Whilst writing these items I am wondering how many of those who read them will be here to see another New Year, and if they are all prepared to meet the summons that is sure to come as we are solemnly warned every day. Several families in this vicinity who are obliged to leave their place of residence, have thus far no place in view where they can find a fixed home. What is the matter? Is the world ting too full oi people or are some of them getting so much of it that there is none left for others. My heart aches for the homeless families. May the dear Father who tempers the wind to the shorn lamb, have mercy on them.
