Cold calm and Sunny wind is chilling. Monday is a day of Rushing duties after a day of Rest. The Sun has hardly begun his work when School time arrives, for the Shortest days are near us now. Scripture reading Luke 13:1-5. Mary is doing the tasks in the kitchen. I have my room cleaned and ready so I can read and work at whatsoever needs being done. Frank is at Clinton, when he comes he will work at Gip today.
Dad's hand is getting well where he can cut it on wire last week. Fanny come for Mary's Kodak. She was going to Mrs. Coulson's to their Club meeting and will take some pictures.

"Did You Pray?"
Did you think of me this mornign
As you breathed a word of prayer?
Did you ask for strength to help me
All my heavy burdens bear?
Did you speak of faith and courage
For the trials I must meet?
Did you ask that God might keep me
As you bowed before His feet?
Someone prayed and strength was given
For the long and weary road,
Someone prayed and faith grew stronger
As I bent beneath the load;
Someone prayed - the way grew brighter,
And I walked all unafraid,
In my heart a song of Gladness -
Tell me, was it you who prayed?
