Mr. (linton Goforth who has
recently returned from France
gave a short but very enjoyable
talk. T hen refreshments were

Below is the poem composed by
Mrs. Wood:
A church, unshepherded, sought far and
wide
A leader who should be to them a guide
To higher planes where richer truths
are found,
Where joy and peace and faith and love
abound.
They would be led to sweeter, simpler
living,
To truer service, more unselfish giving;
To visions of a world’s great, crying
needs,
Clear calls from Heav’n to strong, he
roic deeds;
To gratitude for all God’s daily care,
For food and raiment, and for friend
ships rare;
For sunshine bright, for happy songs
of birds;
For bounteous harvests anil contented
herds;
For fragrant breath of countless glow
ing flowers;
For shades of night, for sweet, refresh
ing showers;
For happy children shouting at their
play;
For worthy tasks to fill each passing
day;
For health and rest, for strength to do
their part;
For living faith in God’s great, loving
heart.
Aye, for all blessings, whether great or
small,
To thank the loving Father for them
all.
To find a man who’d be a worthy guide,
The search was prosecuted far and
wide.
Through north and south, through east
and breezy west,
They looked to find the very best.
And then he came, like magnet to the
pole,
And promptly into their affections
stole.
A case it was of love at sight, you see,
Nor would the flock to part with him
agree.
He must remain—he must accept their
call—
He must become their pastor, that was
all!
And so he did. And all the church
rejoice
To own him leader whom they made
their choice.
They love him well. They have but
one regret—
He’s brought, with him no Mrs. Moss ns
yet!
No Mrs. Preacher! What were they to
•lot
They didn't know—it was a problem
new.
The complications rising quite dismayed
The Elders, Deacons, and the Ladies’
Aid!
Rut bravely faced, they’re settled now
and past.
This afternoon they solve the very lust.
They had to “shower” the preacher,
nothing less
Would prove the welcome that they
must exj>*#ss
Since pantry stores would scarce to
him appeal,
fWhnt’or the coning days may yet
fdleaf,)
The f.rtdies’ Aid heve soiught a gift to
find
That e'en-a bachelor's benighted mind
Would find acceptable. They trust that
he
Will In' this gift their loyal welcome
see; •
That an ho rests withjn its ample arms
All weariness and cares and dread
alarms
Will pass away, and burdens be forgot
And gentle peace will soothe his lonely
lot.
For years to come may he refreshment
find
In its embrace for body, soul, and mind;
And may the God he serves His blessing
send,
That church and pastor, close as friend
to friend,
Through many years may labor, love
and pray,
Their felloship grow sweeter all the
way,
As together faithful service bring
In loyal tribute to the Heavenly King.

ENDORSES S. A. DRIVE
Venerable Churchman Expresses
Hope That $13,000,000 Will
Be Raised.
The following letter was addressed
to former Governor Whitman of New
York slate by Cardinal Gibbons:
“Honorable and Pear Sir —I have
been asked by the local Commander of
the Salvation Army to address a word
to you as National Chairman of the
Campaign about to be launched in be
half of the above named organization.
This I am happy to do, and for the rea
son that along with my fellow Ameri
can citizens I rejoice in the splendid
service which the Salvation Army ren
dered our soldier and sailor boys dur
ing the war. Every returning trooper
is a willing witness to the efficient and
generous work of the Salvation Army
both at the front and in the camps at
home. I am also the more happy to
commend this organization because It
is free from sectarian bias. The man
in need of help is the object of their
effort, with never a question of his
creed or color.
“I trust, therefore, your efforts to
raise $18,000,000 for the Salvation
Army will meet with a hearty response
from our generous public. Faithfully
yours,
“J. CAUI). GIBBONS." •
