| Twill lifes labor tighten, cheer carths pilgrim
way.
| Sing song O. sunshine,
Though today is drear,
Rainbows arch the heavens
When clouds disappear;
Sing song o. sunshine to the hearts you love
| Harmonies of heaven fir m the heights above.
| "Sing song o. sunshine
To the world that needs
Just such inspiration
| For its daily deeds;
Sing song o. sunshine as you work or wait
Make the moments merry while you make them
great.
Sing song O. sunshine,
Live life of cheer.
Smile instead of frowning,
Never fret or fear
Do your duty gaily, cast your cares aside
There is sunshine somewhere-choose lifes
sunny side"

When Mrs. Alden was in Los Angeles
in May she visited a juvenile Sunshine
Band, and named it the Golden Corner
branch. Here is page of its first
report:
'Our first work was to send flowers
and fruit to the sick, taking loving mes
sages to "shut-in" friends. We made
little articles to sell, scrap books, ETC.
so that by Christmas we had So, besides
books, toys and some clothing for poor
children. We gave one old lady a nice
| Christmas dinner and groceries to last
month. Sent dolls to three children
| who never had one, and two baskets of
food to two families where there was
illness. We realized SO from hand
painted gifts made and sold. In vaca-
ton, we sent a family of seven to the
beach for the day. We had an enter
tainment and cleared 81 toward sup
porting bed at Bethlehem hospital"
There are SO children on the roll, 35 of
whom are active members.

| SUNSHINE IN THE SCHOOL ROOM.
During these short, dark, wintry days
when clouds and fog lower in such
gloomy persistence, dear old Sol is an
utter stranger. Cherries, indeed, is the
lot of the teacher who counts among her
charges no little sunshine makers. But
was there ever teacher so unfortunate?
Are not the bright little beams there, if
we only have the spirit to discover them?
| Everyone knows how welcome is even a
ray of sunlight which has found its way
through some chink or crevice into a
gloomy, dismal room or building 1t
seems for time to transform the char
acter of the place, and give it beauty
and cheer. Just so does bright, smil-
