The mayor and one coun-' cilman of the city of Orangeburg were but the target for the lawless ? , element in that city. That the people have vindicated both men by overwhelmingly re-electing them is a cause for sincere rejoicing. HAPPY NEW YEAR! We extend to all our readers best wishes for a prosperous and happy New Year. May blessings abound and may hearts be glad throughout the year 1914. The Times has reason to be thankful. The past year has been one of prosperity for us. Our circulation climbed from 2250 to 2750. Our outlool^ is most encouraging. To the % many friends who have helped us to ^ climb upward, to the old and tried ^ subscribers, to the men and women k ^aLUnio^v county we extend our sinI Mr*' cejre thanks. We expect to reach fori v higher things during this good year f oif grace. We purpose improving the p&per in its editorial and news departments. We have, here-to-fore, been so absorbed in improving the mechanical department, that we have not been able to meet our own exI ' pfcctations in the matter of producing a{ newsy and well edited paper. We hkve before us only a few montl^ more of struggle and we will then have paid in full for one of the best Dlants in the State nf Smith ) We do not see how we could well improve upon our present equipment.! But we are now reaching forth to ( the making of a belter newspaper.1 We earnestly desire to give to the^ people of Union county a first-class newspaper. And we firmly believe we can do this. We look into the future with heart unafraid, with abounding hope; with good will to all men; with faith in our felolws; with trust in the living God. A Happy New Year to one and all. YE MEN OF ACTION! Our admiration goes out to the men and women who carry on the world's work. In shop, in field, office and mine, on land on sea?where men and women toil, the great work of the world goes on. It is something to stir the heart to be a part, although ? a very small one, of the great world of activities. And the beautiful thing about it all is that the honors are about equally divided. The humble toiler in the mill, if he be doing good w&rk faithfully, is as worthy of commendation as is the hank president. He is just as necessary as is the man of prominence. Indeed, it is upon the shoulders of the humble toiler that the men of large activities must stand. It is true that histry, in re cording the life of the great general, often overlooks the private soldier. But it would be a feeble army were there no soldiers, but only captains and leaders. It is thus in the field?of human action everywhere. And each man and woman who is honestly filling the place God has given, is as worthy of honor as any living man. > I\I TIMES THE UNION TIMES COMPANY BELL PHONE NO. 1 .Editor in, s.

JARY 2, 1914. Buffalo News Letter. Christmas has come and pone with its pleasures and sorrows and tonight as the old year is fast dying, memory goes back to childhood and refreshed with the thoughts of bygone days, lingers over happiness and joy that can never be recalled: "Roll backward., roll backward, Oh, Time In your flight. Make me a child again, Just for tonight." Ah! If we could hear in chillish innocence the stories related of old Santa Clans, and believe in the visits of St. Nicholas, the mythical Saint of years ago. Hapi y, happy days. The veil has been l'fted and we know in reality Santa Clauses are at work everywhere on Christmas night, making happy the hearts of children the worll over. Yes, children there is a real Santa Clause in every home. Look for >'?im every Christmas. Mr. R. P. Colson of the C. S. Navy after spending two weeks with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Colson, ' ?
