dent Wilson will go down in history as a
maker of catchy phrases clothed in the
garb Of epigrams. His psychological de-
preston as a description of business
conditions and "watchful waiting as an

have a fit companion in Constructive
he1pfulness" as the watchword of the ad-

Beneath the olives moon-pierced shade,
My God alone, outstretched and bruised,
And bleeding on the earth he made,
And make me feel it was my sin.
AS though no other sin there were,
That was to him who bears the world
A load that he could scarcely bear.
