VICTOR Says:
Well, il's here again, that beautiful time of year, Easter. I
would like to forget business this week and recall to you a
few words from one of America's great minds, Harry Emer
son Fosdick. It has always appealed to me as much more
than just a saying, rather It is something that the more you
read it the closer you get to its real meaning. And now to
quote, "Real prayer always does one of two things: If either
frees us from the trouble we fear or else it gives us the
strength and courage to meet the trouble when it comes."
