:* ~ur
eyes and stop our ears to the demands ol
social duties, lu the mad rash after the
A'.mightv Dollar we are forgetful of our
higher and nobler relations in reference to
God and man. We are prone to crush and
grind, to smother and drown all that impedes
our way, totally regadless of the
suffering and misery, the piin and sorrow
we leave behind as milestones of condemnation
that will surely rise in judgement
ag iinst us in the day of reckoning when
we will be forced to ask ourselves the question,
Am I my brother's keeper."
Let us turn over a new leaf and upon
its unsullied page write the determination
to be mora thoughtful and considerate of
the feelings of others in our intercourse
with our fellow mm and more sociable with
our friends aud neighbors in the future
than we have ever been in the past. This
can be accomplished without doing ourself
an injury or without the loss of a copper.
And having 'ailhlullv and conscientiously
performed our duty according to the stan 1
ards laid down in the laws of nature, the
sun shall shine more brightly, the flowers
bloom more beautiful and the birds sing
more sweetly and we will be th8 happier
in the thought that the world is bet'er by
reason of our sojourn in it.
