Diseord is noise. | N.oiae is the hoot of the mob. the jabber of the demagogoue, the rant of the. fanatic. Sound with a purpose is music. Music is harmony. The elo quence of the patriot, is harmony, lor eloquence is sound produced by thf' rythmic blending of rea son and truth. Discord is the ox predion of falsehood. ignorance or hate. Harmony reveals truth, Vnowledge and love. Let your personality make a sound and be heard in the orches tra of human life. But be sure von are in tune.. Do not permit | vonr life to mak* a discord. Dis ?ord causes disintegration. Har mony means unity. Stanch upon h? trutli. fill yourself with knowl *ound and be heard in the orclies "dge, attune vourself to love and vour life wil) sound true. wmr MID KS imraif ih?. Martha I?
