HAPPY NEW YEAR, men and
II womenl
Happy New Year, girls and boysl
Let me wish you all sincerely
Twelve months trimming full Of
joys.
May new hopes and aspirations
Stir within your hearts today,
Soaring last years disappointments
From your memories away.
Turn around and face the sunshine
With it's constant warmth and
cheer,
Firm resolving you will seek it
Every day throughout the year.
Clouds which darken your horizon,
While you're gazing toward the
light.
Are collections of thin vapor
Which will soon drift out Of sight
Let unselflsh love for others
Prompt you oft to noble deeds;
Flowers blooming by the roadside
Are more beautiful than weeds.
Through LIES mazes we all wander,
Many stumble as though blind,
SO helping hand be often
Stretching forth to lift mankind.
May this New Year be much better
Than the other years you've passed;
Let it be strong foundation,
Built to hold your future fast.
Use enough good bricks and mortar
So your edifice won't snake
Should the earth begin to tremble
With war or giant quake.

Lord and His saints. The introduce
ton of that Reign Of Righteousness
Is portrayed, marked by wonderful
events connected with our Lords Sec
ond Advent-the glorifcation of the
Church, the binding of Satan. the
blessing of the world, etc. One would
suppose that, even with no knowledge
Of the symbols Of Revelation, no think
ing Christian would have difficulty in
realizing that the book foretells trou-
BILE for the Church throughout the
Gospel Age and the triumphant Mil
lennial Reign at its close.
Sayings "Faithful and" True.
Having pictured the Restitution work
to its contamination. the Revelation
changes. Verse Of today's Study as
sures us that these wonderful prom
Uses are faithful and true. In Verse 7
the Master speaks to all of His Church
who have the hearing ear. The init
nation seems to be that none can I'M
derstand this book of symbols until it's
seals are loosed; and that when it's
Second Advent will be at hand.
Verse 8 bears out this thought. st.
John represents those favored men,
bers Of the Church living in the end
Of this Age and privileged to witness
what he saw in symbol. Amongst these
there might be disposition to honor
too highly the one used Of the Lord
to communicate the light now due.
Verse Q sets forth the proprieties Of
the case, God alone should be wor-
SHIPPED. He is the Author Of the great
Plan Of salvation, and will be the Fin
Usher of it. This Plan Is brought to
our attention now by the Father be-
cause the due time has come for His
people to understand His purposes.
Verse 10 continues this thought.
