Bright robes of gold the fields adorn,
The hills with joy are ringing,
The valleys stand so thick with corn
That even they are singing,
And now on this, our festal day,
Thy bounteous hoard confessing.
Upon Thine altar, Lord, we lay
The first fruits of Thy blessing.

With gifts of grace supernal.

never taken much interest in the
housing of its Ambassadors, says a
British weekly, and when Dr, Page
first arrived in London in 1918,.hav-
ing no embassy to go to, he had to
find rooms at a hotel like an ordinary
tourist,
Soon afterwards he set out one
night to see the sights of the metro-
polis 'by moonlight, and while stroll-
ing slowly round Trafalgar Square
Ito was a costed by a suspicioud po-1
liceman, who inquired his name.
