business folks resorted to candles
and oil lamps. AS result of the
darkness several amusing incidents
occurred. One young man en- route
to see his best girl hat stopped in
at a barber shop to have his hair
cut. Just as half of his hair had
parted company from his head. ont

cutting had to be discontinued until

FAITH.
Master, did | ever doubt Thee,
Doubt that Thou art love divine?
Life would lose its greatest pleasures
And my sunlight cease to shine,
And the pure true Joy of living
Seems to me could never be,
Did | doubt that You were waiting
For my spirit when set free.
Teach me Thy sweet will to follow,
And as time grows on apace
shall know glad tomorrow
