Excerpt from The Inglenook, Vol. 6: A Weekly Magazine; July 5, 1904 IT is a bright day. The sun is beaming upon the bosom of the waters, showing in all its splendor the thousands of little wavelets leaping here and there, revealing the constant change that is going on in the deep. As one stands on the shore and gazes into the distance his mind is bound to think of the great ocean of life. There each of us is a tinv wavelet skipping here and there, lasting but a brief moment as compared to the existence of old Mother Time. The sages have not missed it when they talk of life as a span and the grass withering, and old Father Time; all these mark changes. The time has-'come when our own family tie, the inglenook, makes its change. The nook has been fortunate during its life and has never had a change.
