A new broom sweeps clean.

1. A new broom sweeps clean.

2. Every thing that glitters is not gold
3. The race is not always to the swift
4. Better late than never.
5. A shut mouth makes a wise head.
6. As busy as a hen at a sack of oats
7. Great evils have small beginnings.
8. Every dog is a put before it hunts
9. It is never too late to mend.
