For the fi/th time the
•Cosmopolitan comes up as
bright as ovei and greets its
readers with the compliments
,of the season. It has made,
eincc the last greeting, u hot
campaign, and of courso its
usual share of enemies. It has
¡had its own heart burnings
and animosities, but now, on
the anniversary of the birth
of He who camo on earth to
preach peace and good will
to all mankind, it wipes from
¿ta memory thfi animosities
j)f the past and would begin
tho new year at peace with all
Can not everyone do likewise,
Wipe from their memories tho
little bickerings of the past,
and let our whole people
/stand together, sfroplder to
shoulder, determined to work
for the good of our section,
and to make the next coming
fif the Star of Bethleham shine
over a happy, contented,
/united and prosperous people?
