A SONG OF THE NEW YEAR.

| bring a volume white,
With mystic uncut leaves,
Wherein each man may write
The creed which he believes.
The Future may unfold
Its pages, one by one;
But in Her hand must hold
The Book, till all is done
The deeds each one may do
Shall here leave their impress
For DEEDS are ever true
The hearts faith to confess.
Each triumph to the light,
Each action grand and pure,
Written III lines Of light,
Forever shall endure
While deeds of guilt and shame,
With blacklist letters traced
Against the doer's name
Shall never be effaced
And when my book is done,
And by the Past is bound
The works of every one
Within it.shall be found.
Then, by the Makers hand,
The volume shall be sealed,
Until at His command,
All things shall be revealed!

the cooperation of our citizens, in being
vaccinated and revaccinated in addition
to the cheerful compliance with the reg

continue to spread. The difficulties sur
rounding us in the exercise of the prop

all the official and moral courage that
we can summon to the discharge of our
