NEW YEAR’S fcVft
Alone. Without are winter and the
AvorUI, but, this one .niglit of all.tlie
year, is given to the past, the counting
.of,the wealth of memories of the tlay«
gone by.
Book shall lie cloaed, i>eni l> be un

dilckory log*, red gleaming on the
hearth, the pipe of .fHie Virginia clay,
lllled with fair weed of ohl Mecklen
ihurg, are solaces and friend* enough
dor this vigil with the dead, storied
■years. *
Jn arm chair,ease we sit in silence of
«pee,ch, the dock up ui the mantle,
adilng the footfalls of the /.econds, the
strikings of the limir*, while from the
|«Uy of fire light come *nft voice*, as if
air and dew and rain drop prisoned in
the wood in the Springtime of leaf aa I
growth, released by the alchemy of
heat are whispering their old new hap
piness of freedom.
And memory, swift winged a*
thought, goes back to its first dawning
as straight and sure as the carrier dove
speed* return to the cote where the pa
rent Love taught its first flight, How
ftJir that morning, how far away and
£et now so near. As if after the bvp-
glstn of the night Atie gv.den glory of
Ahe sunshine tilled the vision to its far
^inEizon, the air was burdened with the
-sweetness of the bursting rose*, the
woodlands echoed with the song*

And there were loved one* wjtJi u*

Who walked with us aod lieliTduJ'
Jimds sud helped us triumph uver
uhildish troubles, and told J* of the

that should hide the sunlight from our
•[ighleuad eyes, of the passing of the

/rults to a*hes on We lips and ro bu-

■/•f the hidiivg of tlie serpents by tlie
irfeasant streams and'tlie growing of

the thistle that would be it: Ah*
wasted garden of the roses. ~ *
And nil too soon tliey grew aged
With the burdens of The weary yeais
amrtlt* gray dust of travel fell upon
Aheai jfnd the vrdee from tlie oilier
whore called them and they went away
tt .and left us alone, save for the memory
of the time they were our guide* and
.guard*.
An I as the strange way broaden* and
■jv3 follow the inexorable law that
.drives kbe journey onward, and new
driends come and give us the comfort
w>f their presence, the companionship
snf kindred souls and help to heal the
wounds and lift our sorrow^hat we
