“ What art* you going to fa- next year ' Better, or worm*, or the name, my dear : If you're not better, you’ll surely la* worse ; Nothing stands still in the universe." - .
I a»ked the New ear for some motto sweet, Some rule of life by which to guide my feet. I a*ked and paused. He answered, soft and low: ' God's will to know.' Will knowledge, thin, suffice New Year: I cried. But ere the question into silence died. The answer came : * Nay, this remember. too, God's will to do.’ Once more I asked: Is there still more to tell: And <>ue« again the answer sweetly fell: * Yea, this one thing all other things al>ove, God's will to love.’ " — h.xihn Hilt.
