The Netherlands Carillon was a gift from the people of the Netherlands to the people of the United States in 1954. During her visit to the United States in 1952, Queen Juliana presented a small silver bell to President Truman, saying,
"To achieve real harmony, justice should be done also to the small and tiny voices, which are not supported by the might of their weight. Mankind could learn from this. So many voices in our troubled world are still unheard. Let that be an incentive for all of us when we hear the bells ringing."The greeting inside is "Season's greetings and all good wishes for the new year" or you can choose one of
several other greetings (pdf 329k), to make the card just right for you.
