PRATER FOR THE NEW
TEAI^
The canoes of the old year, Lord,
Hav^i
flickered and burned low;
and
So 1 have lighted twelve new ones
And placed them in a row. -*
Dear Lord, let each tall candle’s licht
Bring joy where there was paiiji
To ^ose who know but grief and tears
And agonizing strain.
Let their bright flames reveal Thy
hand
To hearts bowed down with care;
May their soft ligtit lift shadows deep
To show that Thou art there.
And for myself, I ask but this:
Swift hands for loving deeds;
Kind words of sympathy/ttj^
■ And thought for others’ iie<^.
And, Lord,, lest 1 forg^ to ask.
Wilt Thou remove each doubt
Of Thee I may have had, before
These candles are blown out?
—WiUiani Arnette Wofford,
In Book, “Candle At Dusk.’

When The Baby Is Sick!
=—
B
i
When the baby is sick one of the first things you do is to call the DOCTOR^ And that’s
0
always the best procedure. Jlome remedies are all right In their place, but when a baby
is sick no time should be' lost in experimentation with proprietary m^icines.
And what comfort and peace of mind the.DOCTOR brings. Within a few minutes he
is in a position to determine thh seriousness of the sickness and relieve the anxiety of
both father and mothjer. He writes out a PRESCRIPTION and tells you to have it hlled
right away. ;
E
E
Now the job of filling the PRESCRIPTION is no smafl matter. It should be taken to a
PHARMACY that makes a specialty of PRE^RIPTION filUng; one where experienced
graduate PHARMACISTS are employed for this exacting work; one that uses only the
highest grade of materials, such as the Sadler-Owens Pharmacy. •
