Proud mothers and fathers have
stood in that church, holding their
babes, brot to receive name and d
blessing, to be consecrated anew to
the Oliver of all things.
Again and yet again the walls
have joyously echoed the children's
voices as they sang or spoke in COM
memoration of some hallowed day.
Little hearts have beaten hard with
trepidation at thought of speaking
or singing before those crowded
pews, and eyes and cheeks have
glowed at expressed appreciation of
their efforts.
How happy have been the hearts
at the Christmas season, as little
hands bore the gifts for others
white gifts for the King"
But again and ever again, break
ing hearts have followed all that was
mortal of the one that had been
dearest and best to them, the one
around whom all hopes and prayers
and plans had centered for years,
and who now had passed the, inn
measurable, ever unknown divide
which leads into eternity. Torn and
bleeding hearts have CROPPED for
comfort through the midnight OF
sorrow as the pastors words Of in /.
tended comfort reached them vague
ly through their tears.
Yes, the little old church is pas

the radiance of sunset afterglow,
blessed memories of mingled Joy and
sadness that time will never efface
nor age obliterate.
