Ferguson. She was born May g.
1919, and was few days past TWEEN

Weep not dear father and mother,
for her little form is asleep. A lit
tie spirit is gone; another little
voice is hushed and a little angel
born. Two little feet are on the
wey to that home beyond the skies,
and our hearts are like the void that
comes when a strain of music dies.
A pair of little baby shoes, and the
toys our darling loved, and the dress
she used to wear, end the little grave
so dear where flowers love to grow,
and these are all the hopes that
came a little over twenty months
ago. The birds will sit on the little
grave and g'ng q sweet refrain to
the beautiful little sleeping form
that used to sing to them But never
again will these little lips to their
songs of love reply, for that silvery
voice is blended with the minstrelsy
on high.-Writtcn by one that loved
her dearly.

The Prodigal Girl.

We all have heart for the prodigal
boy,
Who was caught in sins mad whirl,
And we welcome him back with
songs of joy,
But what of the prodigal girl?
For the prodigal boy there's an open
door
And a fathers bounteous fare,
And though he is wretched and sick
and poor,
He is sure of welcome there.
But what of the girl who has gone
astray?
Who has lost in the battle of sin?
Say, do we forgive in the same sweet
way
We've always forgiven him?
Does the door stand ajar as if to say
Come enter, you need not fear,
I've been open thus since you went
away,
Now close to the second year,"
Or do we with hand of hellish pride
Close and bolt the door,
And swear while heaven and earth
abide
She shall enter here no more?" q
Oh Christ! it seems we have never
learned
The lesson taught in the sand,
For even yet the woman is spurned
And atoned in Christian land.
Down in the slough we hurl her back
Then turn around with smile
And welcome the boy from the sin
full track,
Though he may have been more vile.
For we all have heart for the
prodigal boy
Who was caught in sins mad whirl
And we welcome him back with
songs of Joy;
But what of the prodigal girl?
