THE MACEDONIAN CALL
And a vision appeared to Paul in
the night. The Acts .is full ,of
visions.
There was a man ' of Macedonia
standing; He disclosed himself as
from Macedonia by his petition. In
that case Luke was the "man of Mac-
edonia." Beseeching him, and :say-
ing, Come over into .Macedonia :and
help us. A man's dreams are an
index of his character. Paul must

BERRY PICKING TIME IN OLD
ONTARIO
I'm .going picking berries,
Woul you like to come with hie?
I know a patch, a great big patch,
They're thick as they can be;
But you must keep it very quiet
The reason don't you see,
For if the owner finds it out
He might make it hot for me.
And, we won't take the kids along,
They sure make so much noise,
They're not the shy wee children
Like we were when girls and boys;
We'll sneak through the oat field,
We'll crawl under the fence,
We'll get ahead of'the other fellow
I bet you fifty cents.
But when we go to cross the stream,
And think the way is clear,
A great white sign now meets our
view,
No trespassing allowed here.
The men are working at the hay,
And if we cross the line,
They are watching us from behind the
load,.
And surely will us fine.
We wonder what we are going to do,
We are tired as we can be,
There is plenty of fruit, let the ber-
rie go,
And sit under a maple tree;
'We'll eat our lunch in picnic style,
As we laugh and talk with glee,
Oh thanks to the guy that put up
that sign,
And made it so easy for me.
Our thoughts turn back to long ago,
When wolves roved o'er the land,
They were glad to take the other chap
And keep him close at hand;
There was no betting on the road,
They had good common sense,
But don't we youngsters know full
well,
They had no fifty cents.
