Light Ahead
The stars that brighten life’s great hippodrome,
The Monarch’s that uncounted legions sway,
The Kings and Queens that rule the Yankee home;
The architects who think and plod and plan
To make of life a thing divinely broad,
Who build upon the “Brotherhood of Man”
Their concept of the Fatherhood of God:
The captains who thru troubled waters steer
The noble weather-beaten “Ship of State”;
The singers that gave forth their songs of cheer
To drown the discords of the hymn of hate.
The husbandmen who bring forth from the soil
The basic substance of the nation’s wealth,
The toilers who gave dignity to toil
And render psalms of praise for robust health;
The optimists that brush aside each cloud
That casts its shadow on the soul of man,
Who from the mount of manhood shout aloud
Glad tidings to the dwellers in the glen.
These are the hosts of Mooseheart that have grown
A mighty factor in the world’s affairs,
A harvest-time that to the world have
shown!
How just a few, mid all their earthly
cares,
Can lift the hearts of men to noble
deeds,
Endow their acts with Christ-like charity,
Direct their minds to scorn all shallow creeds,
And so control the nation’s destiny.
All hail to MOOSEHEART! Monument of Fame!
The summit• of Fraternity’s great goal,
Where child-life is the substance of life’s game,
And all is centered in the infant’s soul,
Where hearts, and minds, and hands are trained to be
The guiding spirits of Humanity.
All Hail to MOOSEHEART and its pioneers!
Who cut thru tangled growths a path of love,
Who gave to Mother Earth a song of cheers
That rock the citadels of God above.
CHAS. H. STEPHEN, Huntley, 111.
Elgin Lodge No. 799.
Mooseheart’s
Looking down the vista of the years That lie beyond, in vision I behold A• beacon light, that helps dispel my fears
Of future years; in promises of gold. Upon the dim horizon there appears A mighty host of warriors, true and bold,
Bearing a banner that all nations cheer;
A flag, with love displayed in every fold.
A wondrous army, not confined to sex, But where the twain united make their cause
The interests of all mankind to annex,
By Christian virtues, and with God-made laws.
Humanity forms their triumphal arch No hyphenates can to their ranks belong,
Old Glory leads them in their onward march,
It’s principles compose their battle song.
With power of “Purity” their swords they wield,
Nor can the powers of hell their heart dismay,
With “Aid” and “Progress” blazened on their shields
The foeman halt, and tremblingly give way.
These are the hosts of Mooseheart, once a spot.
Upon the smiling face of Illinois,
The offspring of a people poly-glot That once was Mooseheart’s little girls and boys.
Reared in an atmosphere that trains for life
They proved well-balanced units from the start,
With minds to think, with hands to strangle strife,
And human love inscribed within their hearts.
Launched on the world, fitted to meet its cares,
Ennobled with a pure democracy,
They forge ahead, escaping every scare
That lies concealed beneath illiteracy.
These are the hosts that Mooseheart trained to fight,
With all the mother-love at her command.
Whose powers are guided by their sense of right,
Whose hearts dictate the function of the hand,
Whose souls are by the wants of man inspired,
Whose lives are measured by the “Golden Rule,”
Whose sturdy, staunch, development was fired
By human methods in the Mooseheart School.
These are the actors of the stage today.
Don’t Be Too Serious
yesterdays. All the past was once future, and as we look back on it, we wonder how we could have been terrified at the mystery it seemed to present. And we sometimes catch ourselves worrying about the troubles of others. We know an estimable old lady who has spoiled many of her days worrying about how terrible the poor Kaiser must feel. It is indeed easy to be too serious. Of course, the forced optimist is pathetic, but the confirmed pessimist is hopeless. The fellow who will pull through and find something to smile about every day is the one who has found out that life is made up of a series of troubles, most of which never happen.
The danger of taking one’s self too seriously has been often spoken of, but, like every deep truth, it cannot be emphasized too much. We think, sometimes, that life is pretty serious, and it is. But just when things seem so mighty serious that something terrible is bound to happen, we find that we have been crying before we were hurt. The man who first marked on the callendar, “this is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday,” touched a deep truth. If everything was really as serious as it seems sometimes, life would truly not be worth living. But many of the difficulties and troubles that now loom mountain high before u־, will disappear as we approach, and the tomorrows will be a lot like the
