GOD HIMSELF My goal is God Himself; not joy, nor peace, Nor even blessing, but Himself, my God; ’Tis His to lead me there, not nfine, but His— At any cost, dear Lord, by any road! So faith bounds forward to its goal in God, And love can trust her Lord to lead her there; Upheld by Him, my soul is following hard ’Till God hath full fulfilled my deepest prayer. No matter if the way be sometimes dark, No matter though the cost be ofttimes great, He knoweth how I best shall reach the mark, The way that leads to Him must needs be straight. One thing I know, I cannot say Him nay; One thing I do, I press towards my Lord; My God, my glory here, from day to day, And in the glory there my Great Reward. '— F. Brook. WERE ABRAHAM LINCOLN LIV­ ING TODAY the Rotary Club would supply him with a set of books, the Lion’s Club with a reading lamp, the Cosmopolitan Club with writing equip- » ment, and the Kiwanis Club with a wood­ en floor for the cabin. He would have the protection of the child labor law and government old-age insurance. A kindly philanthropist would send him to college with a scholarship. A case worker would see that his father received a monthly check from the county. The OPA would reduce the rent by 50 per cent. He would receive one subsidy for rail splitting; another, for raising some crop he was going to raise anyway, and still another, for not raising a crop he had no inten- • tion of raising. Result: There would have been no Abraham Lincoln. —Scottish Rite Bulletin.
