Where lightly the forest Bhadows fell. This church was bullded, and builded well. Its walls were fashioned from bush and vine; Its rwf, the branches of fir and Pine; Its floor, the carpet where wild flowers rest: Its 8l re. the tree where the eagles nest; All swayed by the touch ot a sum mer's breeze. Sweet little, quaint little "Church In the Trees." Time dragged his footsteps from yoar to year; The stranger entered and settled here; We grew and prospered, though all were poor,. And hapny children played round tho door; Yet no home of worship the soul to ease, -1 Naught, save the "Little Church In tho Troos." Where hearts are earnest they find a way, . There's ever an answer for those who pray; Where seeds are dropped In a fertile soil, , There's ever a harvest tor those who toll; So a band of women found a way, This church was finished ono happy day. Full fifty yesrs this building has stood. 'Twas bullded of human flosh and . blood, . . Of tithes and struggles and hopes de- . , ferred, Of soft entreaty and kindly word; And sweetest memories linger hero Of vanished forms that wero once so dear. Perhaps, some day. a grander wni rise Its steeple piercing the starry skies, Whose walls of granite and girders strong , - Will toss back echoes of prayer and song; No matter how rich and grand all .tdese, v . .. , , ., , i 'Tis still "The Little Church in the Trees."1' ' - -It.
