Autumn Foliage

Tints that no human brush can emulate,Shades that are blended by the miracleOf nature's artistry!The autumn beauties of emblazoned treesAre grand and noble evidence to allOf Mind's supreme control.

Deity Expressed

IDA MAY ABBOTT

Thou art expressed!The majesty and might of towering mountain,The beauty of the stars, the shimmering moon,The fragrant flowers, the softly flowing fountain,Are symbols of Thy presence, night and noon.

Poem

From the Hand of This Philistine

ROSA M. TURNER

I hear to-day the echo of a voiceThat rang in Judah's hills long years ago!A slender boy clad in a shepherd's coat,And in his hand a sling: from out the brookThat rippled in sweet purity alongHe took five stones—rounded, decisive thoughts;And with his face aglow, his courage high,He buckled on his armor of defense—The consciousness of God's omnipotence.
