Reflection

BERTHA MARGARET PRICE

At dawn, the tired world not yet awake,I rose and sought the quiet water's edge;And on the placid surface of the lakeEach purple ridge, each cliff and rocky ledge,Each silent cedar, pine, and paling starReflected lay, and imaged forth, sereneAnd still—no breeze to ruffle or to marThe calm and beauty of the encircling scene.
Poem

Poem

In Faith Serene

BONNIE DAY

Oh, not with striving came the demonstration,The answered prayer, the blessing I had sought;Not by the mind's intensive concentrationHeading the marshaled regiments of thought,Through the sheer force of my determination—Not by such efforts was the healing wrought.
Poem

Fulfillment

WINIFRED MABEL CANN

The wilderness and lonesome moorOffer glad psalms of praise to Thee,And deserts drear rejoice, and pourAt Love's dear shrine, their symphony.

The Awakening!

SUSAN F. CAMPBELL

"Inspiring discontent,"*That will not let us restSupinely self-deceivedIn this false world of shades,But urges us to riseOn wings of holiness,Where freed thought sings and bathesIn chastity and light!
