. We must say farewell to the yea,
1912, although it has brought happines!
! to some of US, yet to many it brough
sorrows and disappOintments therefore
let US approach the New Year in a spirit
of love and thankfulness and let US look
forward to 1918 with hope and confident
expectation. Providence has designed
that the United States shall be a
great nation and a light to all that sit
IN darkness. Let us each in our modest
corner do our part to eXalt our country
by the practice of personal and civic
righteousness.
New Years Eve has surely past the
old year goes; so let it be, To Nineteen
Twelve we bid goOd-by ! Welcome New
