Only four years ago this May7
What are you dong-kddinK me7
ON the square do you mean TO say
It's only four years since revcille7
Only four years since heard the guns
And watched the white puts In the air.
Back where strange river runs
Through a country nicknamed "Over Thcre?"
Only four years since and SHELF
The hikes and the chow and the old timed Eoods7
No Mans Land and its touch OF hell,
The peoples flaming along the woods7
Tho rainy nights and the sticky mud?
The tip that dawn meant another show7
Say, 1t was back around the flood,
More than a thousand years ago.
Once In while Il all comes back
Like queer old dream. n foolish ghost;
The rest in camp. or the day attack,
OR sentry duty around some post
The submarine in a rolling sea.
Steel and flame at the break OF day
Say II couldn't have happened to me-
Hardly in this life, anyway.
Only four years this May7
The dirty trench and the killing knife7
Tell me- how do you get that way?
For this was back in another life;
1t only a frazzled dream at that
The ghost Of a dream that has lost its mate
The khaki stun and the old steel hat,
Now long forgotten and out of date

Begin the Day Right.

We have no faith i'll the old saying
that "a good beginning makes a bad
ending nor in the converse, that "a
had beginning makes good ending.
The way to end right is to begin right /;
and the way to begin the day is by
establishing communion with God
through reading His Word and through
prayer. As a recent writer has said /:
"A little contact with Scripture at the
Ieginning Of the day is like the touch
Of fresh water upon the face. 1t clears
our mental vision; it freshens our bet
ter instincts; it steadies our spiritual
pulse. Not seldom some verse will
come home to our spirits with new
meaning and a new power, and will
thus sing all day in the background OF
our. thoughts like some strain from
some lovely and remembered music. 2
II we begin the day right ourselves, Ii
is more than likely that we shall help
somebody else to finish it right.--New
Orleans Christian 4dUocate.
