THE NEW YEAR
(By Rhyme Writer)
Be merry! A new year is born,
The old year, it is past and gone;
There is no need for us to mourn
•Pr being downhearted or jeer and
scorn.
We cannot tell what this year will
bring,
'We know not how the future will
swing;
To past experience we may cling,
But time and tide changes things.
Let us look ahead with hope and
cheer,
Keep striving on and show no fear;
And should success be far or near,
Let us watch and welcome this New
Year.
^The old year; some hard times
brought,
'With many obstacles it was fraught;
yVe did not find the things we
sought
Though many lessons it may have
taught.
‘"These hard times put me in debt,”
As some have spoken that I’ve met;
‘ But wlmt’s the use of worry and fret
^Circumstances this year may help,
■you yet.
This year may bring about a change,
. ,In many ways that may seem
strange; ■
'Certain conditions we could arrange
For an alteration or exchange.
It may turn things In an upward
>;■ ■ trend, ■ 4
And give us extra ’dollars to spend;
Many good things it may yet send,’
And prove itself a real good friend.
Perhaps it has good things in store,
-Such things have happened years
before; ’
It may give labor to the poor,
’Who may be hungry with naught in
store.
T’will make some think they’re get
ting. old.
'And place “silver threads among the
gold”;
Many new things ’twill fashion and
mold
“Which in time will be bought and
sold.
Although this year is really new,
It is for all not just a few;
But in’some ways the following is
true
A-ccoriding to your deeds it will treat
you.
It may bring health to the sick some
day,
Also help the needy in some way;
Perhaps bring pleasure to make us
gay
And cause hard-times to pass away.
;The old year is past perhaps gone
forever,
Will it return, I think not never!
•So this New Yeai* let us endeavour
\To act neighborly and no friendship
■ sever.
I wish my readers health and cheer,
From all misfortune may you keel)
• clear;
. On the road to prosperity may you
steer
And to all I wish “A Happy New
. Year.” •

The British pound sterling is still anaemc while the
dollar in New York wears still a lean and hungry look.
New York bankers are still playing Sihylock a good many
municipalities who delight in borrowing abroad rather
home, are finding out that a municipality’s first duty is to its own
people. However, as long as borrowing municipalities are content
to elect stupid men to do their financing they should keep right
on smiling as the wideawake New Yorkers make them pay right
through the nose.
The simple fact is that Canada’s business has not improved to
anything like a satisfactorydegree. The value of field crops with
in 1931 shrank about $200,000,000 as compared with 1929 the
shrinkage in value in these crops has been something like $517,-
000,000. (Canadian exports have fallen off by more than $15,-
000,000. These figures are suggestive. The trade figures make
depressing reading. If there is any comfort in the thought that
misery likes company, Canada is free to help herself to the con
solation that comes from the fact that Canada’s financial position
is a little better than that of other nations.
Che pity of it is that civilization refuses to take the only path
that leads to peace, the path of earning one’s money and having
one’s money before the money is spent. The crude material of our
financial world never will take proper shape as long as eau de

will be balanced as long as governments and households and indi
viduals practice the folly of having their expenditures exceed their
income. Yet that’s the Very practice many folk are following.

EARLY MORNING BLAZE

BLYTH, Ont,, Jan. 3.—Citizens of
Blyth were aroused at 4 a.m. Sun
day by the unwelcome sound of the
fire alarm, the blaze being in the
Chambers block in the centre of the
main street, and consisting of Gid-
ley’s tailor shop and haberdashery^
where the fire started, extending to
the Odd Fellow’s Hall above and
then across to the Masonic Hall, but
by valiant work of the firemen it
was stopped from getting down to
the Bank of Commerce. These places
are all in the same block. Gidley’s
store and stock are a complete loss'
with nothing saved. The stock was
valued at about $6,000’, with an in
surance of $3,-500. The Odd Fel
lows’ and Masonic paraphenalia,
books and furniture are also a com
plete loss, being partially insured.
Tli'e loss to .the building is a heavy
one, but fairly well insured.
In all probability the block will
be rebuilt. The cause of th’e fire is
unknown.
