Thoughts For The Times.
A Meeting. We met by chance—l do not know his name. Whither .he went his way or whence lie came again. Tie said no word, hut “Courage ’; then again. ‘Courage” he said, and gripped toe by the hands. A moment— lie was vanished in the throng That hurried homeward in the drizzling rain. I wonder if he knows and understands. How suddenly the world was full r.f song; Laughter and hope had hurst their prison liars, And life had lost its loneliness and pain. My fears were underfoot. I saw the sta rs. The blinding mists had hid this many n day. And clear before me gleamed a great highway. Where yesterday f sought a path in vain, —E. Williams David, In the “Welsh Outlook.”
