Annie r. hfichener.

Into the centuries, dark and dim
The Old Year passes away;
The New Year comes TO US, neat and trim,
Smiling and blthe and gay
The Old Year marches, bowed and gray
Burdened with sorrow and care;
The New Year enters the race today
With face and form both fair
The Old Year knows our weakness, our
strength,
But he passes, no longer fair;
The New Year comes to us az length,
And with manner debonair
The Old Year treads with solemn mcin
In faith and midnight prayer;
As he enters the dark unseen
The bells ring out on the air.
The New Year acts like little child
With whistles, and horns and drums,
Dancing and prancng about the while,
Into our lives he comes.
He comes IN hope that is bonn Of youth,
He comes to bless the old
He comes In honor, love and truth
And his own fair share of gold
