The storm gets down his neck in any icy souse
That sucks his breath like a wicked cat in bed.”

it was so still;

and returned and ran
back into shadow.”

“To-day ... when material prosperity and well earned ease and luxury are assured facts from a national standpoint, womans work and womans influence are needed as never before; needed to bring a heart power into this money getting, dollar-worshipping civilization; needed to bring a moral force into the utilitarian motives and interests of the time; needed to stand for God and Home and Native Land versus gain and greed and grasping selfishness.”
