HEALTH AND BEAUTY "Christmas Prayer" Christmas timet are coming fast Who will be going home? To visit the old oiks they left behind While they ore doomed to roam. In foreign lands so far away Where God's good sun still beams Each soldier boy will be coming home If only In their dreams. Another picture of life's other side Is the old folks sad and alone Longing for the nearness of loved ones That nothing else can attone. Their weary minds call out In their sleep Names so familiar and sweet And no one else can satisfy No matter where they meet. Advice and bad medicine are alihe Easier to give than take We've all made mistakes of carelessness Try to do better for Christ mas's sake. To the boys in service so far from home To the aged away near or far In some strange locality may be And don't ever know where they are. They are each one of God's dear children Misplaced from loved ones and home Say a little prayer, visit If you can Send them a little Christmas Poem. The Perquimans County Weekly, Hertford, N. C, Thursday, December 10. 1970 - Page 3 In a world in which hate is on the march and fear is grip ping with its icy fingers the hearts of men, nothing is se cure. Everything that we were brought up to consider sacred is being reviled and jeered at. I Can anyone remain serene and find a measure of peace ana happiness amidst such turmoil? Yes, by finding the source of happiness which depends only secondarily upon material things. You must educate your heart as well as your head, if you would invite happiness to abide with you. If we would think more, we would forget ourselves in trying to make someone else happy. Merely contributing money, or sitting on a committee, or at tending meetings, is not enough. It's the personal self-sacrific ing work that counts. Christ showed us the way. He went about day by day serv ing his fellow men. His heart beat in sympathy for the sor- IIIIIIHIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIU rowing. He wept at the grave of Lazarus even though He knew thai. Ho himself would soon restore His friend to life. It was because he was touched by the grief of his friends. The writer was listening to a conversation one day among a group of educated people. One of them remarked that a work of art brought her happi ness; another said that she de rived great joy from her love of nature, a gorgeous sunset, a lovely flower, the lilting melody of a bird's song, the thrilling story of a strange ad venture. It's true that all these things make life fuller and sweeter. The appreciation of the beauti ful, especially In nature, is an unending source of enjoyment, but nothing can give that deep satisfaction to the human soul as can a love-filled life. The Master is our great ex emplar. When asked to name the greatest commandment, He replied, "Thou ahalt love thy God with all thy heart.. liiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiHHmHiiiiiiiiiiiiinii!
