HOOVER, chaplain of the House of Representatives, from McConnellsburg, pennsylvania, offered the following prayer: Most wise and ever-loving Lord, we thank Thee for Thy tender compassion, forgiving spirit, and everlasting mercy. We acknowledge our failures to measure up to that which Thou dost expect of us as well as our own potential. Many times we have failed Thee as well as our fellow men. and the allurements and enticements in life have drawn us away from that which Thou wouldst have us accomplish. So, O Cod, we turn to Thee with the hope and assurance that Thou wilt work in and through us to the attainment of Thy will and Thy way in our world. Keep these stewards of Thine in the hollow of Thy hand, impart to them the ability to judge wisely, and enable them to use competently the talents they Possess. From Thee cometh all knowledge, and to Thee belongeth all wisdom forever and ever. Amen. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE I. ~~~. ~~~~.
