THE NEW YEAR CELE-
BRATION. .
FORTUNATELY Brownwood's
servance of the dawning of
ob-
the New Year was devoid of the drunk-
enness and the fatal accidents which
featured the celebration in many oth
er cities. Xews reports of Mondav
brought the story of -wholesale viola
turn of the law. of innumerable acci
dents with their quota of latalitief."
and of maudlin debauchery ia the pop-
ular celebration of New Ye4i? Eve in
countless towns and cities Brown-i
Avboa had none of that but" ttul have
theTioisiest and most destructive Nov.
Year's Eru .of recent years.
There are several features of the
celebration here which were objec
tionable in the opinion of The Bulle-
tin. First and foremost of coarse
vere the - terrific explosions which
damaged .property along the west end
of Center avenue. The men or boys
who were responsible for -those ex-
plosions should pay for the damage
they caused and beg the forgiveness
of the people who were seriously dis-
turbed; and should make a New Year
resolution never never to do it again.
Then there -is a bi of criticism due
- r - J j V - -
those hundreds of citizens who cele
brated the dawning of the New Year
by firing guns pistols shotguns and
other weapons in such manner as to
'brinff an element of serious danger
.into the celebration. A gun is a dan-
gerous weapon at best? and it should
never be fired solely because of the
noise it is capable" of making. Nobody
was injured by the promiscuous firing
here but several people could have
been injured without the knowledge
of the persons who were firing the
guns. Last of all The Bulletin would
offer the suggestion that the fire
alarms should never be sounded ex-
cept in cases of genuine fire -calls.
' Needless confusion is caused when
the fire whistle is sounded unneces-
sarily confusion that could easily
result in the destitution of a great
ileal of property. Consider the diffi-
culty for Instance of telephoning a
genuine fire alarm Sunday night
shortly after the fire whistle had
sounded in connection- with the gon-
oral noise-making thtioughout the city.
It would have been impossible.
The Bulletin believes that the com-
ing of a New Year "Should be celebrat-
ed with humble prayer to God rather
than with the noise-making that usu-
ally is noted on NeAi? Year's Eve. In
tikis view The Bulletin may be some-
what old-fashioned. Certainly the
dawn of a" New Year is not a proper
occasion for violation of the law for
destruction of property or for need-
lessly endangering life.
"Tell everyone you meet that you
feel good and full soon you'll be f cel-
ling that way" says the Mineral Wells
Index. What do you mean "'good and
full?"

Editor Bulletin:
1 take the liberty of sending; my
personal greetings to my friends in
Brown wood and throughout 'Brown;
county. I was very agreeably sur-
prised when I saw in the Daily Bulle-
tin that I was among the numbeijhat
received A'otes for usefulness a'mUwas
still prouder wlien I noticed that I
r.as second in the balloting for the
most useful citizen of Brown wood in
1922. I fcol that I hae been on the;
retired list the past year however I
take this opportunity to extend not
only to those who. cast their vote for
nic but to each and every ciflzen of
Browuwood and Brown county who
has in any way given me their sup-
port my heartfelt thanks for. what
little I have dor. for Brownwopd and
Bro.vn coi:ntv. I am not fully satls-
fiet! with ny wrk. however as there
are nome otlier things that f would
like 10 have uecnmplished for Brown-
wood and which I think would have
been of untold benefit. Again thank-
ing jne and all for their kind appre-
ciation I also wish to thank: the
Brown v$nd newspapers for their loyal
.iupport. and the niee write-up they
'jave given me wishing for all that
tills good year of 1923 may bring
nany joys' and blessing.
Now in conclusion f wish to ask
yia.t3 jsin with me in a resolution
to. the. dffel that e wjll put forth
aur very M?st efforts to make this th
banno. year fcr Browawood In civic
imprecrnent. Oar opportunities are
greet so let each and every one lav
asiite ny little bickerings and jeal-
ousies rpll up our sleeve? and see
bow much we can accamplrsh for
B: own wood in 1923. So hero goes for
h bigger dud better Brownwood and
by the way d-?n't forget that w need
a pcrmatf-at water supply.
