persuasive work must be done before

A SIGNIFICANT FACT.
BY REV. J. EvEREITE NEEsE

The election is practically over and
as / write there comes to my mind
a significant fact. In the lives of the
candidates there was a fight to the
end. They knew no turning back, but
straight ahead they went until the
md.
In this connection there is a sig
nificant fact in the life of the church
Of God. 1t knows no turning back
From the church the candidates must
have received their inspiration The

pens right at me, it always makes me
Jump. l am fidgety and know it, But
you just had better not call me ner-
vous And if any one asks me if 1 am
l say,
NO I'M NOT NERVOUS.
mo, I'm not nervous!'
Those very words from my lips leapt
AS boys, we by graveyard crept;
And when once uttered twas too late
To retract them, for by the gate
With moaning voice and waving hood,
In open view a great ghost stood.
With living walls and dying means
1t danced among the grey tombstones;
l do not know, but think I flew
All way back home. But then | knew
That I'd be brave. And when in bed
To brother told ii all and said
mo, I'm not nervous!"
mo, I'm not nervous!"
Those words another day l lowed
While standing talking in a crowd
Someone blew up a paper sack
And busted it right at my back.
l jumped a foot or two, by heck.
Then caught that boy right Ky the
neck,
And said to him, II don't mind noise
From pranklish, childish, boisterous
boys,
But when you must some more noise
make,
Please warn me first, for Moses sake,
So that 1 will know that noise is near.
And be prepared to have no fear"
mo, I'm not nervous"
mo, I'm not nervous!"
Though children sitting round my
Grandchildren looking up to see
These sunken eyes and Snow-white
hair,
And playing all around my chair;
1t seems to me that modern boys
Can make more numerous kinds Of
noise.
Orchestra grand, and radio,
Into my ears they do bestow,
say to you, far worse noise
Then Ger was made when we were
boys.
When children come my way to PLAY,
Down at them look and then l say,
mo, I'm not nervous!"
And for the sake of those who do
not like poetry, we are again asking
for some more of those tales of an
Gent history, memories, or tell us
