When the Worlds All New.

It is the same old world that we
greeted on New Years morning. But
somehow it looked so different. The
invisible dividing line between last
year and this has made possible
new angle Of vision. The grip of old
passions seems to have lost it's hold
and new purpose, partly old, partly
new, throbs for recognition. A gen"
tleness appears in faces thought to
be hard and cynical. Happiness
sparkles in the eyes of sad and lonely
folk. A sort of introduction is need
ed to oneself. For the dawn of the
new year makes possible a fresh at
tack on the age-weary problems.

instead of the good, and a new walk
down by-ways of human experience
where one may be good Samaritan
