And seek for strength and wisdom from above;
With these to help thee. never be afraid.

And strength will come to thee from day to day.

The moon wanes pale in the sky
And the stars all blink for morn;
The old year is to die.
And the new year to be born,
We have passed through the vale of tears.

We have shared our grief and song;
And we've shared them all with our old friend.
Our true friends. our few friends,
And we'll drain anew to our old friends.

It is the result of a suit in which
it was shown that Sears, Roebuck &
Co, had fraudulently listed gasoline
engines in their catalogue at a high
CT power than the engines possessed.
In the frs trial, Judgment was
given against Sears, Roebuck & Co,
for $f0,0 600. An appeal was taken,
and a new trial granted on technical
grounds, but the second award vas
even higher tLan the first-$13, $50.
1t was shown in court hat Sears,

Book as a 8 horse power engine, one
of AZ horse power as a . horse
power engine, one of 5 horse power
as 6 horse power engine, and 81 on
