AHAPPY NEW YEAR.

Another Christmas has passed into
history, and an unprecedented number
OF instances of generosity have been
recorded. Even the soulless corpora
tons loosened up and gave literally to
their employees. In all this great coun.
try there was scarcely one peson who
went hungry, neglected or forgotten
last Wednesday. Extraordinary eff
forts were made to make the little
ones happy. In fact, but for the little
ones, the birthday of Him who said
."Let the little ones come unto me
and forbid them not, for of such is
the kingdom of Heaven would soon
go into inocuous desuetude. What
would Christmas be without the little
ones? God bless them! Before an
other issue of THE APPEAL the nres
ent year, with it's joys and it's sor
rows, will have ended, and another
year begun. What it will bring forth
time alone can show. The year Just
closed has been full of prosperity fol-

the year 1902 Will not fall behind the
one; just closed in its blessings. We
thank all our patrons for their pat
fonage in the past, and wish for al
