OF INTEREST IN THE
- SOCIAL REALM
May This Year Be The Best Year
With every rising of the sun
Think of your life as just begun.
The Past has concealed and buried
deep
All yesterdays. There let them sleep.
Concern yourself with but Today,
Grasp it, and teach it to obey.
Your will and plan. Since time began
Today has been the friend of man.
You and Today! A soul sublime
And the great heritage of time.
With God himself to bind the twain,
Go forth brave heart; Attain; Attain.
—Anon from British Weekly.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
May this day and all the days
of the New Year bring to you
and those who are dear to you
the sunshine of happiness—Rich
