OF course, ne and his family were at
first delighted with the prospects Of such
great success, but as the time for leaving
drew near, the change lost its charm
and joy changed to sadness. AS 'the
goods were packed the wife found she
could not leave, and after the wagons
were loaded and all was in readiness 10

Man was designed to be a sociable
creature. In the youngest and most IN
nocent childhood craving for fellow
ship shows itself and he carries It even
into his second childhood.
Therefore, having been created with
this inclination, don't be a solitary
creature You ought to be a friend 70
everybody, even If everybody is not a
friend to you. We are all akin, and
God put US into His beautiful world for
such a short space OF time so we ought
70 do as many good acts toward our fell
low-creatures as we possibly can crowd
in. The feeling OF fellowship may be
classified under two headings. First, the
kind that we have toward any fellow
creature. Just because he is a human
being and was created and put into this
world for some purpose by our Father,
The second Is the kind that when we con-
verse with the person, II stirs in us the
highest delight in life because We feel
that he has a soul that is like unto our
own. and when one fnds such COM
rade one ought with high endeavor link
him unto his s0ul with hoops of Steel
and should ever be faithful. fruitful, and
loyal unto him. MARIE H. BOGDAHN.

There IS no greater stimulus TO right
living than that which comes from fellow
ship with one who IS striving 10 live
right. When persons who are honestly
striving after light and power get to-
gether and confer over their problems
in mutual love and confidence, each helps
the other and thereby gains for himself
what he would never have found alone

1t IS something sweet when the world
goes ill
To know you are faithful and love me
still:
To feel when the sunshine has left the
skies
That the light Is shining in your dear
eyes
Beautiful eyes. more dear 10 me
Than all the wealth Of the world could be
1t is something. dearest to feel YOU near
When life with its sorrows seems hard
TO bear;
To feel when falter the clasp divine Of
your
Tender and trusting hand in mine
Beautiful hand. more dear TO me
Than the tenderest thing on earth could
be.
Sometimes, dearest, the world goes
wrong,
For God gives grief with His gift Of song,
And poverty, too: but your love is more
To me than riches and golden store
Beautiful love. until death shall part.
IL Is mine. as you are my own sweet
heart-F. L S MARY l. REED.

Fellowship and acquaintance are syno-
nyms. We should. as Cotton saws, make
the most of the day by determining to
spend II on two sorts Of acquaintance

got and those from whom something may
be learned LAURA V. ALLEN.

Learn to be just, just through impartial

And what We cannot reach by statute,

Embrace that shining and courageous
virtue. Faith Hope is the boy. blind /
headlong, pleasant fellow, good to chase

lives on ignorance; open-eyed Faith is |
built upon knowledge of our life, Of the /

Of human resolutions. Hope looks for \
unqualified success. but Faith counts GER
