Ml'I,lL'S! symbol of hope and aspiration. goal of my chief desire! That this larger life may abound in me more richly, body and spirit must agree in sweet accord. My body is the sacred temple of my spirit. Qu the solid foundation of a goodly inheritance, I will build this temple in purity and cleanness, temperance and self-control. Not with con- senting will shall I ever mar or deface this holy dwelling: rather shall I strive to make it strong and beautiful-a tabernacle tit to shelter. for life's short day, an immortal soul on its journey through eternity. And the spirit which dwells in secret shall be liberated from ignorance and all unrighteousness. By reading, by contemplation. and by intercourse with my fellows, I will open the windows of my soul to the sweet influences of eternal truth. It shall range through the long ages of the past. it shall hold communion with the kings and queens of thought: it shall enter the fairy land of the atom and the cell: it shall pass beyond the flight of the farthest star. God's truth shall set it free. Nor can I forget that what I am is of more consequence than what I know. Therefore I will love truth, cherish honor, practice kindness. and walk humbly before my God. With all my heart, soul, and strength I will labor till the day is done, that I may know the richness of a life complete. the joys of life eternal. vii
