It was a raw, wintry day. The north wind was cold and blustery along the Thames. The city seemed almost deserted. Down one of the cheerless thoroughfares moved a stooped, poorly clad blind man. In his hand he carried a cheap, cherry-colored violin. With his knotty old fingers, now numb with cold, he attempted to play the instrument. Under the windows of the tenements he lingered, hoping some of the people inside would throw him a coin or two.

Two well-dressed gentlemen happened along, and one of them greeted the blind man. "This is a bad day, friend."
"It is a stormy day," the would-be violinist replied, "and the people will not open their windows."
"Why don't you make them open them? Play so that they will have to listen."
"I would that I could play that well," the aged man replied.

Patting the discouraged musician on the back, one of the gentlemen reached for the violin. "Let me play it," he said.
As he moved the bow gently across the strings, there floated out onto the wintry air music that seemed almost heavenly.

People raised creaking, frost-covered windows and thrust their heads out to see whence came this wonderful music. Children rushed out of the doors to listen. Coins came tinkling down to the street. The gentleman continued his playing, and more coins were thrown to the pavement. The second gentleman picked them up for the blind man.

The blind man asked him, "Who is this playing my old violin? He must be a master." "A master he is, indeed," came back the answer, "He is Paganini."

What a change had come over the old violin in the hands of the great master! Cheap instrument that it was, the music was touching, moving, entrancing.

You and I may be only ordinary people. We may not look very imposing. Our names may not be in "Who's Who." But oh, what music, what blessing, what uplift may come from our lives, if we yield ourselves to the great Master of the universe.-By James Wallace, Our Times, May 1949.

Quote: "It is always easier to feel that you love your neighbor across the ocean than to show you love the one across the street."-Unknown, Signs of the Times, June 16, 1914.
