New Year, I look today in your
eyes,
Our ways and our interests now
blend.
You may be a foe in disguise,

We cannot give pain and get
pleasure.
I give today good will and cheer,
And you must return it, New

keeping or giving away of liquors
in public places and imposes a
tax of $500 on clubs whose mem-
bers are allowed to keep drinks
of an intoxicating nature in their
