is the month now about spent? The first one of the year? Not so long ago its path wound away I- head, leading into secret places - by bends and groves. ever-beckou- ing, with all the appeal and my- story and fascination of a by-road of summer. Then we knew it not. Now we have proved its delights. We have experienced the joy of its level places. rounded its turns. climbed to its enchanted hilltops- and it is true. come down into the shadows of the valleys below. And now telling over in mind the hours of that pilgrim-way. one by one, we realize how exceedingly pleasant it has been. Blessed in- variably with the sweet content of 1arm-places, which stems from the joys of familiar surroundings and the peace of quiet acres. The mail- man's sleigh or others on this road of ours. the sound of n pssing ma- ch-ins or a plane on magic wing-- these fade in nicely. rather than disturb the serenity of these Jan- uary days. I

What exquisite intangible glean- ings the month has permitted! The calm of the wide winter-white peace; the beauty of quiet skies? the cool strength of the bills; the touching music of the wind. which gustfly or on light foot wandered into our snug valley. from some- where beyond lts rim. to play a sad little measure and haunting . . . of days past. and gone. And in a livelier tune, of delights yet to be.

”Because we never know; tomor- row may be too stormy to be out about - and besides we're not sup- posed to bring in wood on Sun- day. are we?" Mack a knowing lad and industrious for his five years. said, landing a load of it on his sled to the door.

And so we look back along to- day and beyond; to be pleased with the week as we found it. If it be that in it we have not al- ways "walked wortliy." it may be our good fortune to recall that we never once uttered ii complaint over our lot and station in life. confident that the place wherein we "labor" is the one of all the wide world that is particularly ours. Because. so we are assured. Thoreau appreciated this fact. He said: "I have never got over my surprise that I should have been born into the most estimable place in all the world - and in the very nick of time!" Another wrote words to recall on occasion when worries wear and cures cark: "Thou cameat not to thy place by accident.

It in the very placer God meant for thee;

And shouldst. thou there small scope for action see. '

Do not for this give room to dis- content."
