NEWS 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. For Mrs. Sams Mrs. L. L.

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. If prices will appeal to you, you will be convinc ed at what we have to of fer in mens Straw Hats.
