The Autobiogrrcrphy oI an Abcndoned Home f am old, bare of paint, and suffering all the pangs of age. What mitters it that f know my timbers are sound, and that there is much strength in me yet? My doors sag, and the wind rattles r4y windows. I have stood vacant for months; mice play about my foors and spiders spin their webs undisturbed; a memory seems all that is left.
Then unexpectedly the rusty hinge on my front door groans as it is forced bdck, men enter with paper, pencil, and rule. Low voices discuss walls and dimensions, and I strain my old ears to hear. My heart is near bursting with a hope of rejuvenation being born.
Then come days of pain as old pariitions are wrenched apart and confusion reigns. To the fountain of youth I am led, and today I stand again in all my pride and strength, more beautitut in design and finish and just as sound as when first built..
A sign says the public may enter, and all day they come. The old, with surprise and wonder in their faces. youth, with hands tightly clasped, in their eyes the splendor of dreams as they plan a new life together.
My opening da/ is over, and again the hush. But what a di,fferent stillness ! Now my rooms are filled with the sounds of happy voices, and again I listen to the patter of little feet. A day of happiness which began with the dawn, has witnessed a miracle: a HOME reborn.

A Recsoncrble Question
'lShown these poems to anyone else?', asked the editor. "No one," stoutly replied the author. .,No? Where'd you get that black eye?"

Make Up Your Hecrt
In public questions, as in private doubt, 'Tis not enough for man to figure out In terms material, in times distressed, How things will profit him, in coin expressed, Few questions man will properly decide, Gold for his God, and profit for his guide. He must consider more,,aye, all mankindMake up his conscience, making up his mind.
There is too much "How will this profit me?,' And not enougll "flow help humanity?"
Too much inquiring, "What will serve me best?" And not enough "How will this serve the rest?', No man is richer, what his scheme or plan, Who makes life poorer for some other man. He but grows poorer as he waxes rich Whose carriage crowds another in the ditch.
A hundred questions fret our world tonight. Yet only one, the question "Wrong or right?,, Whatever folly says, or sage replies, One question man can never compromise. In times like these men are too much inclined, Making decisions, to make up the mind; For deeper down the roots of living start: Consult your conscience, and make up your heart.
