A THANKSGIVING HYMN
For the gladness of the sunshine„
For the dropping of the rain,
For the springtide's bloom of pro-
mise,
For the .autumn's golden grain,
For the beauty of the forests,
For the fatness of the field,
For the orchard's rosy fruitage,
For the vineyard's luscious yield,
We thank Thee, 0 Lord!
' For tho noble, richer beauty,
For the light that spirits know,
For the sacredness of duty
Guiding us through life below,
"For our earthly ties so precious,
For the fireside warns and bright,
' For the faith that through the dark -
.
ark. ness
Leads us to immortal light,
We thank Thee, 0 Lord!
• For the losses and the crosses
Corning sore against our will:
From Thy hand each good gift com-
eth,
And, not less, the seeming ill.
What Thou givest in Thy wisdom,
That alone to us is blest,
.And of all Thy countless givings,
For Thy boundless love, the best,
We thank Thee, 0 Lord!
—Agnes Maule Machar.

Every fall we have to consider the ing-utensils are washed, in very hot

We can do much to avoid colds by

There does not' appear to• be any

Good general health is our best
protection. •Good general health
comes with proper food, fresh air,
plenty of rest, regular exercise, body
cleanliness and regular elimination.
All of these are just as necessary -in

they can be had in winter as in sum-

We have all noticed how colds run

that whatever the living agent or

The lesson to be learned from this
is that the individual who has a cold

4 CHILD OF FIVE
--Annie Marion Fox.
SONNET OF NIGHTFALL
Always I shall remember how the
night ;
Comes on a garden, There - can
never be
A silence deeper than the day's last
light
Brings, to a closing petal sleepily,
A tulip yawns and nods upon the
wind;
A bluebell tinkles faintly; four
o'clocks
Forget that time beats on eternally.
Folded in crimson slumber, holly-
hocks
Breathe delicately as music that is
thinned
To memory; a .bee sways on the
stocks, •
Where shadows hide his golden pir-
acy.
The moon 'comes slowly, and its
white hand rocks
The gate, until -the last bright fire-
fly goes
Into the dark. cathedral of a rose.
—Daniel Whitehead in the Yale Re-
view. '
We'll pitch our tent on the hillside,
Beneath the maple tree—
For the• life of a week -end camper
Is the only life for me. '
Who cares if the lightning flashes?
Who cares if it pours with rain?
We've weathered the storms togeth-
er,
We can weather them once again,
0, child of five; 0, man !hitt is to be,
I see your starlike eyes, so tearful,
sad;
I hear your bitter, stifled sobs; I
see
The broken toy, the best of all you
had.
So few your years you cannot. now
perceive,
How uselessare the tears so free-
ly% shed.
In later years when graver troubles
grieve,
They will but shame the hour of
courage fled.
Whate'er your course in manhood's
fleeting prime,
Be it with poverty or power be-
" strewn,
Fell fate will fill your sorrow's cup
in time
And mock you as you quaff her
bitter brewing.
So gird you now, my child, with val-
or's shield,
And learn to smile in misery's dark
• face.
The coward's part alone it is to
yield;
The brave man holds the course
and wins, the race.
—Thomas F. Doyle.
THE UNIVERSAL SONG
Let mei go whet•e'er I will
I hear a slty-,born music still,

It sounds from all things young;
From all that's fair, from all that's

Itis .7tot only in ,the rose," -
