Getting old, isn't it ; Hut some thin^ts "improve with age," it is said. We trust it may be so in this case. We can not malie any great promises as to the future, but we expect not only to do all in our power to maintain the pace already attained, but hope to make even a better record during 15102. With the hearty support of so many sympa- thetic readers, and with a deteruiinatiou to keep the American Bee Journal in the front rank, we look forward with high hopes to the New Year, and trust that it may bring richest blessings to all, whether readers of these pages or not. ?*? E-xpressions of Appreciation of the American Bee Journal have been so abundant and hearty during the past tew weeks, that we may be pardoned for taking a little space to thank most sincerely those who—whether renewing their subscriptions or requesting a discontinuance—have written us so kindly and so graciously. Many people think that the world at large is often cold and unfeeling, but we are glad to know that "the world of bee-people" is seldom other than appreciative of honest effort and devoted toil. And to receive so many tokens of such enthusiastic esteem for the American Bee Journal is a source of great encouragement to those who plan and work to make its weekly visits a help and a bless- ing to all who read it. So we desire to take this opportunity to thauk most cordially all who have helped, in whatever way, to bring joy and gladness to this office, and to assure them that the ex- pressions of appreciation, as well as the more substantial things that more often accom- panied them, are greatly prized, and will aid in lightening the labors, as well as the hearts, of all whose united effort creates weekly the old American Bee Journal.
