This is a question that we are likolv to ask on the eve of the advent of 1022. We cannot answer except by telling our hopes. It is a wise 'provision of nature that we cannot see into the future. In making predictions we only judge what the future will be by reason of what has happened on the past, and by taking a survey of things as they exist in the living present. Deciding; tho answer in that way, we answer and say that tho now year holds in store for us a period of progress and development such as wo have not had in the e len tli time anywhere in the past. The reason that this appears is plnin ' > all who will take a moment to look :it the situation. The county in which we live is in the midst of one of the finest atvricuUural region on the map. Farming here as compare:! to farming in the pied no- < very easy tbbuv in whi^h to succeed. It was only so?re yea i s back when the peope of thi campy had not fully realized tho possibilities that lie in the so:ls o'' our county, hut they had depended to a great extent upon the products of the forests, such ,as turpentine. timber, tar. staves, shingles and lumber. Within the last few yenrs the way of living has started a great change. It is a change for the best and one that will lead this count1/ to the top as a food growing place and also .as the producer of great money crops. The year of 1^22. we believe will see this greatly nd vnnrtf?d: nnrl rlnrinrr flint tinio m operative marketing will have gained a strong foothold among the farmers so that they will he getting in fine shape lo control the marketing of everything that they can produce, and will get the best prices that the markes of his country will afford. As to Conway, look where it is located! How can a town fail to grow located as it is in the center of such a wide territory? It has grown wonderfully in the last several years. It is due to exceed all records of t'n past during the year 1922 and th years that are to come after. Taking everything into consideration. in the opinion of the Herald, the new year that is now at our very doors will bring peace, prosperity and satisfaction to those who have, and are still patiently working out the purposes of creation in this town and county. o While the officovc- of tho law \vretrying to tear up stills ahead of tho holid av season, whi-^ev stiliars seemto nrodurr the unlawful fluid. This is the opinion of one of the rural policemen who Iris bomi quite active in tho location of illicit stills. Tt is not always the best for you to endorse another man's note, and here we are speaking of him and not of you. Money easily obtained by] means of a friend's endorsement has kept manv .an able bodied man from work find caused Mm to got into habits that lead to his final ruin. Tt is true that no man can live unto himself. At the same time each man must ho ,o separate entity and if he would do anything in the world ho must place his individual success far ahovo tho success of others. The success of others will not he credited to him Soive men do not seem to realize this fact. i # " The t'*mes are good for anv man who >s not () ) much in deht.

If only our work can be continued until these children reach maturity a new generation will arise to face the problems of the Near Ka>t with the benefit of their American training to help them. At present, however, we are confronted by the possibility of having to abandon them because of lack of f?nds. This will mean not only the wasting of what has already been accomplished but will also result in riie death of the majority of these wards, American charity.

"In other words, the increased tran^lortation charge on lumber shipments nto Chicago, as a result of the exhaustion of lite forest regions surrounding it, represents a toll of $22,500,000 annually.

"We are cutting our timher probably lour times as fast as timber is being ^rown. It is useless t<> decry the generous use which American industry lias made of our forests. It has contrihuted powerfully to the industrial development and commercial supremacy of the 1'nited States. The forestry problem does not result from the liberal use of our forests, but from our failure to use our forestgrowing land. There is an ample area of land in this country, which is not tillable, to support all of our timber requirements, all of our wood manufacturers, all of our home building and agricultural use of lumber, indeed, ;in even larger export trade than at present, If that land can he kept at work growing timber.
