Xmas has gone, to retur not until December next. Notwith standing the very cold weathei he holidays were enjoyed. I hop you enjoyed them, Mr Editor.

How man brave resolutions were made at ii beginning, but to be broken at ii ' en ling it was impossible to tei [ But we think this yearly resolve t do better and be better is somethin J of itself. This yearly turning over of a ne leaf, the vearlv determination t " grow out of any beyond self hi somethrg to do with the worl growing better, as we think it i gradually doing. Standing 011 th threshold of the new year we lool in'o the shadowy future and see our selves occupying dizzy heights o the ladder of civilization. For w dare to presume that with de term in ation we shall climb the hill of pre gresa with rapid gait, in the light 0 1 this wonderful twentieth centur; Let good fellowship bridge the seas whether they be of water, or of en mity, of unfriendliness, of spite, o malice or hate. Life is not wortl bickerings; it is not worth bitter ne.sjbut it is worth the whole sun of love, of forgiveness, of generosity Let us remember nothing the dea< year brought ns, save that whicl * "? 1 !iJ was goou ana conuoruioie, sua ?ju stouter hearts push on to greater anc grander heights, j Good wishes with a happy nev year to you, Mr Editor.
