FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1931 THE NEED Take hold of faith once more. The faith that we Can find the way which now we cannot see. Faith in ourselves to battle with the gale— In times like these to lose that is to fail! Take hold of courage now. To sigh is vain. The need for rugged strength is here again. The days of easy tasks have passed along, The morning cries for resolute hearts and strong. Take hold of wisdom. Calmly let us view The troubled world where there’s so much to do. The tasks are hard and many. Let us then With the old spirit go to work again. —Edgar A. Guest.
