For the chrism of joy. the amounting of

For loves proud avowals, and crowning Of

And for its bestowals that lips have not

For daily providing, for blessings still new,
For children's blithe voices, for friends

For hopes Thou hast tended, Our Father,

For forces made captive for strength or

For greatening vision and truth seen afar,
For thoughts that more eager and reverent

For each mans devotion to all mems real

For ministries wisdom itself multiplies-
The heart of Thy Christ in mems ques-

For harvests that whitened in field or on

Seed in the herbs bosom, and root in the

For what Thou hast given that yet none

The spirit more steady, the rectified aim;
The trust need has nurtured, the pity it

The petty denials Thy purpose that sped;
For gIimpses of Thee that the soul have

Child Ptaniste to be Heard in Boulder on

Paloma Schramm, the wonderful little
composer and pianoist and her year
old sister. Carla, are to appear at the
Presbyterian church in very charming
concert program on Friday evening, jan
uary 6. Their playing at the home OF
Mrs. Rowe recently has caused them to
be spoken of very often by the music
lovers OF Boulder who will be delighted
to learn that their manager, Mr.. Par
lue,ze. has arranged for their appearance
here. Boulder is certainly fortunate in
having a chance to hear these children
Of 7 md 10 years of whom SO much has
recently been said by the Denver papers
PAloma has created sensation wherever
she has been before the public, as not
not only her playing. but her compost
tions, of which she has written nearly
thirty, entitle her to rank with Mozart,
who was not more promising at SINH
lar age.
The following FROM the Herald, Of
San Jose. California. April 80 last. shows
what an impression she made in the
west:
"rhe artist, pretty little doll like girl.
in shrimp piak and lace, looking rather
seven or eight than nine years of age,
played her numbers in an easy natural
|manner-played for more than an hour
and half, with only two or three re.
spites of not more than Ave minutes each.
Imagine the little tot filing the entire
programme of fifteen numbers! Why it
would puzzle an old stager to do it ac-
ceptablv, and yet she played, as she
would have made mud pies, or sewed
doll clothes-heartily, una6ectedly and
with her whole soul-plaved as If the
spirit of song stood beside her and
guided her tiny hands over the KEY board.
