STELLA E. SAXTON.

Out of the darkness flames the light—A lark takes wing.
Poem

JESUS—CHRIST

LAURA GERAHTY.

O Master , thou with the patient eyesAnd the brow that bore and strove;With the voice that ne'er a word conveyedBut was born of infinite Love;Men say, as they pass on their way today,Bending low neath the weight of care,Could they touch thy hem that their silent griefWould melt in the saintly air.

Across the lonely moor of the sky,Wild and bleak and pale,When the fairy webs of frost are spunAnd the autumn wind-harps ring.

GROWING

LAURA GERAHTY.

OUR KNIGHT

ADA J. MILLER.

Surely he'd come, this knight, and like the king,Arthur of old, redress the wrong and standFor honor, justice, and for stainless truth!In dream I saw him draw his sword,—the Word,Before whose power wrong shrinks, abashed and pale,Foreseeing doom in this one flash of light.

IN LOVE I LIVE

THE LIGHT

SAM DAWES.

When Love along our pathway leads, We take no thought for daily needs,— But stroll along in pastures green Which hitherto we have not seen; And tho' the day turns into night, Love leads us onward toward the light.
