MAINE GOSSIP
Lila In hut 4 Span

Life's but a span. a span, not more,
Across the tide from shore to shore,
From childhoods brink where waters
To greensr fields eternal day.
LIES but thread. tangled thread,
BY which each soul on earth is led
Through pain and care to know Ills
love,
To seek through faith the home above.
From out the dim and unknown cline,
We move across the scene of time,
And looking forward strive to see,
And fathom all eternity.
Imbued with His eternal love,
Enshrined in thoughts of things above,
The single object of the heart,
How best to do our little part.
Not yet revealed in full His plan,
His purpose ultimate to man:
Yet we'll we know the Fathers love.
Exceeding all below, doth prove.
In His own time, His chosen hour.
Moved by His love, touched by His
power,
Each human soul with one accord
United all shall praise the Lord.
And to this true communion brought,
All things perfected to His thought,
Each soul in purpose and design,
Shall seek to do His will divine.

Remember the Aged Workers


Augusta, Me, APR Sd 1928.
Dear Editor:
There Is great tendency in these
days to boost things, without re-
gard to whether the taxpayers can
afford it or not. There is the grea [
cry about the child labor law. that
a child or young person must not
work till Is years of age or care for
themselves, but | would ask, who is
to work and care for them and pay
their bills until that age? I would
like to call attention to another class
that is sadly neglected today. That
is the aged ones, those that have
worked hard from early childhood to
get and save something to take care
of themselves VIXEN old age come on.
They thought they had enough to
carry them through but the high cost
OF living and high taxes have eaten

of many comforts they cannot afford
to have. Repairs are impossible for
