We have the opportunity NOWto demonstrate our love for our threehundred and thirty fatherless childrenin a real tangible way. OLD CLOTHES Old clothes look glorified to me, If people wear them sacrificially— Daring not buy new ones at all Till they have answered folks who call For just a bit of help today, As oft with tear-stained eyes they pray. I like to see the same old clothesThat almost everybody knowsTwo hundred yards or more away—Worn year by year and day by day;That is, if those old clothes are wornBecause of others burdens borne. If clothes like that are on a manWho has a systematic planOf looking up each day the poor,To place a gift inside their door—They look like angel clothes to me,And that dear face is heaven to see. —E.

This is equivalent to saying that lifehas a purpose
