From the Omaha Daily Bee, January 1, 1915. By S. E. Kiser.
A year is gone forever,
But out beyond us lies
A year for brave endeavor
And splendid enterprise
Where honors are awaiting
The worthy and the wise.
There shall be love and mating,
And truth shall still be good;
There shall be less of hating
And more of Brotherhood,
And right shall be more clearly
And fairly understood.
The new year shall not merely
Bring added age to those
Who value virtue dearly
And strive as Vice’s foes,
But Justice shall more nearly
Yield honest men repose.
