The old year. hoary with the snows of age. exhausted with the labors of " life and tottering under it's weight of days. has passed away. Around the altar of many a rustic church or solemn cathedral and by many a peaceful tirtmhe gathered God's chili- ren to watch the old year oat and the New Year in. Peal upon peel comes the music from the various church spires, until an exultant chorus seems to fill the air and reverberate from the sky. ’Tis the chorus of welcome to the new-horn year, The passing year " full of solemn admonitione for it brings to our minds the rapid Bight of time. A day. a week, a month, a year-wut are they t They go by like shadows on a dial. Old Father Pime seems to stand like an archer With his quiver full of days and shoot them by us With the speed of swift‘ winged arrows so that " we spend our days like a tale that is told." As the great bell ot tune, swinging in the dome of Space. tolls away our years. and one after another they ring out upon the Iiir and float away into Eternity, let us be alert to every pass- ing opportunity. associating our minds with the title. the noble and the pure, so that the world may he the better for our having lived.

Those of us who are old enough to rem mber the, manner Xmas and New Year were kept in the days: of our youth will tlud quite a contrast in passing over titty years. The old fashioned feast con sisted not of fat turkey, goose. pudd- ing, fruit, cake, or any such refinery, but simply a big loaf made in the old fashioned bake oven with hot ashes and coals placed on the top lid. The loaf generally was from 10 to 12 in- ches deep and good bread at that. As for extras to make the least a little different from other days, the good mother prepared a good large some“ bannock on the old fashioned frying pan and for an extra good touch to the least made a few dozen small cakes. Then on the same pan she prepared and fried some fat pork. After which she called her good has band, sons and daughters to partake of the good feast prepared tor them. And perhaps there were some invited friends who came not in dandy cut- ters drawn by spirited horses in get y harness,. but in the ancient sled made of material taken hum the woods by the owner, who in general was his own mechanic. They were drawn by the good old oxen which were famili- " with all the turns and crooks on the highwav then travelled through woods, and not on macadamized roads " we have these Christmas and New Years' days of 1908.

The dear old father and mother (in many instances) who embraced the son and daughter at the last Christmas and New Year, have passed away to join the innumerable throng to par- take of the everlasting feast in the kingdom above. Again many a poor mother and father who had the plea- sure of having sons and daughters Earuking of the teast prepared at the eginning of the year and now have only as a reminder, like the Woman of old, the garments which they wore. The wheels of time have again rer. volved and brought us to the close ot another year. In reviewing the year that is now to be numbered with the past. it recalls to memory many of the events that have transpired since its infancy. It reminds us that another year has been added to the age roll of our pilgrimage. Our years are like the rolling tide, for step by step we have journeyed on till we have reached the topmost step in the ladder and only halted to give a view of the waving tides ot the ocean ot life, when we were forced to retrace our steps downwards till finally we reach the bottom step on the other side. Those who are only be inning to ascend this ladder and time just halt way up think it a long time till they reach the top, bat it they are spared, they will get there slow but sure and will descend far faster than thev ascended. Again the closing ot the old year and the beginning of the new year acts in a two-fold manner. To many a home this Xmas and New Year has brought glad tidings. tor the son or daughter away for years has arrived " the old home and the good old mother has killed the iatted turkey, while the father has prepared something else.
