A Poem.
by Mamie Sebastian

Wy OCbQoIioiAJ
There's a mansion.
Up in the sky,
Prepared for US.
If we only try.
1t is a gift.
From our dear Lord.
If We trust in him.
And obey his word,
And let US remember to bear in mind.
If we seek we shall always find.
And if his love, we want to win.
We should always be free from sin.
And never let Satan.
Lead us astray.
For We have to give an account.
On the judgement day.
For every sinful thing that we do.
That means me as well as you.
We should never, forget to pray.
For this is the life the truth and the
way.
What we want
Is peace and rest,
And if we live right.
We shall be blest.
At home of happiness.
Peace and bliss,
And joy and pleasure.
Shall not be amiss.
My dear friends.
That City is great.
And there's no time.
For us to wait.
Let's not put it off.
But begin to-day,
To work for the Lord.
In better way.
Remember the ten Virgins.
For the bride groom did wait.
Remember the five foolish ones.
That made it too late.
If we should like.
The five foolish ones be,
Where whould we spend.
Eternity.
If we live in sin.
And learn him not,
The result will be.
Go thy way l know We not.
Weeping and crashing.
But it is too late.
Death in darkness.
Will be thy fate.
Dear friends we should, never shun
the poor.
Nor even turn a beggar from our
door,
We commit a sin, in doing this way.
For we ourselves, may be beggar
some day.
But if we always.
Do our best.
God is merciful.
And will give US rest.
Of all joy.
The greatest to me,
Is to know there is a mansion.
Awaiting for me.
| have loved ones.
Gone before.
To that bright.
And happy shore.
! hope to meet.
Them some sweet day.
When this earth.
Shall pass away.
Let US ask.
That our sins are forgiven,
And that our reward.
Might be great in heaven,
And when you kneel.
Please take care.
To remember me.
In your prayer.

The Secret Is Out,

Hortense Cavalla, was known as the
most beautiful woman in Europe.
1t was common knowledge that a
prince of the royal blood, heir to the
throne of one of the oldest European
countries was so enamored with her
charms, that he had repeatedly offered
to marry her and relinquish his king
dom.
She was the envy and despair of all
the ladies of the court as the men had
eyes for no one but her in her presence.
And while her figure and feature were
beautiful it was the surprising lowell
ness of her complexion which was her
greatest charm.
Her skin was as white as alabaster,
smooth and velvety of texture and her
color rich and warm,

A Nonadvertiser.

There was a man in our town,
And he was wondrous wise.
He opened many places. yet
lie wouldn't advertise.
He thought il foolish 10 ~ ounce
His business as some think
They ought to do and said he had
No need OF printers ink.
Promotion of publicity.
He said. was something which
Tie more he had OF. that much less
His chance of getting rich.
He said he'd studied IL and knew
That advertising would
Beyond the shadow of a doubt
Do more harm than good.
Indeed. thin man in our town
Was truly wondrous wise.
He was a burglar. which is why
He didn't advertise.
