Entering upon another year, we look back on the year just passed and it is pleasing to see that it was a year of progress in Manilla. New buildings have been erected, the po- pulation has increased so that the school board have found it necessary to add another teacher. Our cement walks have been extended. Nobody is rich. but all have plenty. What more does one need ? Of course it is not all sunshine. as in every other place under the sun, we have a few, very few, “knockers." There is the fellow who thinks it shows knowledge to belittle his village by slightingly comparing it with some city, the tel- 10w who tries to make himself im- portant by saying the people in his home town, are no good, they all call me old John Doe, when I’m in any other place they Call me Mr. John Doe. Then there is the fellow who derides everybody else and their busi- ness, thinking thereby to boost his own. He is the worst of all. To them we say start the new year ri'rbt, This is a communit_ where we should all help one another, Cut mt the kicking. Get busy, help the “‘7': fellow citizens, and your vilâ€" “'6.
