Poem

Let me but live my life from year to year,...

Henry Van Dyke

Let me but live my life from year to year,With forward face and unreluctant soul, Not hastening to, nor turning from, the goal;Not mourning for the things that disappearIn the dim past, nor holding back in fear From what the future veils, but with a whole And happy heart that pays its tollTo youth and age, and travels on with cheer.

Poem

A little thought and a little care...

Josephine Pollard

A little thought and a little care,A little tenderness now and then,A gracious speech and a courtly airMay give one rank among gentlemen;But he who merits the highest place,Though clad in homespun he be, 'tis true,Is one who carries a heart of grace,And is really a nobleman through and through.

THE MASTER'S CALL

MARY LLOYD MC CONNELL.

The storm had passed me, and I layUpon the bosom of Life's ocean, derelict;Far off the thunder echoed, and beyondI heard the sullen roar of angry surfBeating a rock-bound shore; nor hope had IThat ever ray of dawn could penetrate the gloom.

HON. CLARENCE A. BUSKIRK.

Large and round the golden moonMoves a lake of clouds aboon,And the clouds like waves of laceDrift against the planet's face,While a lone star shining nighGems a rift of azure sky.
