Religion

And an old priest said, Speak to us of Religion. And he said: Have f spoken this day of aught else?

Is not religion all deeds and all reflection, and that which is neither deed nor reflection, but a wonder and a surprise ever springing in the soul, even while the hands hew the stone or tend the loom?

Who can separate his faith from his actions, or his belief from his occupations?

Who can spread his hours before him, saying, "This for God and this for myself ; This for my soul, and this other for my body?"

All your hours are wings that beat through space from self to self.

He who wears his morality but as his best garment were better naked. The wind and the sun will tear no holes in his skin.

And he who defines his conduct by ethics imprisons his song-bird in a cage.

The freest song comes not through bars and wires.

And he to whom worshipping is a window, to open but also to shut, has not yet visited the house of his soul whose windows are from dawn to dawn.

Your daily life is your temple and your religion. Whenever you enter into it take with you your all. Take the plough and the forge and the mallet and the lute, the things you have fashioned in necessity or for delight. For in revery you cannot rise above your achievements nor fall Iower than your failures.

And take with you all men: For in adoration you cannot fly higher than their hopes nor humble yourself lorver than their despair.

And if you would know God be not therefor a solver of riddles. Rather look about you and you shall see Him playing with your children.

And look into space; you shall see Him walking in the cloud, outstretching His arms in the lightning and descending in rain. You shall see Him smiling in flowers, then rising and waving His hands in trees.

The Prophet, by Kahlil Gibran

Elegy

The jackals howl, the serpents hiss, fn what was once Persepolis, Proud Babylon is but a trace Upon the desert's dusty face.

The topless towers of Illium Are ashes. Judah's harp is dumb. The fleets of Nineveh and Tyre Are down with Davy Jones, Esquire, And all the oligarchies, kings, And potentates that ruled these things Are gone. But cheer up; don't be sad; Think what a lovely time they had !

No Weqsel

"So you lost your poor husband. did it happen?"

"IIe was keelt by a weasel."

"Killed by a weasel? That's very happen?"

"fs driving hotomobil. Is comeeng Deedn't hear no weasel."

I'm so sorry. How unusual; how did it to railroad crossing.

Jimmy Knew His Animals

"Jimmy, name some animals peculiar to the Arctic region."

"Lions, tigers, elephants."

"Do you mean to say you think you would find these animals in the Arctic zone?"

"No, ma'am; f mean it would be peculiar if they were found there."

On Mcrnhood

Any fool can stir anger. Cowards, liars, hypocrites and thieves can stir enmity. Ye need no manhood in the broth of vengeance; its ingredients are on the lips of fools, and in the hearts of the proud whose pride is meanness, and of the mean whose pride is ill-faith.

But which of you can change anger into good-will? Which of you can change enmity into friendship? That one hath manhood. Aye, he useth it. The Lords of Life will not neglect to test him. He is worthy, that one, of the hammer-blows of Wisdom, on the anvil of life.

-Sayings of the

Scrbotcae

Druid Taliesan.

During the days of Hitler, the revolt against the new order in Norway spread to the chicken coop, as indicated by the following story: A Norwegian farmer who owned 30 hens was ordered to deliver their eggs to Gestapo headquarters. Two weeks later he wrote the Gestapo: "Your order was posted in. the hen house, so that the hens themselves could see it. When, in spite of this, they refused to lay, I had them shot for sabotage against the Third Reich."

-Yank.

Not Here Yet

A pink elephant, a green rat and a yellow snake entered a cocktail bar.

"You're a little early, boys," said the bartender. ,,ffe ain't here yet."

The Puppy

The best insight into a dog was given me _by the maid when she said, "The puppy doesn't know she's a dog; she just thinks she's folks."
