When we word children tlie: year wascndlessly long,and from one Christmas to‘ the next waT an age. As we grow older the years pass more quickly. We , have so much to do that the days are really too short to accom plish all that we ha\V plahned. We are surprised to find tha-t. this year hits gone; htjt a 1110re important question is, llowslgill we re gard the passing year and how sluil 1 we face'ttiTrrrTnv year? The year that has gone was a notable ope for us. Passing over the flurry of the Sparfish-Amer- ican war whichmade, hardly^a ripple upon the surface of our .lives, this year 1 marks, our en trance into the greatest war of all history. Since our entrance in April, tin 1 remaining months have seen us bending and -Co ordinating every resource toward its success, in some small wavs we have felt it* -pinch.- T^cre. are many homes rriPlhi's''State from \Vuich young men have gone into rlmai'my• This has meant a tenuKniess ’ of hearts that wo did- not lent so long as the war was entifely'm Kurope. The spirit of patriotism Ra^lbeen deeply aroused in .till class? both races, anil the issmj>K)f the war have become vital issues in every family. v Tlie past year has been ' the highticUKif prosperity with every class' of our pf'gplo. -This was. pa rflyclue To the' ihcreased cost of living, l>ut more largely to the fact that those who bought had „ enough.money to' payjthevprices asked. The extraordinary influx of niouey into this State has run into millions of dollars. The more improvident classes, have •pent it as rapidly as they re ceived iU The miserly xtasseB have hoarded theirs., - ’'while the wise.and patriotic classes have put much of tlieirs into govern- -immynvestments. The people whose incomes were'-limited to salaries have really felt the keen est .pinch-Ao.meet the increased <cost of living with a stationary “salary. ‘ . 1 x The labor situation has become complex. Agriculture differs from.manufacturing interests in • v vhat it has but a small nuiybyy of unemployed persons;, whily. in industrial centers the unem ployed rapidly increases or de creases. Industrial workers drift rapidly, from place to place or occupation to occupation to meet the demand, but agricuRu- [ ral workers are largely station-; i >t *ry. The majority those t drawn into Jtlie army havejaot * materially affected our farming * interests, but the conditions of of extraordinary wages; paid in viiicantoument construction have tip to ^re or less demoralized our la* ftr< “ a -. .
