Let us away with strife at this season. Now is the time to speak kindly words. Let us not carry into the new year the enmities of the old. Let not the harsh notes of contention come into the heavenly song of peace. Christ came to give peace, and from heaven's throne today He bends to give peace to all who trust Him. To have peace within the heart and home is to enjoy sincere and genuine happiness. Without it no joy can be really satisfying, no pleasure or gain worth while. With peace lacking there is always unrest in the soul, always an unsatisfied yearning no matter what else one may possess.

As our contribution to the development of the child, we have prepared a select list of Juvenile reading as a guide to mothers and teachers. This list of books recognizes the child's natural choice in reading—and at the same time does not lose sight of the fact that the young reader must have sane guidance. We will be glad to supply these lists on application-free.
