THE EVERY DAY ADVICE
OCTOBER. All the year’s sweet heats and growths are fled; All the days are sad; and changed and sober All its golden glow, its burning red, As it wanes towards winter, through October. * -x- -x- -xThe best men, doing their best. Know, peradventure, least of what they do: Men usefnllest i’ the world are simply used. The nail that liolds the wood must pierce it first, | And He alone who wields the hammer sees The work advanced by the earliest blow. —E. B. Browning. 4 -x- -x- -x- -X----OYER-RULED. The threads our hands in blindness spin No self-determined plan weaves in; | The shuttle of the unseen powers Works out a pattern not as ours. Through wish, resolve, and act, our will Is moved by undreamed forces still; And no man measures in advance His strength with untried circumstance. ' —J. G. Whittier.
