GREETINGS FROM GREAT GRANDMA
To the Dear Social Corner: I am still interested and enjoy reading the Social Corner. How many of the sisters have read Edgar Guest's poems? I have read three of his books and think them nice for both home and social gatherings.
Last Christmas in sending a gift, not having a Christmas card I took a plain one and wrote St. John, third chapter, sixteenth verse.
In memory of "God so loved the world. He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." In response came the thanks, saying, I heartily enjoyed the sentiment of the card.
The thought came to me The Bible is full of promises and if each gift carries one promise, how much of divine love might be given. Count the blessings. Give God the praise and enjoy the gift the world cannot give. Peace and good will to all. As I cannot meet with you, will wear my badge and enjoy it, trusting love and unity may ever exist in the Corner circle.
