Out of the valley of the shadow of DEATH
And into the glorious light
OF the Home OF the SOUL our friends have
passed
To know neither sorrow nor night
For the Lamb is the light of that beautiful land
Whose glories no tongue can express;
The Father Himself wipes away every tear
No death, pain to distress.
How bravely and brightly their lights ever shone,
As each i'm her different sphere
Gathered for Him bright golden sheaves
To lay at His feet cover there"
How often word a sweet sunny smile
Brought cheer to some weary one!
All! sigh when l think Of our ''Heusehold's'
loss,
Yet whisper ''Thy win be done"
o. Christ, life what comfort doth
Thy resurrection give;
What joy to list to Thy gracious words,

Your hearts have been sOrely tried;
But your dear ones again you will clasp to

angelic choirs. Methinks l can hear the
angels weep as the Prince laid aside His
beautiful raiment and descended to the
manager tender infant among the beasts
and chose earthly SCOTS to heavenly
reclamation and a cattle pen to a
kings palace so uhat He might stop those
groans and redeem those fallen nations.
On the first glad Christmas night over
1900 years ago, He came to this earth =
lowly. helpless infant. and His, first
bed was i'm a manger. Heavenly angels
must have acted as His escort, for they
were the first to tell the glad tidings
that TO the world was born a Saviour
which is Christ. the Lord. And then
while lowly shepherds left their fiocks
and FASTENED to worship Him, the three
Wise Men i'm the East saw the star that
pointed to where He lay, and over long
wearisome roads. through wilderness and
desert they came to worship the Christ
Child and to present Him with their hum
bic gifts. While some welcomed Him
with gladness, Others were indignant
and sought TO take His precious life.
Dear Householders. how are you going
To celebrate Christ's birthday in this the
year OF 1910? Are you going to celebrate
n a way that will bring into sEeeter
realization Of His love and goodness. or
I'm a way that will cause Him to turn
i'm sorrow from you? Let us. like the
lcwly shepherds and the three Wise
Men. humble ourselves and come before
Him and worship Him as we have never
wCrshipped Him before.
Here the pen was laid aside never again
TO be used. The dear hands now draw
music from a golden harp, and the lips
that were often blanched with pain now
sing praises TO the Prince she sees with
glcrified eyes.
Faithfully yours,
LIZZIE o. THOMAS.
