THESHEDI-IEIQD Cf THE HILLS In the heart of the hills in Mohawk Valley there dwells a kindly old shepherd. This shepherd is an old friend of mine although he is a fanciful make-believe. Amid the glorious splendor that surrounds him he is at peace with all the world. There is something which clings about his person, that reminds one of the hills from whence he comes. The sun finds him awake at early dawn, tenderly minding the sheep which he keeps so comfortably in a little hut in the rear of his own. His sheep are better cared for than the shepherd himself. A cascade of wild roses form a bower over his little cottage, and the setting sun shedding its rosy rays upon it finds it nestled snug among the hills like a babe in its motheris arms. Thus the wind finds things, as it comes whispering through the tree tops. The sheep also come from a world of make-believe, and their names are: Beautiful Thought, Love, Self-Confidence, Truth, Gentleness, Frank- ness, Joy, and What Other People Think. A Beautiful Thought is seldom found in the dust and hub-bub of city life, while Joy is everywhere. What Other People Think does more good than anyone knows, yet may do harm if used wrong. Self-Confidence is what leads to a golden future, and Truth, Gentleness, and Frankness guide the way. Love is darling little sheep that find a place in everyone's heart. There are some other sheep that come down the hil'side and sometimes try to crowd out the others. They are: Fear, Hate, Worry, and Temptation. Would you like to meet my friend, the shepherd? Ah, then you must travel among the hilltops, and find yourself amid the peaceful sight where few of this busy world take time to go. When you have wandered at random far from all earthly things, then you will find yourself with the shepherd and his sheep. I detached myself one day from all the world and wandered up the hillside, coming by accident upon the shepherd. It was a wonderful day and the beautiful sunshine brightened the landscape below. I had the selfish desire to have Mother Nature all to myself. There was nothing to break the stillness but the merry tinkle of the brook as the water rushed over the stones, then to go with a mad rush down the hillside. That is how thoughts are sometimes calm and merry, yet also exciting and confusing. I sat down on a gnarled old root of an oak to rest, half expecting to see a fairy pop out from nowhere. Then my glance fell upon the shepherd coming toward me from the opposite hill. He was a dear old codger with iron gray hair and his sheep scampered before him in a mad rush to surround me. Beautiful Thought caressed me and Love flung herself into my arms. Self-Confidence came close snuggling his nose against my car, while Truth, Centleness, Frankness, Joy, and What Other People Think were content to lie at my feet. As the sun sank slowly to its fiery bed, the shepherd told me how I could gain the friendship of all the sheep. He said that if I learned to love them wisely they would push out all the other sheep. I glanced at the beauty which was all around me, and when I looked back the shepherd and his sheep were gone. After that it grew lonely on the hillside so I wandered back down thinking all the while of what the shepherd had told me. It was something which I was to think often of when I was again alone with Mother Nature.
