The following IS an
excerpt from an editorial'
of December 31, 1965 in
the. now extinct Ottawa
'Journal;
"A fine thing it is to.
welcome the New Year
with flowing bowland
Auld Lang Syne, but fine,
lan, for those of other
tastes to greet • the
stranger gently as did the
poet Dinah Craik:'
Who comes dancing
over the snow,
His soft little feet all
bare and rosy?
Open the door, though
the wild winds blow,
Take the child in and
make him cozy,
Take 'him In and -hold
him dear,
Be is the wonderful,
glad New Year'.
This is the night when
youth is regained, when
there is intention of
generosity, and good
works in the months to
come, when there is a
new beginning."
1965 or 1980 the hopes
and dreams for 1981
remain the same.
