A NEW YEAR’S POEM.
(By Whittier.)
) know not what the future hath
Of marvel or surprise.
Assured alone that life and death
His mercy underlies.
And so beside the filent sea
I wait the mufTled oar.
No harm from him can come to me
On ocean or on shore.
1 know not where his islands lift
Their fronded palms in air;
T only know I cannot drift
Beyond his love and care.
WHAT THE NEW YEAR
SHOULD MEAN TO YOU
It does not seem a very long time
ago that we were talking about the
coming of a new year, with its neces-
sity for the balancing of all accounts,
that we might learn just how we stood
with regard to the profits and losses
of the twelve months that ware about
to be filed away in the archives of
life as ancient history. And now that
that “new” year, too, has gone we are
face to face with another New Year’s
day—face to face with the same old
problems.
To many of us the year that has
passed has not been particularly
pleasant. To some of us, in fact, it
may have brought so many frustrated
hopes, so many disapointments, that 1
we are more than usually glad to bid
It godspeed that we may hall with joy
the advent of a new and, as we fondly
hope, a better opportunity. Yet, as a
matter of fact, if we stop for a mo
ment to look back over the twelve
months that are now drawing to a
dose, there are but few of us who
will not find that the old year has
been a pretty good year after all.
