A Poem
From Mrs. Eby • • •
"-Thoughts Irom Grout Mind*—
Life is certainly worthwhile as
it represents struggle for wor
thy causes. I am quite certain that
the human being could not con
tinue to exist if he had perfect
security.
—Dwight D. Eisenhower
We are establishing an all time
world record in the production of
material things. What we lack is
a righteous and dynamic faith in
God. without it all else awaits us
little.
—John Foster Dulles
My country owes me nothing,
it gave me, as it gives every
boy and girl a chance, it gave
me schooling, independence of ac
tion, opportunity for service and
action.
—Herbert Hoover
If you would civilize a man,
begin with his grandmother.
—Victor Hugo
We can do anything we want to
do if we stick to it long enough.
—Helen Keller
My hope is that, when I am
gone, my son will remember me
not from battle, but in the home,
repeating with him one simple
prayer, ‘,Our Father which art
in heaven”.
—General Douglas MacArthur
Going to church doesn’t make
you a Christian any more than
gaing to a garage makes you an
automobile.
—Billy Sunday
When I was a boy of 14, may
father was so ignorant that I
could hardly stand to have the
to be 21 I was astonished at how
much he had learned in seven
years.
—Mark Twain
More things are wrought by
prayer than this world dreams of.
—Alfred Lord Tennyson
