Once Again
we greet the New
Year in the traditional manner—with pealing bells,
with fun and gaiety, laughter and music.
Despite his ingenuity, man still persists in "watch­
ing the old year out and greeting the new year" in
almost the identical manner of ,his forefathers.
«
In that same identical manner, we extend our
traditional New Year's greeting to you:
Maw gleams of hope, fresh stream s of cour-
« 3 ° / come w ith the d aw n in g of the N ew
Year.
V/e cherish the thought
ot the fine associcrtions
that have been ours for
m any y e a rs past, a n d
take this means of ex­
pressing our deep appre­
ciation of your valued
friendship.

AND PROSPERITY BE YOURS TODAY AND
