OF INTEREST IN THE
= SOCIAL REALM
A MOTHER’S VISION
Kitting alone in the firelight, with aged
head bent low
Over some little garments that were
worn in the long ago,
A woman, old and faded, was dream
ing of other years;
And the faces of absent loved ones she
saw through a mist of tears.
All was silent; no echo of footfalls
swift and gay;
The dancing feet of her children had
wandered far away,
Busy and happy and thoughtless, they
were scattered far and wide;
All grown to be men and w r ovien —save
the little boy who died.
It was strange that of all the children,
he should feel tonight so near,
His little grave had been covered by
the snows of many a year;
Yet she fancied she saw him enter; that
she saw him standing there,
His blue eyes clear and smiling, the
light on his curly hair.
And a voice spoke from the silence,
saying, ‘ This for you I kept;
But my meaning you could not fathom
when for your child you wept.
The living have left your hearthstone,
but with you shall abide,
In the beauty of deathless childhood,
your little boy who died.”
—Christian Herald.

TRIBUTE TO MRS. WILLIS
Her body lies beneath the sod,
Her soul and spirit is in the heart of
God.
She was taken by the heavenly dove
And all she left was her kind deeds and
her mothejly love.
God was not cruel to take her away,
For every one goes when it comes their
day.
She suffered agonies untold,
But still she w r as brave and bold.
Now she is walking on the gold-paved
streets,
Waiting some day her children to meet.
Her children must live so some day
their mother they can meet
And they too may walk with her on
that gold-paved street.
To God her soul she had given
And now she sweetly rests in Heaven.
—Mary Lena Martin.
