THE SCHOOL OF SORROW.
sat in the school OF sorrow:
The Master teaching there;
But my eyes dim with weeping.
And my heart oppressed with care
And seeing His face divine.
SO full Of tender compassion
For weary hearts Ike mine
only thought of the burden.
The cross that before me lay
The clouds that hung thick above me.
Darkening the lignt or day.
SO / could not learn my lesson
And say Thy will be done,
And the Master came not near me.
And the lcadcn hour went on.
At last in despair | lifted
And saw the Muster Watching.
With a look of plying love
To the cross before me He pointed.
And thought heard Him say.
'AIy child. thou must take thy burden.
And learn thy task to-day.
"Not now may tell the reason:
IT'S enough for thee to know
That l. the Master. am teaching.
And appoint thee all thy woe
Then. kneeng, The cross lifted
For one gimps. OF that face divine
Had given mo strength to bear u.
And say. THY viii. not mine
And so learned my lesson.
His helping hand sustained me,
And wiped away the tears.
And ever the glorious sunlight
From the heavenly nome streamed down.
Where the school tasks ALI are ended
And the cross is exchanged for the crown.
President General If the r. S. s.: Being one OF

TIE CROSS.
"flest they who seek
While IN their youth.
With spirit meek.
The way of truth
To them the sacred Scriptures display
Christ as the only true and living way:
His precious blood Calvary given
To make them heirs Of endless bliss in Heaven.
And cen on earth the child OF God can trace
The glorious blc ssings OF his Saviours grace
For them he bore
His Fathers frown:
For them he
The ihorny crown
Nailed TO the Cross.
Endured It's pain.
That Ills fe's loss
Might be their gain.
Then haste to choose
That better part.
Nor cen dare refuse
The Lord thy heart.
Lest He declare
Il know you not"
And deep despair
Should De your lot.
Nov look TO Jesus who on Calvary died
And trust on Him who there crucihed."
Yours truly. Mrs. LYDIA MoRIlS
