The Evening Star

HAROLD SETON
IN The Chicago Evening Post

THE evening star a child espied, 
The one star in the sky.
"Is that God's service flag?" he cried 
And waited for the reply.

The mother paused a moment ere
She told the little one--
"Yes, that is why the star is there!
God gave His only Son!"
