JOSES, THE BROTHER OF JESUS

Joses, the brother of Jesus, Plodded from day to day, With never a vision within him To glorify his clay; Joses, the brother of Jesus, Was one with the heavy clod, But Christ was the soul of rapture, And soared like a lark, with God.

Joses, the brother of Jesus, Was only a worker in wood, And he never could see the glory That Jesus, his brother, could; "Why stays he not in the workshop?"

He often used to complain, "Sawing the Lebanon Cedar, Imparting to woods their stain."

"Why must he thus go roaming, Forsaking my father's trade, While hammers are busily sounding, And there is gain to be made?" Thus ran the mind of Joses, Apt with plummet and rule, And deeming whoever surpassed him, Either a knave or fool.

For he never walked with the prophets In God's great garden of blissAnd of all the mistakes of the ages, The saddest, methinks, was this; To have such a brother as Jesus, To speak with hirn day by day But never to catch the vision That glorified His clay.

Lest We Forget

Red, white, and blue, the colors of the United States, and the colors of Canada, signify sornething. They have meaning, and honorable traditions.

Red seerns to mean only red ink, signifying losses. White seems to mean only the white feather. Blue seems to mean only fear, discouragement, pessimism.

But according to American tradition-

"The red is for valor, zeal, and fervency"-nef red ink.

"The white is for hope, purity, cleanliness of life, and rectitude of conduct"-11ef the white feather.

"The blue, the color of heaven, for reverence to God, loyalty, sincerity,. justice, and truth"-not pessimism.
