THE PASSING-BELL.
BY Walter Sichei.

That was tn Passing-bel
For whom? For one who died
That England might fare well.
One of thet hero-host innumerable,
A Nations pride
But England never dies,
Through such she lives and rears,
Her standard OF emprise,
High faith, free hope, and all that puriiies
The stain Of years.
ii tolls not; it is glad,
Glad with solemn spell.
Can Engiand's heart be sad
Ennobled by the noblest sons she had?
1t is no passing-bell.

REALIZATION.

Much of the finest in human
character is passive. Stored, as
it were. Inert. 1t may not be a
matter of knowledge, much less
Of education.
But Just let the fire of magma
ton once touch this hidden power
and the whole soul of q man may
be stirred No one has ever been
able TO measure in advance the
amount of damage q bomb may
do. Likewise, neither do you know
the depth and influence Of the
masses Of possibilities that sleep
within you, ready To respond to
great emergencies when aroused.
But as YOU realize, every char
acter centre is thrilled
Our innate temperament speaks
q various language. And we our
selves ofttimes misunderstood it
most. But as light blots out dark
ness, so do our realHations. rs they
come singly or in pairs, rebound
and inspire,
Just to know that today you
walk, though yesterday you may
have creptI
Be glad that you get dis
couraged. Rejoice In your discon-
tent And know that in imper-
fectio1 and failure lies force
that is able TO sweep you into q
realization of your fondest hopes
and your most cherished ideals.
Realization Gomez this way.
Sort of explore yourself each
day. For each discovery rs sure
to bring with it a realization of
much beauty and much happiness.
