BITS O’ BEAUTY
“HE GIVETH HIS LOVED ONES
' SLEEP.”
“He sees when their foctsteps falter,
When their hearts grow weak and
faint;
He marks when their strength is fail
ing, :
And listeas to each complaint;
He lids them rest for o season,
For the pathway has grown too
steep. '
And. folded in fair green pastures, '
He giveth his loved ones sieep.
Like weary and wornout children
That sigh tor the daylight's close,
He knows that they oft are longing
For home and its sweet repose,
So he calls them in from their labor
Ere the shadows around them
creep,
And, silently watching o’er them,
He giveth his loved ones sleep.
He giveth it—oh, so gently!— |
As a mother will hush to rest °
The babe that she so softly pillows
So tenderly on her breast;
Forgotton now are the trials and |
Sormows that made them weep.
For. with many a soothing promise,
He giveth his loved ones sleep.
He giveth it- Friends the dearest
Can never this boon bestow,
But He touches the drooping eyelids, |
And placid the features grow; J
Their foes may gather about them, :
And storms may round them sweep,
But, guarding them safe from danger,
He giveth his loved ones svleep.‘
All dread of the distant future, '
All fears that oppressed today,
Like mists that clear in the sunlight,
Have noiselessly passed away;
Nor call nor clamor can rouse them
From slumber s pure and deep,
For only his voice can reach them
Who giveth his loved ones sleep.
% %k %k %k
God grant that we may rest as calmly
When our work is done! l
Till then we will yield with gladness
Our treasures to Him to keep,
and rejoice in the sweet assurance:
He giveth his loved ones sleep.

Once more the ra,ven‘bus‘gmsship-[
per is wreaking devastation upcn
western fields, and {the plague is be-l
coming to destructive in parts of Tex-:
'as that federal aid is bein em))loy(;d‘

state. ?
Writing to the National Geographic
Society, David Fairchild describes
this fascinating if ruthles creature as
follows:
“The ycung king grasshopper is pmb-{
ably 20 days old, and its wings have
not developed, but it can jump a
hundred times its length, whereas
man can scarcely cover three times
his length at g leap. Wihen its wings
grow and its internal air sacs fill with
‘air it can sail away for miles. One
representative of this family can sail
‘tor a thousand miles bcfore teh wind
Land they go in such numbers that
they make a cloud 2,000 square miles
in extent.
“Its great front lip hides a pair of
jaws as effective as a hay-chopper,
and it has an appetite as veracicus as
that of a hippopotamus. This vora
ciousness and these jaws are what
have made several of its relatives the
plague of mankind. They multiply in
such numbers as to baffle all calcu
lation and every living green thing
for” thousands of square miles disap
pears dcwn their throats, leaving the
country they infest desclate. The
ereat famine -f Egypt, mentioned in
the book of Exodus; the grasshopper
years of Kansas, which ruined thou
sands of families on our plains, and
more recent devastations i;] Argen
tina and South Africa are examples
of the tremendous efects which the
migratory locusts have had upon the
happiness of mankind.
“As this young grasshopper stands
looking so inquiringly at one with
his varicolored eves, each of which is
ccmposed of hundreds of facets, I can
not help thinking that he represents
a creature quite as fascinating and
actually more dangerous that the
Rast African monsters of our school
THE CORDELE DISPATCH
