Today's column was to be devot
ed to Red Cross again, hoping that
I might be able to answer a few
questions that would make the
work of the solicitors a little easier.
After a day of it myself I was
completely possessed by a feeling
that everything was bogged down, J
nothing was right and I dropped
off to troubled sleep, a victim of
complete pessimism.
At ten minutes of midnight I was
called to the telephone. It was my |
son, telling me to go outside and
see the northern lights. For the
next twenty minutes I stood out
side in bedroom slippers and coat,
watching in speechless wonder the
most magnificent and awe-inspir
ing display I have seen in many
years.
Strangely enough it started in
the southern sky. A great arc of
green spanned the bay from shore
to shore, slowly spreading in broad
rays until it reached the zenith,
forming the effect of a mighty
splash in the center of which were
fine stars, so that it loooked as
though the rays were extended
from the points of the stars.
Before our eyes the whole sky
became filled with the cjuiet inex
orableness of God, then increasing
our wonder, the northern sky took
on a tinge of red, rapidly deepen
ing until it was a deep glow. Mt.
Alice then took fire and gradually
the whole sky was a brilliant red
and I could almost feel a tingle
along the nerves and my hair fair
ly stood on end.
Looking about at the sleeping
town. I wanted to call out my
friends and neighbors lo see for
themselves, but by that time the
lights had begun to fade and I
selfishly stood alone with my
family amidst all that splendor.
Every so often I get the idea
that what I am doing is all-import
ant. That I must push and plead,
bully and lead others into njy way,
toward my goal, to the achieve
ment of my project. And just as
often I am put back into my proper
place of insignificant human, al
lowed to walk about for a few
years among the possessions of a
mighty master, to live and quarrel,
work and love in a lifetime which
is but a fraction of the infinity of
time.
Yes, to gaze at the sky last night
made one humble, and uncon
sciously and wordlessly a feeding
made a person promise to carry on
with the best that is in him.
That is my message to you, my
fellow workers in the great hu
manitarian cause of Red Cross. Do
your best, and the people will do
theirs. It is not for us to judge
what is the best for others, it is up
to the individual and his God.
This morning I am cheerful and
optimistic. We will succeed. Sew
ard will take its place on the list
of friendly, charitable and Chris
tian cities. All it needs is the op
portunity — which you are offer- '
ing.
So — carry on:
