THE HOT LAKES CHRONICLE AND Tourists' Journal. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1895.
ic ~ : ; j, OItniSTJIAS has once more come round ipvhen it behoves us fo wish our supjporters —and, for the matter of that, our .■non-supporters—all the compliments of the season. Here, as in most other communities, there are carping individuals to be met with endued, as the American humorist puts it, " with an immoral twist Eof pure cussedness," who retort that in the struggle for existence now going on .there is little inducement to pass empty 'compliments. They point to the rigorous winter which we have passed through, to the protracted opening of the season, fo the heedlessness shown by the Government in developing the resources of this:inarvellous district, and launch forth all 'sorts of pessimistic prognostications concerning things in general. There is, no doubt, much truth in what is said, but .our philosophy at Christmas-tide prompts us to make tho best of existing things, iand, standing as we are on the threshold of another year, trust that the coming months may be laden with a panacea foiall our ills. Witli this brief homily we wish each and every one of our readers A Meki.t Chiijst.mas AX I) A Haitv New Yeah.
