Truly, "the day draweth to an
end" as we were appropriately told
from one OF our pulpits last Sabbath,
and the time draws near for the New
Year resolutions. There is possibly
nothing lost in making resolutions,
(unless, alas, 1t be the resolutions
themselves,) for the habit Is good
one, and we grow stronger by the
use Of 1t. Let us remember, also,
that there are Others" and that the
unselfish, busy life is the happy life.
A prosperous and happy New Year
