THE FRIENDLY SMILE.

Nothing is richer In gift or in guise
Than the hand OF friend and the
smile in his eyes:
In sorrow. in trouble, in grief and In
gloom
1t bursts through the night as a
rose bursts In bloom;
II helps DER the journey. II shortens
the mile
The hand of friend and friends
friendly smile
The hills we are climbing are never
When the smile of a friend sheds
its glory o'er all;
The road Is less rough and the path
for the feet
In the smile Of a friend runneth
rose.like and sweet;
The struggle is lightened. the burden
is borne
With joy in the smile of a friend !;
and the morn
OF hope and of effort and longing
and dream
Is brighter when bathed in its glow
and its CLEAN,
baltimore Sun.
