THURSDAY NOVEMBER 25, 1915. Cham Up. These are dark days for the world. The shadow of the war is heavier than ever on all hearts, whatever their sympathies. There is little exultation now even in victories, for we know at what a price of blood and pain every victory is won. But there are many things besides war in the world. Except for our active imaginations, most of us would feel life running on prettv much as usual. There is the same sunshine, the same life-giving air, the same autumn colors in the woods, the same joy in bountiful harvests. There is the same quiet aatisfaction of soul that has always come with the fall season, whet her in country or city. Here in our American isolation, we can live out our lives in spite of wars and rumors of wars. There is need, to be sure, of taking thought for the future, prepar ing against the tiase when war may bring home to us the wretchedness that we knew half a century ago and that Europe knows today. But that is a matter of calm decision, not for alarm and fear. We are today the moat for tunate nation in the world. There is no reason why we cannot continue so. It is a good time for the nation to take to heart the philosophy that is preached so much today to individuals—the phil osophy of confidence, of optimism, of positive thought. It is right and proper that we should feel the woes of Europe, and it is our duty to alleviate them all we can. But It ia wrong to let those woes weigh on our spirits until we lose our own buoyancy and poise. If ia better to regard the war as a doctor or a nurse regards sickness—as something to be cured, whose cure can be effect ed not through outbursts of sentimenta lism but through intelligent and cheer ful aery Ice. \ f What we believe is truth to us, else we would never beliete it. ’Your Check is ^foiir £tare«rt To look back on a happy youth is to live twice; then and now.

It it so far above anything in the newspaper line ever attempted before in Barn well County that comparison, would be out of the question. Our brethren of the press will agree with us when we say that, considering the limited facili ties of the average “country” news paper office^ it was some stunt to issue an edition the size of last week's paper. It required hard work and persistent effort and much of the credit is due to “the boys” in the composing room, who worked night and day to get the paper to our subscribers on time. We hope the majority of our readers were pleased with our efforts to give them the best paper published in this section. We jiave no way of knowing when we meet with their approval unless they tell us. This a large num- have done and we feel well paid for our work. They can help us in a material way, however, if they will tell their friends that The People is “the largest, livest, newiest paper published in Barn well County”—end we believe they can aay this truthfully.
