NEWS =_ OF INTEREST IN THE SOCIAL REALM "Not what we have—but what we use; Not what we see—but what we choose; These are the things that mar or bless The sum of human hagpiness. "The things nearby— not things afar; Not what we seem—but what we are; These are the things that make or break, That gives the heart its joy or ache. "Not what seems fair—but what is true: Not what >ve dream—but the good we do; These are the things that shine like gems, Like stars, in heaven’s diadems. "Not as we take—but as we give; Not as we pray—but as we live; These are things that make for peace, Both now and after time shall cease.” U. D. C.
