Among the many kinds of tree* in exist
ence, very few retain their foliage during the
cold winter months. Only a few withstand
the driving winds and storms and still main
tain beautiful green branches.
The graceful scene below shows a remark
able characteristic in the pine tree. Some
miraciilous element within the pine enables
it to display its lush greenery amid the
whiteness of faUen snow.
Such are the amazing qualities of nature—
the millions of wonders in God’s creation.
In order to understand more fully the God-
given powers within ourselves, we must
study the Holy Word and attend regularly
the services of the Church. By doing this we
will come to realize our potentialities and
talents and will learn to live a fuller more
useful life.
