CONFESSIONS OF A WIFE
ELEANOR'S LETTER TO DICK

have had a letter from an old
friend of my mother, very wealthy
and childless woman, who wants me
to come and live with her.
1t will be a calm resting place. To
reach it, however, must have a lit
tie money.
You cannot tell how horrible it is
for me to mention that word to you,
but it all comes to the one thing at
last, everything in the world must
be bought and paid for.
Send me enough money right
away, Dick, that may go out of
your life. 1 think l would die if
should look upon Margie's face
again.
Neither you nor l, Dick, are worthy
of her. 1 never until now have
thought much of Margie. My world
meant only you i only knew
that:
All through the long, unhappy years
l made one passionate plea;
Imploring fate to brush aside
The dark despair of hope deferred
And give to me the boon of love,
Without which life were drear indeed.
In the gray days and months and
years
That span eternitys far shore
Just sixty minutes filed with love
Would make my cup of bliss o'erfow,
And1 on memories feed forever more.
One little hour by radiance blest,
One golden hour
Alas! Deaf were the ears to which 1
cried
And I went stumbling through
storms,
My way o'ercast with clouds and
dark
Until you came| saw the sun
Of love shine through your eyes,
l laid my weary head upon your
breast
And there, encircled by your loving

this crisis only evil with Satan hav- ing his way or can we see Jesus marching through the centuries up to the throne. of the universe where he shall sway the sceptic with unlimited power. Whatever views we may en- certain in regard to the world crisis, =ene thing is certain, God isn't at a loss to know what to do, neither have his plans miscarrfed. The present systems founded on greed and injus- t1ce. must be shattered. Systems founded on despotism will not surren- der without a. struggle. Hence the tclashing of forces with widespread sorrow and desolation. But the night Of gloom. and sorrow will end as the morning appears with the bright promise of a fairer day. This crisis will give the church a splendid oppor- tunity to show her true worth We have the. light, why don't we shine? :? We have, the power, why don't we Wleld it. l count the church by far the. noblest and best institution on earth, but there are many in it failing sadly to rightly interpret Christ to the world. May the church not lose her sway and in these dark hours show her real worth to the world. Yes, in everything, we can give thanks.
 If Thankful, Say So.
 Last, not least, I must mention the temporal and spiritual blessings of this present day. Food to eat. cloth ing to wear and homes of comfort arc blessings indeed. One-third of h. dia's population goes to bed hungry every night. How many in war-de- vastated Europe are without food, clothing and a home. little thought will stir our hearts deeply. If thank full. let us say so.
 Thanksgiving isn't much until it blossoms into expression
 There was an Indian through whose village missionary passed and left 9 Gospel. The Indian read it and was made happy. Measuring the mission ary's footprint, he fitted it with mag nifcesat nnoccasins. then travelled two hunfS edf miles to give them to the missionary as an expression of his gratitude.
 How far shall we go to express our gratitude to God? How rich we are in Jesus. For Christian fellowship, for tho Lords day, for Gods biggest gift to us in Jesus, for the assurance of His coming again and the lirnitlsss eternity of life in all its fullness o 3ord. we cry in the language of the PsaImist: Bless ! the Lord o my soul and all that is within me, bless his holy name"

ECCLESIASTICAL YEAR
 --.--.---- COMES TO A CLOSE.
a4.-- E'H --rz.--.----s 5. christ's, Wocda. Predicting End of All Time, Theme Of Rev. J. H. Brod- -: erick's Sermon.

The good results of the recent mis- sion eiyen by zFralciscan Fathers in St. Patricks church were evidenced Sunday, when a large number of the parishioners, especially many men and boys, received Holy Communion at the early mass from the rector, Rev. John H. Frederick, who was assisted by Rev. Myles P. Calvin. Yesterday was the twentyfourth Sunda! after Pen ecclesiastical year.. since Advent be- gins next Sunday. Hence there was particular solemnity to the epistle read in the masses during the day, which was St. Paul to the Colossians, ]. s-14, beginning, Brethren. we that ye may be filled with the knowl- edge of His will. in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, while the days gospel was Matt. xxiv. 15-25.' At that time Jesus said to His disci- ples, When ye shall zee the abomina- of by Daniel the prophet. standing in the holy place. let him who readest understand" and ending, Heaven and earth. will pass away. but My word will not pass away"
 The oppositeness of this gospel to year was pointed out by Father Brod- erick in his brief sermon, as he preach ed from the closing test. That all earthly things are doomed to one day pass, observation and experience must teach us. The seed is planted, ger inmates and grows. produces the flow CT which God designs it to produce, in it's appointed time withers and dies. So, too. with the twig, which develops in tothe tree, from which it's fruit is ultimately picked or falls to the ground.
 As the flower and the fruit so with man. The infant is brought into the world, enjoys the years of childhood and youth, becomes the man who is filling his place in the worlds life, perhaps is conscious of his superior ity. to his fellows and cherishes the opinion that the world could not fill his place if he were gone. In a very short time at the best, he is laid away in his coffin. What Is true of individ- uals is. true of communities and of na- 'tions and peoples.
 Human reason teaches us, too, that there must sometime be an end to all earthly things, that end of time, when there shall be neither day nor night, when the awful silence which has fall on upon the earth shall be broken by that summons to the General Judg- ment, not the individual judgment which follows which the dissolution of the soul from body. but final judgment according to Christ's prediction, when, in the presence of all mankind, of ones friends and neighbors and relatives, each man shall have meted out to him
