Poem

An Eastern Vesper

WILLIAM BRADFORD TURNER.

The night winds murmur, the tree-tops croon,The cricket chirps to a vague wood-tune,And dusk sinks brooding.
Poem

The Mountain Path

AGNES FLORIDA CHALMERS.

I found a path upon the mountain-side,Winding and long;I found a path upon the mountain-side,And, with a song,Began my journeying.

Pleasant View in Autumn

GRACE WHITE.

From tree, and field, and shady nookThe birds their southward way are wending.
Poem

Be Not Afraid

The Love that breathed out "Peace, be still!"O'er stormy Galilee,While error's wave made swift response—'Tis this Love loveth thee,Loveth and calmeth thee.

Poem

The Steps

FREDERICK LAWRENCE KNOWLES

SEIZE your staff! beyond this height We shall find the Infinite Light! Gird your thigh! this sword shall hew Paths that reach the untroubled blue! Though dark mountains form the stair, It is ours to climb and dare! Law, truth, love—the peaks are three: Sinai, Olivet, Calvary!
Poem

The Eternal Now

JENNIE WALBRIDGE BRIGGS.

THERE is no past, 'twas but a dream,— A phantom of the things that seem; The future is not ours, to say What will be, whether yea or nay.
Poem

The Way

HAROLD SUSMAN.
