Our Motto: "Promise Less-Do More"
Morning Prayer
Let me today do something that will take A little sadness from the world's vast store, And may f be so favored as to make Of joy's too scanty sum, a little more.
Let me not hurt by any selfish deed Or thoughtless word, the heart of foe or friend; Nor would f pass, unseeing, worthy need, Nor sin by silence when I should defend.
However meagre be my worldly wealth, Let me give something that shall aid my kindA word of courage or a thought of health, Dropped as f pass for troubled hearts to find.
Let me tonlght look back across the span Twixt dawn and dark and to my conscience say"Because of some good act to beast or man The world is better that I lived today.,'
-Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

"But why stop with A.B.C. meaning 'Always Be Careful?' Why not go right on with DEF, meaning, ,Don't Ever Forget?"'

RUSKIN'S PHILOSOPHY

Out of deliverance, faith.
A True Scotch Story
-Ruskin.
A Scotchman lay dying in a London hospital, far from hi6 home, and the doctor told the nurse to humor him in any way, and let him have anything he wanted. So she asked him what would cheer him most, and he said:
"I wad like to hear the bagpipes afore I dee."
So they brought a hieland piper to his bedside, who played to him as long and as loud as he desired. The Scotchman got well, but all the other patients died.

THE EARTH.
There is a time in every man's education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given him to till.-Emerson.
