A POEM FOR THE NEW YEAR
You icon tnlk of rosolntioTs
As the host known cure far ills;
Bon’t talk about ReyerUtbe
Ain’t none ’round these Vtc Libs.
\
You can’t forget ye olden ways
Lotus dreams wilt not do;
There’s temptations waiting
Hence, there’s no place for you.
You think you’ll have a little rest
Let resolutions run ’stray;
But each (lav that jocseav
Finds you in the same way.
You think you’ll wait a Tittle while
Jus’ tp rest your t-iruA-soul;
Habit has no feelin ’ fot
A player in that role.
You dream in vein of reformation
You’ll reach the pinups o’ light;
No Lotus dreams will help there
Jus’ up and do what’s right.

has had and must have a chance

- ffjlln lining tills he will need nnrt
“use Ids fellows. No one ever suc
ceeded yet in being great or pros
perous as a hermit. We climb up
. upon each other. It takes ns all to
make and to keep civilization. A
man owes himself and his fortune
to society in a very large degree.

pay Ills debt, to the man next to
him. I.et this man pay his neigh

the bill shall have gone round the
circle and returned to the* man
who started ft on its round. This
man may return the hill ro his
pocket with the happy conscious
ness Hint ho has paid his debt and
also received wlmt was due him,
,an# that every other man in Hie
group has rnc -r-ne unr-mtniyn.
But If Hie first man had not stnrted

been no aueli results. He would
then have Illustrated Russia, In

so shall there be a true commun

Is a conundrum which usks why-
one should prefer a dollar bill to
