1888, AND 1889.
Laden with its treasure of joys and sorrows, its successes and failures, its smiles and tears, its hopes and fears, its blessings and curses, the old year passed gently through the misty gate into the great and irrevocable Past.
Flushed with the brilliant glow of amber flame, the roseate morn of the new year bursts upon us in all the exhilarating freshness of beauteous youth. In the mighty cycle of time, what shall thy record be?
The most precious flower that blooms in the Elysian fields opportunity—thou bearest in thy fair hand to the world! Will men receive it and bless thy name, or will they reject it and curse thy memory? In the lives of men and in the life of the world, what shall the record of 1889 be?
Just what men and the world will make it.
