Once a year everyone should take an hour off and A baby year on the job, while his tired older brother, Es that a few months ago was, too, but a babe, takes his tired bones and aching joints to that dark limbo of for- gotten things where the dead years dwell. ; Would that all of us could renew our youth, our hopes, our charity to man, and our faith in the unseen as readily as do these baby years, who spring from the womb of cold December so ceaselessly. Ho, hum, and lack-a-day, how these years do skip and jump and play leap frog with each other. Why, it feels like yesterday when you fell neck deep in love with the postmaster’s daughter; you remember, it was on that bobsled ride of the Epworth League, and the stars were brighter than they have ever been since, and the snow was cleaner, and the sweep of the fresh, red blood thru your veins was epic. You were a young god, tho a bashful one, that night. That was just day before yesterday, and here you are Are you more kindly? Do you suppose there is at least one person, including your wife, who is happier today for having known you this last twelvemonth? Or have you spent your time trying to get the better of somebody; trying to rush around and find joy in the whirl; trying to be dressed up a bit better than ever before; crying for the moon, and hating everything you own?

It’s up to you whether, when this baby dies, it will be disillusioned, sinful, glad to sneak away and leave you to your cussedness, or whether it will go with best wishes, regretful at leaving an honest friend.
