A quorum being present the proceedings were opened with a devotion by the Chaplain as follows:
The little Letter of St. James has a word for our market-place (1:12):
"Blessed is anyone who endures temptation.
Such a one has stood the test and will
receive the crown of life that the Lord
has promised to those who love Him."
Let us pray.
God our Father, as we are thrust about each day in the scramble of practical politics, of parliamentary strategy and legislative resolve, lift up our hearts!
In this holy moment we seek our orientation before You before we come to our calendared duties.
As representatives of our people, give us the realization that, in the midst of it all, there is honor and privilege and the opportunity for measureless good and accomplishment.
So, dear Lord, throughout this session lead us through the thickets.
Amen!
The PRESIDENT called for Petitions, Memorials, Presentments of Grand Juries and such like papers.
