prayer follows! .°

“O thou who art the Lord of

cerned about what is sald and
done in..this council. chamber as
‘Thou art about the grest affairs ‘of
nations, bless we the’ be thed these

men chosen, by the Feople — the
village chairman and embers of
the town board — as they sincerely
seek to do thy will, make thy. will
plain to them.

“Help them to take from: St

unjust and unkind. Save them from
the hot-head that, would make them
act rashly and ‘from the. cold feet
that would prevent them from act-
ing'at-all. May their speech be such
as gives light rather than generates
heat.Grant them that faith; which
moves. mountains and makes short

“If “the hurts ‘of public life
come ‘their way help them to re-
member that the oak tree grows
strong. in adverse winds and the
diamond is made under ‘pressure.
Bless each of us according to our
need, we humbly ask in Jesus's
name, Amen.”
