Mrs. Jones was in the hospital
and the nurses and relatives had
cautioned friends not to tell her
her illness was serious because
they did not think Mrs. Jones
could take it,.
For two weeks nothing was said
to Mrs. Jones about her operation
or her condition so, finally, one
day she said to her nurse, why
don't you tell me 1 have a very
bad heart and may not get over
it"
Completely shocked by the ques-
ton the nurse asked, who told
you that?" Mrs. Jones said, no
body told me anything is the main
reason you must be Withholding
bad news. You would have told me
if you had something good to re-
port, wouldn't you?"
Recovering her composure the
nurse said she knew Mrs Jones
was going home soon, and she
asked her what kind of news she
thought that was. Mrs. Jones was
overjoyed at the good news that
she was going home within a
weeks time She had been worry
ing because she couldn't find out
just how her condition had i'm
proved since her operation.
Hearing the good news she was
soon to go home made her feel so
bright and cheerful she did not
have time to think of her opera
ton nor anything but making
plans to get home. She was one of
the many who could not take
bad news gracefully.
In another hospital few blocks
away a friend of hers told her
doctor she wanted to know just
what her condition was, the truth
and all about it. She was told anc

MY LITTLE CALVARY

MY LITTLE CALVARY
Lord, how trivial seems my Calvary
When I consider Thine,
For only Simon helped Thee lift
Thy cross,
But many carry mine!
am not scorned, nor scourged,
nor ridiculed,
And all along the way
Are many sweet unnamed
Veronicas
To wipe the tears away.
There are no cruel nail wounds in
my hands,
Nor thorns upon my brow,
And ministering angels walk with
me
To smooth the way. But Thou!
How dare think it, call it Calvary
This sheltered life of mine
o broken, beaten, bleeding Lord
my God,
When 1 consider Thine.

ONE MANS BURDEN

Into a cross makers shop one
day came a man who YEARLY took
down his cross from his shoulders
and set it on the floor.
And what can I do for you ?"
the cross maker asked him.
II want to exchange my burden"
said the man. This one is too
heavy for me to carry. I stagger
under the load"
Very WELL" replied the cross
maker. Take your pick of all
these crosses and see which suits
you best" So the man gladly set
about trying them on. The first
was very Hght-for a moment or
two-but as he walked about test

do, for soon it became heavier
than his old one. So he tried an
other, and another, and another
until at last ne round one hghter
than all the rest.

told the cross maker. May I have
it?"
VERY WELL" the cross maker
answered, but it is the one you
brought in with you"
