SUNSHINE SONG

Up in the tree top little bird
Was singing his song Of glee,
From the tiny throat the music would
float
In an anthem Of jubilee.
He needed no words with his music,
AS he sang lovely all the day;
The notes were so clear I know you
could hear
The words he intended TO say.
A beautiful song to the sunshine
Hearing him you would agree
That not a word you had ever heard
Could add to that song of glee.

With children coming home for the
Easter Holidays, parents are getting
ready for little surprise parties and
dinners. It's these things that make
impressions on the children and send
them back to school with loud praising
of their parents. Half of the fun of
going back to school rests in all the
swell" things that happened while
at home, things that just won't keep
and must be told in one breath. And
here is a dessert that is bound to
bring about said rawlings:

RADIANT LIVING
The Sufficiency of Divine Revelation
By Rev. C. M. Griffith
Methodist Pastor of

Methodist Pastor OF
Deals Island, Md.
Why did not the Christ make Him
self known to the two disciples as He
walked with them along the way to
Emmanuel. Why did He wait until
He broke the bread at their humble
home that evening?
Perhaps a sudden revelation of His
identity would have been too much for
their credulity. They might have TAX
en- it as hallucination. It must have
been to safeguard them against all
such danger known by first walking,
talking, and eating with them.
And as they recalled how He had
talked with them and how He had eat
en- with them, the disciples know that
they had not seen an apparition. He
was a real man!
And as they recalled how He had
previously broken bread and in the
handling Of it to them, He was, in
reality, approaching that inner shrine
of sacred truth wherein the glory of
Deity itself could no longer be con-
cealed. Nobody had extended bread
to another as He once did in that
upper room. And in the handing Of
that bread and in all that it signi-
fled, He stood revealed!
I thank God that when Christ re-
veals Himself to the soul there can be
no mistake. There can be no linger-
ing doubts. The soul has recognized
Deity and that is enough!
Blessed is the soul to whom there
have been impaired a revelation of
deity!

OUR MODERN LIFE


Oh, the modern life we live today,
It really does not seem to pay;
We live a life that goes so fast,
That we forget what happened in the
past.
Down the highway we whizz in a car,
So fast that we don't see half by far;
The things that entrance our beauty
and keep us up to par,
Also changes our faces until we hard
ly know who we are.
But on we speed putting thirty-foul
hours in a day,
And thinking they were short poles
we passed on our way;

We'd find they were telephone poles
