The yellow-leg snipe travels a mat

THE GIFTS FOR MOTHER

The gladdest hour of Christmas day.
The time the hearts are highest
An every care is chased away
An all the smiles are brightest,
Is when the family, young an old,
From dad to little brother.
With all the love that hearts can hold
Come bringing gifts to mother
We keep her presents till the last
An then when she sits rocking,
An all the other gifts are passed,
We 90 an get her stocking.
We gather round her easy chair,
First one an then the other
Steps up an says: "Well, | declared
Here's something else for mother!
An with each present goes kiss,
An all is still an quiet
When mother murmurs; What 10 thisr'
An hastens to unite 1t.
Then everybody wildly cheers
An shouts for perfect gladness,
An mothers eyes are moist with tears,
But not the tears Of sadness.
Oh here's scene that gold can't buy,
Or stage in imitation,
The smiling face, the gistening eye
OF loves own celebration.
And with each jolly Christmas day s,
We pray to know another
When we shall meet the self-same way
And bring our gifts to mother.

In conclusion the Grand Master said
The work submitted for your con-
sideration will not materially affect
the destiny of Masonry or involve any
great or decisive issues but it will
be important nevertheless. We are in
clined to put too high an estimate
upon the great things and overlook
those smaller ones out of which grow
the real issues of life. The average
man has little concern with great af-
fairs but he who despises the day of
small things will generally fail in all
things. The cooperation in which
each submits his mite is what consti-
tutes the great strength of Masonry.
Let the work of the session be joined
in from the floor The rights of the
representative from the smallest lodge
from the remotest part of the state are
equal to those of the past grand mas
ters on my right. Let tho body of the
craft take part in the discussions that
the final product may represent the
united efforts of the whole.
