OF INTEREST IN THE SOCIAL REALM V my master I had walked life’s path with an easy tread, Had followed where comfort and pleas ure led; And then by chance, in a quiet place, 1 met my Master face to face. With station and rank and wealth for a goal, Much thought for the body, but none for the soul, I had entered to win in life’s mad race, When I met ray Master face to face. I had built my castles, and reared them high, Till their towers had pierced the blue of the sky; I had sworn to rule with iron mace, When I met my Master face to face, I met Him and knew Him and blush ied to see at His eyes, full of sorrow, were fix* ed on me; And I faltered and fell at His feet that day, While my castles melted and vanished away. Melted and vanished, and in their place I saw naught else but my Master’s face; And I cried aloud, “Oh, make me meet To follow the marks of Thy wounded feet!” My thought is now for the souls of men. I have lost my life to find it again E’er since alone in that holy place My Master and I stood, face to face. —Author Unknown. Prize For Quilt The local chapter, U. D.
