THE BETTER WAY.

He his country best
Who Joins the tide that lifts her noby on:
For speech has myriad tongues for every day,
And song but one; and law within the breast
Is stronger than the craven law on stone;
There Is better way.
He serves his country best
Who lives pure life and doeth righteous deed
And walks straight paths however others stray
And leaves his sons. as uttermost bequest
stainless record. which all men may read;
This is the better way.
No drop but lifts the slowly lifting tide,
No dew but has errand to some flower
No smallest star but sheds some cheerful ray,
And man by man. each giving to all the rest
Makes the firm buwark OF the country's power;
There Is no better way
-(Susan Coolidge.
