THE CHiLO'S HEART.

The heart Of a child,
Like the heart of a flower,
Has smile for the sun
And a tear for the shower.
Oh, innocent hours,
With wonder beguiledi
Oh, heart like a flowers
In the heart of a childl
The heart Of child,
Like the heart of a bird,
With raptures of music
Is flooded and stirred.
Oh, songs without wordsl
Oh, melodies wildl
Oh, heart like birds
In the heart of a childl
The heart of a child,
Like the heart of the spring,
Is full of the hope
OF what summer shall bring.
Oh, glory of things
In a world undefiledi
Oh, heart like the springs
In the heart Of a childl

The Hon Eli James Morris received
the sacrament of baptism. at bis home,

brought up Baptist, and though for
many years personally interested in, and
liberal supporter of st Johns

Gently ssought to take upon himself the
sign OF the covenant relation. He had
spoken to his pastor about the matter
several times within the last year or so.
and expressed his determination to go to
the chnreh and publicly make the vows
OF his faith but the state of his bodily
health has long been such that he did not
feel equal to the effort it would rTquire,
and so, being still feeble and suffering,
he was persuaded by Mr. Wright to make,
without delay, the outward sign of his
profession, which is 1.-THE answer of a
good conscience toward God, by the res =
direction OF Jesus Christ"
Mr. Morris was born at the old home
stead in Zoar district, where he still re-
sides, December 20, 1921, and is there

was Jane Elizabeth Chambers, sister
OF frederick Chambers, was a communi-
cant Of st Johns church, and active in
all the interests of the parish. She died
October 4, 1891.
MIR Morris is now, almost, If not quite
the last OF his generation left in the COM
munity in which he has always lived.

the dainty good spread before them. The
valentines sold like hot cakes. That is a
proverbial expression for things selling
fast, and yet we doubt very much IL hot
cakes ever sold faster. A duplicate of
the order for valentines last year, when
the sale rather dragged, was made; and
yet an hour had scarcely gone by before
the table which held the pretty love-
tokens was cleared. Miss Jessie M. Tay-
lor presided at the valentine table. Miss
Mabel E. Morris served the candy sweets,
snd Miss Mabel L. Taylor took the money
for the cakes and doughnuts. It was
wonderful how the children came. An
invitation OF diminutive dimensions,
placed in Uncle Sans mail. bag, had
proved an attraction to each child, and
brought him or ner in haste to the focus
OF interest, the place where the valen-
tines were sold. The supper was served
from to o'clock, and the long tables
were several times filled with persons and
emptied of eatahles. While credit is to
be awarded to many who helped TO
score a great success, the leading place
in effort and planning was easily taken
by Mrs Otis W. Barker, who labored un-
ceasingly for the result that was achiev-
ed. Ii so pleasant day and so large

WORDS or WISDOM.

Every individual has the frat right
% his individuality. Few Persons
would dispute this, aud yet few act ~
though they believed il. They talk
about moulding the character Of tho
,hild, which means to press him into
,omo man made forp, and 30 force
upon him fictitious individuality.
But to give child his frat right is to
aid him to develop, TO grow.
Salvation is not tho petty conccp.
ton OF personal safety from some far
of doom. IL is the saving OF the
whole man; IL IL tho domination OF
the higher nature over the lower; 10 is
the education Of tho spiritual, the
development, the evolution of the God
in us, that divine spark in all hu-
manity that can never be wholly ex-
linguished.
Lifo strikes many an UNDECIDED,
prophetic little noto. A word. trivial
happening. gives hint, like theme in
music, Of something that il 10 bs
more or less recurrent all the way
along.
No one can bring comfort who has
not known something of sorrow. This,
then, ia one OF the divine usos Of sor-
row, that il equips US TO help others.
Every life touches many other lives.
Let us move more softly through tho
world lest our touch be harsh aud
hurtful touch.
10Doliber ate much before doing or
saying anything, .for you have not the
power OF recalling what has been said
or done.
II is hard matter 10 discern rightly
whether a good or an evil spirit docs
provoke thee 10 covet this or that.
A delicate man at work accom-.
plishes more than a giant in idleness.
Pat your strength in your fight in
stead OF in your challenge.
