Well, I am back at horn again and started in the busi ness for 1915, a year in whic1 we are expecting the war tV cease, and peace on earth, gooi will to men will be the topic il every neighborhood, and soul may be sayeal instead of lost What a pity is war.

E. H. Aull, editor, and a mighty good semi-weekly newspaper. In a statement made last week Mr. - Aull said he was sure he could pay all the indebtedness of his paper if allowed to continue it, but some of his creditors would not wait and the plant will be sold this month. Mr. Aull gives as one of the chief n't reasons of his inability to satisfy his creditors at this time that he has been a poor collector and that at one time he nly charged off of his books between twelve and fifteen thousand dollars of subscrip tion accounts which his subscribers her owed him and which was never paid. law Newspaper men are the only people in the world who credit anybody and everybody and it is the credit system ssh- which keeps a great many of them "in ers the hole" all the time. At the present price of paper there is no profit to the jublishers, and every time a subscriber *t- fails to pay for past due subscription ne- the publisher is that much behind. A newspaper publisher who runs his paper on the credit plan stands about ew as much chance of coming out on top as i." any man who daily wrestles with John Barleycorn stands of winning. Col. Aull had been with the Herald 1 is and News about twenty-eight years and the we can imagine how he feels. to be ut? pushed out after all these years of labor for his county. ne The Sentinel hopes that the future un, has in store something good for Mr. ght Aull. We haven't heard of anybody refer to ring to it this year as the lagislature. Dl" ice The beef packers intimate that beef steak may be a luxury before long. It may be a luxury right now, but the e's kind we have been getting lately should e- be used for sorniething else. 2g While we have been giving our means and time to help relieve the sufferings m of the Belgians and the vast army of unemployed at home, it seems that ire overlooked one of our - S! the orphan- children of 6 try. The orphan is the unfortunate we have, and tnere arc great possibilities for good or is evil in him if he receives the proper care and training. If he is reglected he will probably cost the statiore to be convict and punish him for 0es than er- it would cost to give hGnfp;;i1*ain "r ing. By all means give all you can afford to give to all unfortunates; but, nfor the protection of society in general, "do not neglect the orphans. If they are er- trained right we will profit thereby; if 3Y theysare allowed to shift for themselves they will fill our jails and almshouses. ngUnited Action Is What Counts "Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his Sfriend." So wrote Solomon, the wisest ad of men, thousands and thousands of ryears ago; but it is an observation to which our farming classes in all ages have given little heed. They have pre to ferred to work alone, each man f'-" M ~ y contact with others.
