I A New Year Prayer I Since my presence here on earth is a fact not a fancy this New Year's eve, I pray that through the pro cession of Life my energy and ambition may count for something, not so much to my self as to my fellow beings. There is a soul within each of God's children, and it grows or shrinks as it is cultivated by deeds of kindness or dwarfed by acts of cruelty. I pray, therefore, that my eyes may see the fullness of the Brotherhood of Man and my heart overcome the menace of the evil spirit. Only by living nobly, acting wisely and giving freely may I hope to win an honest place in the heart of humanity, for whoever serves the most, loves the best. I pray, therefore, for the capacity to serve. In all this cycle of things I could ask nothing greater of the Ruling Power than to give me opportunity to develop my own field and mine therefrom, by per sistent effort, the riches of brotherly love. I shall meekly accept all I deserve as time goes on my punishments and my rewards. t I pray that so long as I shall not descend to the level of usurping valuable space and adbiding therein as an inconsequential filler a sloth. I shall thank the Infinite Being for the opportunity to live on this earth where souls are comnig closer to gether in a bond of spiritual love and sympathetic devo tion by one common sorrow. I pray to be given strength to do a great part for our suffering humanity, but most of all, let me be worthy of the greatest blessing from the Higerarchy give me the innocent, untainted, holy love of all little children who are sent to us as Lightbearers of Love the divine link between Heaven and Earth. Tranquair was formerly Miss Lora Grace. A number of Camp Funston men spent New Year's with relatives in the city, among them Corporal Archie Laurence, Corporal Harold Merryman and Lieutenant Russell Israel. Lieutenant Randall Curtis of Camp Dodge also spent a few days here. Akita Campfire Girls. The Akita Campfire Girls will give a dancing party this evening at tVio hnmo nf 4i Ann Axtell.
