'sOur New Volume.
"Volume X is finished and closed. Its
contents, though dictated with an eve
single to the betterment of mankind
and the material development of this
section. are not what we could have de-
sired for its record for time and for
eternity, for in looking back over
the now filled pages we find
SO many imperfections and short
comings that we feel most
keenly the biting blasts of the coolest
winter of detection and disappointment
Yes, we feel disappointed, for in turn
ing over the fifty-two pages we find
blurs and blots and blemishes. We see
Where we failed to reach the high mark
OF our noble calling and God
the stars. but only reached the
trehy. We longed to bathe the
hOnest-plumaged pinions of Hottest ell
deavor amid the twinkling corruscations
OF the siderial considerations of aims
fulfilled as they stood out full-blossomed
with the rich blaze of their own eternity
OF splendor and of glory: but we only
found the titful flicker of those phoS-
phorescent gleamings as seen in the
Dogs and swamps of failure and short
comings. But be the past year as it
may, we open today new volume and
begin again the record of twelve months
more. And in the future, as in the
past, we will still strive to make life
know our own heart, one of our highest
aims in life is to paint earth
in its rosiest tintings of lowell
ness and to give to existence
its sweetest and happiest caroings.
And If we can go to one poor mortal
who is standing upon the desoIate and
sand-wrapped shores of some cold, bleak
Norway of misfortune and can give him
one little flower of cheer. whose odor
OF comfort will wean his thoughts
from their dismal surroundings
and bear them away to those
sun-nurSed tropics where flowers in
fadeless beauty bloom and feed all
passing zephyrs with perfume from
their bOsOms, then we will feel that we
are in a very small degree paying trlb-
ute for and showing our appreciation
for the rich and precious blessings Civ

gelic woman. the beauty of flowers, the
music of birds, the murmur of cascades,

other charms which make the earth SO
beautiful and attractive"
