Once more the Good AlI-Wise-Cre-
ator of this msot beautiful and mag
nificent universe has brought us (the
lfving) through another long and
cold winter, and permitted US to en-
Joy once more the most beautiful and
delightful season of spring. Yes, we
can be glad, and we should appre-
ciate the blessings that He has be-
slowed upon us in the past. This
resurrection of Old Mother Earth, as
we may term it, brings new life to
every living creature and plant. Do
we feel that we can rightly enjoy the
songs of the spring birds, the green
grass, the pure air, the warm sun
shine, the trees as they put forth their
leaves and blossoms, and many thous-
ands Of other blessings that we are
enjoying, without even taking a
thought where these good things come
from. Should we not feel thankful,
and give thanks to Him who is ''the
beginning" and T'the end" of all
things. Remember now thy creator
in the days of thy youth.
