hopefuness proclaim the same truth as
the glori6ed landscape that now solaces
the eye. Life is not in children save by
reason OF those who have gone before.
Existence is, therefore, no mere toy to be
played with and thrown away, but
trust-fund, from the interest of which
we gain all the bliss and joys of life; but
from the principal of which we must
take nothing by reason of wrong-living,
or those who follow us may righteously
curse us for our selfshness.

This is not the place for discussion as
to whether death will finally be driven
from our sphere. That is too remote
contingency to be considered. On the
other. hand the present law, the one that
has control OF you and me, is that after a
certain time life will cease to energize us
and our conscious share in the worlds
doings come to an end. Because of the
agonizing fear OF death that darkened
my childhood days, am not unaware OF
the fierce longing in the strong and ener-
getic heart for life everlastingin the world
ever beautiful; | sympathize with it.
But that cannot be done. Then what
shall be done? Take another glance at
nature to emphasize what this feeble mind
would fain utter with compelling force.
Like produces like, with this limitation
that an individual tree or creature,
stronger or weaker than its fellows,
passes on a strengthened or weakened
heritage to those who follow. Outside
influences, good or bad, and the surren-
der of the individual to their power also
help to make or mar the prospects Of
that race of trees or creatures. There is
no imagination in this; but sober truth
Now our race also has its perpetual
spring, in the beauty and charm of child

Some Rambling Thoughts.
COPYRIGHTED by MEMO"

The ground beneath out feet is already
restless with the thrusting vigor of seeds,
whose my sterious and resistlcss power
is compelling the soil to give up its dead
to live again. Our every iootstep is
dogged with the .ireless tasks of earth
worms and insects, tunneling in all
directions that the soil compacted by the
winters storms may be in reach of the
life.impeling influences ofaira and warmth.
Invisible energies are crying aloud to the
valleys. to the creatures that hibernate
and to the birds that migrate, to insects
and to grubs. "Let there be lie!" and
there is life, so pervasive that though we
fly to the uttermost desert, it is there
though we bury ourselves in the deepest
mine, it is there.
