Where the cribs are fairly bursting with

and the dear old dad looks wise
As he views the shining turkey and the

I can see the pumpkin glowing as she
fills the snow white crust,
And my soul this very minute feels the
old time wanderlust.
Oh, PII soon be treadins backward DER

To the old home in the valley, to the

WISDOM.

Wisdom is the only thing
which can relieve us from the
sway of the passions and the
fear of danger and which can
teach us to bear the injuries of
fortune itself with moderation
and which shows us all the
ways which lead to tranquility
and peace.-Young.
As for me, all I know is that
I know nothing.-Socrates.
The doorstep to the temple Of
wisdom is a knowledge Of our
