FAMILY REUNION

\ Merry Christmas at Home Of Free
man Kilborn In otisco.
A very happy Christmas day was spent
at the home of Freeman Kilborn Sr. OF
Otisco, when his two children, five grand
children and eight great grandchildren
came home to spend the day with grand
father, as has been the custom for good
many years.
The granddaughter who has lived with
the grandfather for several years had pre-
pared a sumptuous and dainty dinner to
which twenty two people did ample justice
after which came part of the program that
the little folks had looked anxiously for
ward to the unloading of the Christmas
tree.
The children had decorated the tree
very prettily with string pop corn and pap
er chains, and whenthe presents had been
distributed it was found no one had been
forgotten. 1t was regretted very much that
some of the grandchildren had been de-
tanned at home on account of illness or the
long distance which they would have to
come.
Although the grandfather IS over eighty
years old he seemed to join in the pleas
ures of the young people and we hope he
may live to see many returns of the Happy
Christmas Tide

New Years. 1905.
BY F. A. BUSH.

There S a solemn step.
There's a bated breath.
On every hand today;
For the good old year,
With its joy and cheer,
Is passing now away.
The hours pass by,
The moments fly.
And swiftly speeds the end;
And we stand around.
With grief profound,
At the death of such a friend.
But its memories dear,
We will cherish here,
The year so grand and good,
Though theirs many a one
Beneath the sun
Who would curse it if they could.
But we drop a tear
For the dying year,
For it was friend so true:
There we're joys so rare,
And but little of care
In the year now fading from view.
But we turn from the bier
With a hearty cheer
For the new born Nineteen Six.
May the youngster brave
From the old years grave,
Ne'er show US any tricks.
Away with the old,
Twas pure as gold,
We welcome the new born here.
May pleasures rare,
And naught of care,
Be ours for the whole New Year.
