HONOR. NOT HONoRS.

renser and mightier hour by hour
Swels the throng upon life's highway,
Fiercer the struggle for place and power,
Till the giants Of old We're as babes today,
And the heart of the novice with child dis
may
Grows faint at the sight Of the hopeless race,
For how shall he soar, il there be not space
For the strong, swift beat Of his wings to
playS
Vrue, there may be many that throng the start
And eagerly jostle place to VIM
But only the patient and stout Of heart
Go on as bravely as they begin
And the ranks Of the runners are struggling
thin
When the road grows steep and the pathway
rough
And each will find there is room enough,
AS he nears the goal where the race comes in.
Yet not to all is the lot assigned
To win the laurel and wear the crown,
For fate is tickle and fortune blind
And sheds unsecing her smile or frown.
And the foremost runner is smittcn down,
When the bay clad summit is well nigh scaled.
What then? OF truth to have striyen and
failed
Is nobler thing than uncarned renownl
For the deafcning roar of the cheering crowd
Falls sweet on vanity eager ear,
And the fool is fattercd if praise be loud,
And discerns not the true from the insincere.
But the still small voice that the wise hold
dear
Is the voice that whispers within the breast:
"Thou hast fought thy battle and done thy
best.
When thy Captain calls, thou hast naught to
fear"
Then worl, while the blood in your veins run
strong
While limbs are supple and hearts are light;
While life is summer, and days are long
Ere winter comes with its sunless night
What though the deed that is done be slight,
Feebly wrought and with lack of skill!
Not the work itself, but the workers will
Availcth aught in the Masters sight
False and hollow the voice Of fame,
Fades the gilt on her glittcring scroll,
Nor halls she any with fun acclaim,
Till she hears the kncll Of his passing toll,
Then seek not place on the heroes roll,
But take for your guide, in the world despite,
Not "What snail it prodt" but God and
Right
Honor, not "Honors, shall be your goal.
