Just A Dog

American Field
I've never known dog to wag
His tail in glee he didn't feel,
Nor quit his old-time friend to tag
AT some more influential heel.
The yellowest cur ever knew.
Was, to the boy who loved him, true.
I've never known a dog to show
Halfway devotion to his friend,
To seek kinder man to know,
Or richer, but unto the ned
The humblest dog ! ever knew
Was, to the man that loved him, true
I've never known dog to fake
Affection for q present gain,
A false display Of love to make,
Some little favor to obtain,
I've never known a Prince or Spot
That seemed to be what he was not.
But have known q dog to fight
With all his strength to shield q friend
And whether wrong or whether right,
To stick with him until the end.
And ] have known . dog to lick
The hand Of him that men would kick.
And have known q dog to bear
Starvation pangs from day to day
With him who had been glad to share
His bread and meat along the way.
No dog, however mean or rude,
ID guilty Of ingratitude.
The dog is listed with the dumb,
No voice has he to speak his creed
His message to humans come
BY faithful conduct and by deed
He shows, as seldom mortals do
A high ideal Of being true.

MORAL ISSUES
Daily Food

The Bible should be the Chris
tlan's daily bread. A child, to
grow IN size and strength, must
have good food and plenty Of it.
So the Christian must feed plen-
tifully upon Gods Word. More
over he must feed with appetite.
The child that finds no pleasure
In three meals a day needs medi-
cine, or exercise, more than food.
So the Christian who does not
find Gods Word sweet to the
taste, should look tor the cause
of his distaste.-Sermons for ST.
