Send Out the Sunshine

Send Out the Sunshine
Send out the Sunshine, If only a ray
There may be some one in sadness to-day;
Some one awaiting the word of good
cheer,
That in the deep sorrow the Master is
near.
Send out the Sunshine to those who are
ILL.,
Dark little corners its brightness may fill
Send the kind message to those in des-
pair.
And help by your Sunshine some burden
TO bear.
Send out the Sunshine to young and to
old,
Never ray from the needy withhold;
Pass on the kindness in thought, word and
1t may to the Saviour some weary soul
lead.
Send out the Sunshine to one and to all,
Knowing the Father who notes the bird s
fall
Counts every act in his name as we'll done,
And stores them away until lifes victory
won.
Send out the Sunshine. send out the Sun
shine,
Send out the bright little ray;
Send out the Sunshine, send out the Sun
shine,
Send out the Sunshine to-day.
New York Tribune.
Emile Pickhart of Lexington, Mass.
writes to the New York Sun as follows:
Your editorial quotations from the most
depres ing essay by DR.. Harry Campbell
in the London Lancet show that he re-
CARDS the race as fast going t. the dogs
because young people think more OF their
own happiness than Elat of posterity, and
continue to marry and be given in marri-
age regardless of their mental or physical
fitness.
Now as a matter of fact, the human
race as a whole, seems to be getting hap
pier and longer-lived all the time Cente-
narians are very common nowadays, and
even among the very poor there is re-
markable absence. in civilized countries
at least, of such loathsome diseases as in
ancient times decimated the population.
If we are to breed race of strang ami
mails merely, the only way to do would be
to initiate some aboriginal tribes who kill
ed off at birth those infants which seemed
TO lack the physical endoWments necessary
TO long life
Sexual love is a God-given prerogative,
and all human kind viii continue to exer-
as they are not forcibly restrained.
Moreover, the learned doctor seems to
forget that in the birth of an infant there
is involved a spiritual element, the divine
spark, which is absolutely pure and I'M
contaminated by physical condition. 1t is
this new element in each individual which
determines largely the later physical stat
US, and, usually entirely changes the
physical nature in the end.
Furthermore, the theory of heredsty is
at the present time largely discredited by
leading scientific men, and plain facts,
which have come under my personal OBJ
servation lead to the conclusion that he
redity is a bugaboo which has had its
day.
Then, again, speaking of happiness, 1t is
often ali merely relative. The more animal
o man is the less happy he is. He may
be contented, like the swine, well fed; but
happy, no! In the mysterious processes Of
natures alembc the mutations of physi-
cal and spiritual states are so surprising
that it cannot be with any degree of GER
tainty predicated that this or that infant
will be healthy, happy and wise, or the
contrary. If there is anything within the
realm of human life that should be left
to the overruling hand of Divine Provi
dence in its masterful guidance of the
world through a series Of astounding evo-
lutons, IL is this very question of the I'M
ion of man and woman and the procrea-
alton of their kind; and, as you happily
quote at the end of your editorial on
Worry"
We may be happy yet
You bet!
