FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1938 SOCIETY MRS. THRO. & DAVIS, Editor Pleat* tend local or personal items to the RECORD shop by Tuesday night, if possible. PRAYER FOR A NEW MOTHER The things she knew let her for get again— The voices in the sky, the fear, the cold, The gaping shepherds and the queer old men Piling their clumsy gifts of foreign gold. Let her have laughter with her little one; Teach her the endless, tuneless songs to sing; Grant her the right to whisper to her son The foolish names one dare not call a king. Keep from her dreams the rumble of a crowd, • The smell of rough-cut wood, the trail of red, The thick and chilly whiteness of the shroud That wraps the strange new body of the dead. Ah, let her go, kind Lord, where mothers go And boast his pretty words and ways, and plan The proud and happy years that they shall know Together when her son is grown a man. Dorothy Parker.
