ELLA W. HOAG

"GOD'S glory is a wond'rous thing,
Most strange in all its ways,
And of all things on earth, least like
What men agree to praise."

When the Psalmist proclaimed, "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork," he undoubtedly endeavored to lift thought from the ephemeral concepts of human belief into the grandeur and loveliness which belong to Spirit, Mind.
