SKATING A LA MODE

There was a time when skating wasn't so nice
One had to wait on the weather for the ice.
Skating days had to be snatched while they lasted,
sudden thaw, and skating hopes were blasted.
School days just Saturday came
With the boys all set for an ice hockey game,
And the girls mighty proud OF their new knitted caps,
Came a drizzly rain or thaw perhaps
The frozen pond would just be soup
Much to the disgust of the neighborhood troop.
But they freeze big Kinks in the park,
You can skate at will from morn till dark.
The artificial ice will hold ton weight
For dips and swirls and the figure eight.
You skate any day regardless OF the weather,
Singy, in pairs, or all together.
Modern skating Is quite a thing,
Most anybody can have his fling.
But sometimes don't you long for the hills beyond
When you just skated idly on the old mill pond.

stood at the lakeside and watched
the featherly mists as they, like
whiffs of smoke, rose from the sur
face of the gray water. But when
returned later the mists had
cleared away and the dull water
was resplendant in a binding yell
low sheen of golden sunlight.
l thought how often we are like
the water of that lake, dull and
full of rising mists of troubles
when we should be radiant with the
sunlight of joy and happiness.
noted that the radiancy with
which the water of the lake was
sparkling did not have its origin
in the lake, but it was a radiancy
reflected from the morning sun.
1t reminded me of the fact that
true radiancy in life does not or
iginate within ourselves, but is
reflection of that one source of all
light in life-God
The many mists that dull the
brilliance which our personalities
would otherwise have. are those
that rise out of human nature.
Such mists of doubt, of fmpatience,
of temper, of fears, Of selfishness,
so beyond the surface of ones life
as to make impossible any rehec-
ton of the divine glory.
AS those morning mists cleared
away when they became exposed to
the warm rays of the mounting
sun, so the mists that dull your
life will vanish if you will permit
to shine upon you the warm rays
Of Gods truth, His love, and His
power. ~ '
In the glowing rays of divine
you will find your person
atty taking on the glow of poise,
he brightness Of confidence, the
Drilliance of love. -"
Get out from under the shadows
1f life. Expose your mists to the
of God. Bask in the radi-
ince of Infinite Love.
Even the dullest life can reflect
he glory of God. "a 7A
