The -6nnuai Greeting.

"A Happy New Year to you!" This
is the greeting which will be heard
on every side as we cross the thres.
hold of the new year. 1t has become
a custom to repeat 1t. In many cases
1t has little meaning. and Is nothing
more than an empty compliment or an
idle wish. How much do you mean by
It? 1t is very easy to repeat the form
ula. 1t is n very simple matter to buy
a New Years card and enclose 1t in
an envelope. But when you send this
greeting. or speak II. do you regard
1t as n pledge or promise that you will
do nothing TO make the recipient OF
1t unhappy. and that you will do all
in your power to relieve his anxieties
and bring gladness to his heart?-
