COOPERATION.

Come" said the little Ether-Atoms
Let us cling together and march together
Millions and millions and millions are we:
Let us form and march likelth waves of
the sea,
With shoulder to shoulder, hand linked
in hand,
Line behind line of us. Here we stand!
Steady, there! Wait for the word of COM
mand.
Steady, my comrades! Is everything right?
Now, all as one of us. into the night!'
So they Slung together and marched to-
gether,
And the world was filled with light.
Come" said the little Vibrations-in-Air,
Let US cling together and work together
Starting not off on our separate tracks,
But all within touch, that whatever each
lacks
The rest may supply. and that each. great
or small
May something contribute-to soar. run
or crawl
Toward the one common end; there is
work for us all;
And mingling our efforts, the weak with
the strong, -
Break we path through the silence
along!"
Sc they chung together and helped one an
other,
And the world was filled with song.
And now" said the children of men on
earth,
Let us cling together, and work together,
And help one another, and turn our words
INTO golden action, and sheathe our
swordSi
Let US tunnel the mountain, span the plain.
Stretch hands to each other across the
main,
And each mans wealth be for all mems
gain; ,-
Then unto his neighbor let everyone
Say: BE of good courage and let the
word run s. z
So they chung together, and, 10! as in
