CLENDANIEL-In memory of Geo
W., who departed this life, Septem-
ber 8, 1888:
September brings sad memories
OF our loved one who is laid to rest,
But he will always be remembered
By those who loved him best.
When a husband and father breaths
their last farewell,
The stroke means more than tongue
can tell;
The world seems quite another place.
Without their smiling face. !.
Why should our tears in sorrow flow?
When God recalls His own.
And bids them leave a world OF woe
For an immortal crown. .t.
His tolls were past, his work was
He fought the fight, the victory won.
No one knows how long he struggled
Against disease which baffled skill and
care,
He suffered much and murmured not.
AS we watched him day by day o..
God saw his sufferings here were great
And opened wide the Golden Gate,
He took him to home Of eternal
rest, III
And he is fully blest.
Sadly missed by Wife and Children.

SEEING
By T. A. Hall, Milford

By T. A. Hall, Milford
The Lord of Life looked down to
see,
If He could see some good in me,
/ felt His penetrating gaze,
And saw His look of utter amaze.
And then I looked if 1 might see,
What He was looking at in me,
The light that shown out from His
eyes,
Revealed to me a great surprise.
His face aglow with Heavens light,
Revealed to me an awful sight,
By that light 1 then could see
Every sin there was in me.
In shame turned and tried to hide,
Twas then / saw His hands and
side, F e
] saw His bleeding feet and brow,
I've said enough; He saves me
now.

September is here once more
To us the saddest month of all.
We wonder why, we wonder why
In your youth, you had to- die?
We have no right to question,
Must take life as it comes.
But sad are the days, and long are

Until our Master calls us home.
To think we could not say goodbye
Will always bring regrets.

in defense industries is essential
and that it would increase produc-

Martin said he did not know
what laws should be passed to speed
production but declared that the
following objectives should be &C

/. There should be a strong
coordination" of all industry, both

be accomplished by creation of a
