A very acceptable message to send
with your card to friend on New
Years morning is the following senti
ment:
Now what is here?
A word OF cheer
To herald In another year.
May all its days be free of blame
A little nober than your aim.
May all its labors be contest
A little better than your best
And all the joys within its scope
little brighter than your hope
And may each year be found when past
A little dearer than the last.
AS a pastime distribute telegram
