MA awhile. Life and death,

were the mysteries over which the
men of old time thought. often till
their hearts were sad.
And because our forefathers were a

where winter was far longer and more
bitter than it is. thank God, now.
therefore, all their thoughts about win
ter and spring were sad and they
grew to despair at last of life ever con-
quering death or light conquering dark
ness.
And then-so strangely does Gods
gift Of hope linger In the hearts of
men-they saw beyond all that a dim
dream of a new heaven and new
earth in which should dwell righteous
ness. and of new sun, more beauti-
full than ours: of woman called
