HXRVEST MOON. tH2
The autumnal equinox Is upon us. Oxer the good earth rises th«,
harvest moon
It hovers over corn fields, where the farmer, glaneins
aloft, expects two or three more frost-free weeks in which to gather
his big crop. There I« a lushness In the air.
It shines down upon the little white houses in Vermont, theli
lean-tos chocks full with cord wood that soon will be roasting th<
good firm Macs."
It beams on farm animals growing their winte
pelage; it merrily brightens the hayrick starting off for the bar’
dance and husking bee. Much is right with the world.
But the glow is lost on the bright Incandescence of the factor;
where war production knows no day or night. It rests silently on th
blacked-out seaport and the line of men waiting beside the steam
ing transport.
Europe has its harvest moon now. too. In Northern latitudes It
lasts longer, seems to beam brighter. Perhaps It needs to this year,
for bumper crops are hard to seek out in the Old World.
May there be less of want and more of plenty by the time anothei
harvest moon rises over the cereal lands of the Balkans and th”
Ukraine.
The changeless laws of harvest have universal application. If In
this fall of 1942 we garner much we do not want it only proves the
need of wiser sowing—Christian Science Monitor.
