Not a Cloud ever remains long in the same place. And never has there been two Clouds the same. In fact, the glory of the, ‘Clouds, their fascination and their usefulness as brain stimulators, lie almost wholly in their variety— their changeability. But, as you glory in the aciityy of the Clouds, do not forget what they do, how they sprinkle the earth and freshen it, and how they make it possible for you to live from the harvests of the. fields. Remember how in snow they formulate the myriads of intricate crystals, more marvelous than the human hand has ever been able to fashion, and do not forget how at times they shield the burning sun, thus protecting millions of lives at critical periods, But these few sentences are just suggestions. As you go and as you come, look into the heart of the Clouds and do honor to them. Your time won't be wasted in studying the Clouds.
