merchant, sends his favorite
prayer to the members of Nome
Igloo No. 1, Pioneers of Alaska,
to all the school students, young
and old, Eskimo and white, and
to all their fine, worthy parents.
“Lord, make me an instrument
of thy Peace; where there is ha
tred, let me sow Love, where;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is discord, harmony;
where there is doubt, faith; where
there is despair, hope; where there
is darkness, light; where there is
sadness, joy.
“'Divine Master, grant that I
may not so much seek to be con
soled as to console; to be under
stood as to understand; to be
loved, as to love; for it is in-the
giving that we receive; it is in
the pardoning that we are par
doned; it is in the dying that we
are born to Eternal Life. Amen.
—Peace Prayer of Saint Francis.
