To You, Ny Friends!
By JOHN A. CLUNEY

I'm not much good at writin' cards, Or letters, either, for that matter; No doubt it is the thing to do; At Christmas time, so that the chatter, Of friendly greeting all year round, May crystalize 8 bit and cheer, War-burdened humans everywhere, With happy moments to those held dear; For your many kindnesses this past twelve months, I'm ever grateful and wish a wealth, Of happiness continuous to you and yours;
 And most of all, Long Life, Good Health!
