so lachrymal. That grim looking old man
with his hour-glass and scythe cannot make
us cry this year. We know him better now
than we did year ago,-in fact we've made
friends with him. What if he did rob us
of our youth lie has given US richer, deeper
blessings than youth ever knew! To-day
is the best day earth ever had. and we have
ceased looking mournfully into the past,

merry, merry Chris tmas, and we hope
