O ye who abide in the fold's cheery shelter,Protected and fed, snug and safe from the cold,List ye to the sweet loving voice of the shepherd:"And others I have, which are not of this fold.

THE PRIZE

STELLA E. SAXTON.

I know it waits for me,Exquisite thing;High, high I climb,My steps ne'er faltering,So dear the prize,Hid in a crevice there,A pale, soft star,Dropped from the Alpine skies—Fair bloom of edelweiss!

GROWTH

EVELYN SYLVESTER KNOWLES.

The lowly floweret growing at my feetLifts trustingly its face toward the light,By sweet reflection groweth ever brightAnd brighter, and its breath more pure and sweet,No eye beholds it in this lone retreat;From all save One, its beauty hidden quite,As hides yon beaming star the cloud of night;Yet smiling on, it lives its lifetime fleet.
