I'll journey on to mountain heights Or over the desert stran' With a heart all love and sympathy I'll be a friend to man. Then I'll turn from them that are sick and sad To those who press their way With joy in their hearts and a song on their lips I'll laugh with them and be gayg I'll cheer with the first when the fight they've won: And join in their every plan. I know there's nothing better to do Than being a friend to man. Then let others climb to heights of fame, And joy in standing alone, I'll walk with the crowd and learn with them What the high have never knowng I'll serve alway in some humble spot As loyally as I can, I'll be true blue in this work of life And be a friend to man. Boys flying kites haul in their white winged birds. You can't do that when you're flying words. Thoughts unexpressed may sometimes fall back dead, But God Himself can't stop them when they're said. -Will Carleton.

vexations of life are few compared to the great importance of things eternal. And now as we sail forth upon life's great ocean, we have placed our aim high, our determination steadfast, and service to man and C-ocl foremost in our hearts and minds. The world is rushing on to its destruction, heedless of its impending danger. Wie must face conditions and needs that have never arisen before. The greatest call to-day is for youth who will consecrate them- selves to Cod and live wholly to win souls for Him. To-night we wish to answer that call, as long as life shall last we will surrender ourselves ancl our lives in service to God and to our fellow men. It is our determination to so learn the lessons in this school of life that when we complete the great commence- ment in the school of the hereafter, our standing will reach per- fection and our lives will be molded after the pattern of the Divine Teacher. ln earthly preparation for that time we aim to follow in the footsteps of that one who was the greatest friend to man. Could we draw back the curtain. That surrounds each others' lives, See the hidden motive for the action, We woulcln't be so quick to criticize. Where we think we see but evil, We could see a lot of good, We would love each other better If we only understoodf' A FRIEND TO MAN MAUR1NE NETHERY Unspiralion received from S. W. Foss's The House by the Side of the Road , There are high born men who live beyond The reach of the common touch, Who will not see the countless throng And have no thoughts for suchg Who scorn when others ask a part In their heaven scaling plan, But I shall fill some lower place And be a friend to man. There's the man who shines like a morning star, Whose ever glorious name ls written on standard, banner and flag And carried aloft by fame. But I would let the star-treacler be And the great soar high as he can. I'll live next door to some helpless soul And be a friend to man. I'll earnestly seek in the dark and in the gloom For the souls that are weary and sad. I'll weep with them as they weep in their pain, Then comfort and make them glad. TWENTY
