with cny other pastor said the

POETS'
CORNER
?A?SAD ENDING
By F. Tate Allen
r?nwas
a very dreary evening,
??ui-n nil" stars had failed to
- rppearj
Dark shadows had crept across
the earth's pathway,
AttcTnol a living thing a soul could
heay.
Along a lonely pathway there
came,
An old man very much in need,
His hair was white from age of
course,
A helpless old man indeed.
HS3 clothing,, were poor, his health
"^had gone,
He was just a "helpless old man,
His faith l'est in his only prayer,
His case some one would
understand. % *
Along came a youth who troaded
this way,
In route to see a friend or two,
After listening he made his only
reply,
Sorry old man, there is nothing
I can do.
From lack of attention and very
poor health,
The old fellow grew worker each
day,
Until one Hay after n short prayer, 4
The old fellow passed away. ^
noi wjiat you gain, out what
did you do?
" o' aocomp'fsh such a noble deed,
Di.' v- n give your help rnd your
soi vice too,
Tr those who were In reed.
Surry old man. there is nothing I
can do,
[s this what you perhaps wi'l sav?
Or v'n stop for a moment
and think,
You too perhaps may pass this
way.
