he stood. Yesterday crumbled into

rise in the world, this morning
There is only one day wherein to labor
and do all our work, just one sure
gift of opportunity. Only one time
the present. All else is irretrievably
behind or uncertainty before.
What a marvelously precious and
wonderful thing the present Is. To-
Day is a new birth, a resurrection
and a promise. It has all the yester-
days in II. all the accomplishment
Of human endeavor OF all the days

tration Of performance and the
pledge of progress. the fulfillment of
