to bondholders to come into the reorgaDl-

even with the penalty which it is the inten-

not to extend this privilege to minority
bondholders for any length of time.

STARS ARE IN THE SKY ALL DAY,
The stars Ere in the sky all day.

The stars ERE in the sky all day.
Each linked coil of Milky Way
And every planet that we know
Behind the sun is circling slow.
They sweep, they climb with stately tread,
Venus the fair, and Mars the red,
Saturn enGirdled with clear light
Or Jupiter with moons Of white.
Each knows his path and keeps due tryst.
Not even the smallest star is missed
From those wide fields of deeper Sky
Which gie2n and flash mysteriouSly,
As if Gods outstretched fingers must
Have sown them thick with diamond dust,
There are they all day long, but we.
Sun blinded, have no eyes to see.
The stars are in the sky all day,
But when the sun has gone away,
And lowering shadows cool the west,
And call the sleepy birds to rest,
And heaven grows softly dim and dun
Into its darkness one by one
Steal forth those starry shapes all fair
We say steal forth, but they were there.
Where all day long, unseen, unguessed,
Climbing the sky from east to west.
The angels saw them where they hid,
And so perhaps the eagles did,
For they can face the sharp sun ray
Nor wink nor heed to look away.
But we, blind mortals, gazed from far
And did not see a single star.
l wonder if the world l., full
OF other secrets beautiful,
AS little guessed, as hard to see,
AS this sweet starry mystery.
Do angels veil themselves in space
And make the sun their hiding place?
Do white wings flash as spirits go
On heavenly errands to and fro,
While we, down looking, never guess
How near our lives they crowd and press?
If so, al life's set we may see
Into the dusk steal noiselessly
Sweet faces that we used to know,
Dear eyes like stars that slowly glow,
Dear hands stretched out to point the way
And deem the night more fair than day.
