Road John 1:13-17
The tone light that enlightens every man was coming
Into the world. (John 1:3. RSV) ,
In the world in which we live there is much darkness. We ■
People* and nations groping in the dark. Some think they have seen
the light: but they are following an illusion—some fates light which
guides no more, some light which has burned out in the course of
time.
But the light which people have seen in Christ never fades be
cause its very source is God. There are, of course, moments in our
Uves when we doubt this. There was such a moment in the minds
of the early disciples of Jesus. When He was crucified, dead, and
buried, they thought that was the end of the one whom they called
Master and Lord.
But to them, and to thousands of believing Christians through
out toe ages, in their moments of doubt, anxiety, end despair it has
been proved repeatedly that Jesus toe Christ' rises victoriously over
every evil force. The light which people have seen in Him will shine
eternally.
PRAYER
O Thou who art the eternal light, shine in the dark
ness ef our world and in the darkness of our scute. In
Thy light may we see light and fellow It to the cad of
onr day. In oqr great Redeemer’s name. *"»»"
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Jesus Christ—the light for the world yesterday, today and for
ever.

Camp Fire Girls had pockets in
their hats In the early days
They had pockets, also, in their
blue serge walking bloomers,
walking skirts, and blouses. For
Dr. Luther Halsey GuUck .who
founded the organization in 1010,
beliveed “pockets mean efficien
cy, order, having what is needed
handy, yet the hands are left
free to take hold of the next
thing.” He was a pioneer in en
couraging women to form health
habits,, and believed that they
would be more interested in exer
cise and outdoor exercise if they
dressed with comfort and free
dom, revolutionary in that era of
long tight skirts and corsets.
The Camp Fire Girls hat of blue
cloth not only had the conveience
of pockets, but could be worn “in
the rain or dust,” and was de
sign so that it would “well be
come any girl by twisting the
brim a little,” according to an
early manual. In describing the
official garments, the manual
emphasised, “Camp Fire Girls
have pockets!”
