TO try TO take their shadows away and
let the sunshine in: let the sorrow home
pass; let the happy home come. We are
always having with something. Let IT be
right and use in the right way, so not "a
make enemies with any one but 10 be
friends, and keep friends ali thy life
Let rot our friendship be like the rose "a
sever,
But, like the evergreen, may It last for
ever.

Were there no God, still would thank
the source. though all unknown,
Wherein are born the joys OF men, the
gifts / call my own;
The heart impels the tongue 20 speak
since 70 my lot belong
A womans love. a sheaf Of grain. a llly
and a song.
The .avage beast the poison vine, tho
evil OF the earth.
know not II the good and bad were only
one al birth;
But all the world seems gracious when J
set against the wrong.
A woman's love. sheaf Of grain. a lily
and song.

Sweethearts come and sweethearts 90,
According 10 the weather,
But three there be as true as steel
And loyal all together
fell IN love. the first ] loved.
In fact. we loved each other;
In holiest Of sacred ties.
Ny own dear gentle mother.
SWeethearts come and Sweethearts go,
According 10 the season,
But I know one who changes not,
Who loves beyond all reason.
When frst 1 saw her face / found
(And only love discovers)
The sweetest wife that ever lived,
And she and arc lovers.
Sweethearts come and sweethearts 90,
According TO the notion.
But one there is whose little heart
Is deeper than the ocean.
And DER her little golden head
Gods angels surely hover.
The truest sweetheart in the world,
Ny own wee baby lover.
There's place in my heart for my old
true love,
For the mother who FIRST loved me.
And throne OF pure white FOR my
hearts delight.
For a queen OF my life is she.
And a wee little niche for the rosy
checked witch
Who Is dearer than lie can be;
I'm in love, I'm in love, and ever shall
be,
And I'm happy. so happy, with sweet
hearts three

Rest comes at length, though life be Ions
and dreary.
The day must dawn and darksome night
be past:
Faiths journeys end in welcome TO the
weary.
And Heaven. the hearts true home.
will come AT last. -Faber.

Oh. what is richer, better, more glori-
GUS than the bright sunrays that rent
clouds asunder
SD North Carolina avenue southeast.
Oh. that the world could see and un-
derstand how glorious It is 70 live in the
pure atmosphere Of optimism. only the
true optimist can believe that there is
compensation In life Tor every good deed,
a noble reward for all that endureth un-
iii the end. Be just. be honest. consider
the welfare Of your less fortunate fellow
being. and the bright sunlight OF pros
perity will shine along your pathway Of
life. Virtue has a hard time 20 sustain
itself in the face OF the enchanting
clutches OF sin. To be good requires
great sacrifice but in the end we shall
be fully compensated with the sublime
pleasure Of a clear conscience. When
the storms of trouble rise. when the
wind Of adversely howls, fellow-optimists
don't give up the ship. Just tighten the
sails Of optimism the harbor Of safety
is Just ahead. Adversely is often that
Of darkness which precedes the
OF the day OF success.

II. in Hfe's journey. we falter not in
our duty. doing all We can 70 asuage
grief and suffering for our fellow-man
we have the consciousness or doing right
which compensates for many sacrifices;
then, even with the spoken thanks. our
greatest compensation will he 10 hear the
Masters approval of-Wel done thou
good and faithful servant.
