THE NEW YEAR
It is New Year's Day to-day. In- wishing you the best for the Sea- son we hope you will be granted in a large measure the many things for which we all at the New Year so sanguinely wish.
What a wonderful sound "has New Year," It is so laden with promise, so fresh and untouched,
ficulties that are bound to beset our ways. Let us include in those shining hopes which we are all humanly making for the year 1934, a few thoughts for the others around us; it is only by the unani- mous pulling together of human beings, each in their own spheres, that there can ever be any relief from the conditions that have been smirching the beauty of the world.
