LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT

CARE OF THE SECRET

read in a magazine the other day,
little Malquise, that after man and
woman were married some years
they acquired something better and
even sweeter than the thrill of pas
sionate love.
Little Marquise, you never married
your kingly lover, SO of course you
do not believe that and let me make
IL confession right here to you:
Neither do | believe it, l haven't as
yet acquired anything that is sweeter

Above all else, want to be friends
with Jack, and am afraid am not.
He never seems to want to be friends
with me. He either loves me great
deal or hates me, and it makes my
heart beat with fear at times because
if what every one says is true and
married life must be settled down
into friendship, then my happiness
will not last.

POETS CORNER
GOODS TEMPLE"
BY Julia C. Mofit.

God gave you beautiful body
And filled it with gifts most rare;
God gave you life and intelligence
And placed them in temple there.
Your heart is wonderful organ,
It's music fills the temple grand;
And your voice is made for singing,
Gods praise to all the land.
Your eyes are Gods beautiful win
dows,
They sparkle and glisten with
health;
Your face is beautiful mirror
Rejecting yourself and Gods
wealth.
Your hands are Gods little servants
Keeping His temple clean and
bright;
Your feet work with 10Y and gladness
To see everything going just right
While just inside, Christ is waiting;
For you to turn and come in
And listen to God your dear Father
And share all your pleasures with
Him.

INTRODUCING NEW FOOD
