Poems

LOVE EACH OTHER

From the November 1895 issue of The Christian Science Journal


"Little children, Love each other,"
Were the words of sainted John.
When, the journey nearly ended,
This the thought, he dwelt upon.

Why speak so oft of this, they question?
Still he answered just the same,
" Little children, Love each other,
"Twas this to teach that Jesus came."

Many were the seeming hardships,—
Long had been the five score years.
Loved by Jesus, most of all—
He had conquered all his fears.

As the purest diamond sparkles,
Clearest, in the darkest night,
So from out this long earth-trial,
Blazed this sparkling ray of light.

"Little children, Love each other."
Spoken now to you and me,
Lived and practised day by day,
To earth's problem it's the key.


We are pleased to announce that the "Buswell Case" has been published in pamphlet form and is now in the publisher's hands ready for distribution. Also the excellent article by Carol Norton published in the July Journal entitled "Woman's Cause." See Publisher's Department.
