REnnnaBER, THESE PROMISES.

Dear Miss Thomas-WilI you please
admit a Mississippi woman this a. m?
have long been a subscriber to The
Journal and other Atlanta papers.
And in the language of the poet, 1 will
say: "One day nearer cries the boat
man. as the seagull cuts the foam, we
are one day nearer heaven: we are one
day nearer home"
Time is swiftly speeding on, And
winter days are come. Despite white
frosts ard cold nights we have some
lovely Sunshiny days, and as | raise
my eyes skyward. the evening star
stands out in cold array amid the soft
rays of the moonlight, while the great
fuIl-moon rides among the clouds like
a queen in all her pride. AS the small
er lights twinkle and dance in merrI-
men; l wonder If they are not sent to
cheer our dropping spirits, to tighten
our burdened souls to world beyond.
l wonder that l had the power to
fathom the great beyond and look down
and beckon to you all, and make you
understand your mission here.
There is destiny that shapes our
lives, rough hew them as we may.
And, although l cannot write fiuently,
my experience has been a bitter one.
The dear Journal has helped me pass
many a sad moment and with it fingers
the sacred memories of a very dear
friend found through it's columns. And
even though 1 feel a great sorrow con-
fronting me, l find myself seeking con-
ISOLATION in the passage of scripture,
which says: Come unto me all We
weary and heavy laden and l will give
rest. Blessed assuranceg
One thing more l want to call to your
attention in this great governmental
strife for victory. The great and sure
promise that where two or three have
met together in the name of the Faith
er, asking-believing' ye shall receive
Then, at evening, when the sun is hid,
| ing his shining rays behind the western
horizon, kneel in humble supplication,
asking for American freedom and for
| jrstice and victory in the name of the
Lord and you shall not be disappointed.
So sayeth the holy word of God.
Although l am frail. not able to do
much, 1 want to do all that I can to
help win our cause on earth and work
| for my blessed Saviour. Prayer is a
mighty weapon and when we ask for
what is right and just, l know that our
Heavenly Father will grant our request
even though IL may not come in the
way we are expecting it. Long may
you live and blessings rich and rare
crown your efforts.
