THE VANISHED YEAR

Once again year has vanished,
To the realm of bygones banished
Where the past years sleep in glory
Not forgotten-gone before
And the New Year comes to greet us,
On the wings Of Time to meet US,
And to tell the old, old story
Of the years that are no more,
In the wings of Time, swift flying,
Lies the Old Year signing, dying,
Borne to join the host that slumbers
On that distant unknown shore
Borne to join the countless legion,
That have crossed that mystic region,
And are counted with the numbers
In that land of NeVermore.
Once again the bells are ringing,
Tidihgs of the New Year bringing,
With the blythe and gladstone claagor
Of the bells that rang of yore,
And their glad and tuneful pealing,
Brighter fairer skies revealing,
Bids us Danish sorrow, anger,
Think of gladness yet in store.
Let us greet the New Year gladly
Though we miss the old one sadly
Let us hope for bright skies DER US,
Let our dreams be ever fair
Let us Danish care and sorrow,
Hope for gladness on the morrow
Let us build for days before us
Brighter castles in the air.

and bright-eyed Hebe give welcome and homage
to the newcomer, and salute the opening of his
reign with miTthful song and joyous laughter.
The festive celebration of the new year has been
salient feature in the social life of all civilized,
peoples ancient and modern and that character
istc persists in the strenuous life of today.
The time at which the year began varied
much among different nations. The Carthagn-
ians, Egyptians, Persians and other nations Of
antiquity began their year at the autumnal
equinox, New Years day falling on September
%, of modern reckoning which is also the be-
ginning of the Jewish civil year, The Greeks
chose December %, and afterward June %. Jan
uary l was first adopted by the Romans when
julius Caesar brought the civil year into close
harmony with the solar, in B. c. 46, but. for
many centuries, the example was not followed
by subsequent European nations. At one time
there were seven different dates for the begin
ming of the year among the Christian nations
and even successive popes, until comparatively
recent times scarcely ever adopted the same
chronology. Russia and the eastern empire Of
Constantine dated from September l. and the
Mohammedan year. being dependent on the
phases of the NOON had and has no fixed begin
ming. January became the accepted date of
the New Year among the Catholic nations Of
Europe in 1882, when Pope Gregory XIII intro
duced the style of reckoning. and corrected
the accumulated discrepancies between the Jul
fan computation and the actual solar, year by
striking ten days out of the almanac of that
year. BY 1900 this date in general use
throughout Europe, but it was not until 1852
that England and her American colonies
adopted it.
Ancient and modern civilized peoples while
differing to the day from which they reck-
oned the beginning of the civil year, have agreed
in distinguishing it by special festivities and re-
ligious observances. The Romans dedicated jan
uary to the oldest of their gods Janus of the
two faces one youthful and one aged-a symbol
of the wisdom of the god who knows the past

order their conduct on
New Years day that ev-
cry word and action

curry of the twelve
months of the coming
year. Kindly salutations
and presents Of figs,
dates and sweetmeats
were exchanged among
the people, holiday dress
was worn, and feasting
became universal. New
Year presents became
under the Caesars a
source of great personal
profit to the ruler, and
an onerous burden to
his subjects. The in

subjects, and, although she made re-
turn gifts, it is related that she took
good care to have the balance well
in her own favor.
The early fathers of the church
reprobated the immoral and supersti-
tious observances of the pagan festi-
fal, and directed that the Christian
year should be opened with a day
of fasting, prayer and humiliation.
The festal character of the day, how
