THE REPUBLICAN , OUSTER COUNTY , ! NEBRASKA. START NEW YEAR WITH CLEAN SLATE OLD YEAR DRAWING TO A CLOSE THE NEW ONE NEAR. GET SQUARE WITH WORLD Old Hates Should be Forgotten. Wounds Should be Healed Make ( he New Year Brighter and Better. Forget Unplcastnt Events. The year 1908 in rapidly draw ing ; to a close and it is time to wipe off the slate and begin anew. Old things arc passing' away and the threshold of the new is drawing ingnear. . Old hates are fading and new tics and new loves begin. The business man will open a new set of books at the begin ning of the year , He closes up lii'i accounts and squares his debts. Tic dcoircs to commence the new year with a clean book and to him it would seem sacri lege to begin the new year with out balancing the old accounts. Old Hook is soiled. The old book has been thumb- en so often that its covers arc soiled , its corners arc shattered and its pages are badly stained. The brightnesaof its lines of red and blue is faded and here and there an ugly ink blot disfig ures the page that was once as bright and fair as a summer day. The year of life just closing is like unto the old ledger. In the moral and social volume for the past year you will find' like the business man's ledger , some ac counts show a balance in your favor and some you owe your neighbor. To some you owe a debt of unacknowledged grati tude. On some you have drawn favors not repaid and a few per haps , have failed to appreciate your kindness to them. But , af- terall , when the years book is balanced we will flnd that a cred- id is due to our fellows rather than to ourselves. Make New Volume Clean. There is something more than balancing the old accounts. The The new book will have clean , bright pagCB to begin with. There are the old blots , the old hates to forget , the wounds that must be healed nnd the tears that arc to be wiped away. You can not keep the new book clean if you carry the old blots , the old hates , the long standing differ ences onto the new pages. Make the new volume of your life in the new ledger clean and unspot ted. Forget the unpleasant events , the disagreeable episodes of the past year and contribute something to a more commend able and a brighter year that is soon to break in upon us with its pages pure unturned.
