Hails New Year And Reviews 195 (The following verses, ably re-viewing 1949 and welcoming 1950, were contributed by anonymous poets from Sutherland.) Hail and farewall to '49 'Twas good while he tarried, no doubt. Let's total up his noble deeds, Ere we brashly usher him out. He started out midst wind and snow Which quickly began to pile, And hemmed us in with our kith and kin To live in pioneer style. As on he trod with many a blast And we all, with hope and fear, Looked skyward for a little lull, That we felt we'd not get that year. But soon it came, and the Bonne- - ville mud We traveled with slips and skids. We felt with despair that the dear good Lord Had turned the weather over to his kids. Then summer dawned. The sun beat down. It filled us with thanksgiving And set us scurrying on our way To earn our daily living. In economics, forty nine, Calmed our each new gripe. He smiled benignly on our crops And made the hayseed ripe. The men bought cows and sheep and cars, The women, furs and lockets. And all that jingling you can hear Is money in our pockets. Old '49 he wasn't so bad In fact he was rather good. He lavished, squandered, favored, squelched, As a proper old year should. So come on 1950 There's nothing new to do, We've weathered 1949 We'll take what you've got too. We greet you with hearts aflame, We seek to know you well. You'll give us glimpses into heav-en, You'll give us tastes of hell. Sometimes we'll feel downhearted Yet sometimes we'll be nifty. Out with the old! In with the new! Hail to Nineteen fifty- - Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Black and three sons returned home last Thursday from a holiday trip- in California. They visited in Long Beach, Los Angeles, Culver City and Ontario with friends and and in Santa Monica with their daughter and family, Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Edwards and two sons On New Year's they had their first view of the Rose Parade and mar-veled at the 72 beautiful floats and 21 bands.
