For twenty-four hours the snow has been falling and the wind has been drifting it in compact masses on the front porch and on the walks about the house. Though the hour is midafternoon only, already we have thrice wielded the shovel in a vain effort to clear the paths for the few pedestrians bold enough to use them. Unless we weary in our Christian-like conduct, our Trojan labors will be repeated at least twice more before bed-time. In the intervals between these periods of labor our thoughts involuntarily have gone out to our friends, to those friendly men and women whom the years have brought us and whom the lengthening days of our lives draw more intimately to us. And the question comes up for an answer: Shall we arrange, as in the years agone, for a renewal of those pleasant gatherings around the fireplace and beneath the reading lamp?
