THERE ERE OTHERS.

Don't imagine, my boy, if you throw W your
job
That the firm that employs you will fail,
That the whole office force III their anguish
will sob
And the senior partner turn pale.
You are highly efficient and active and bright
SO you say. I'm unwilling TO doubt you
But the chance of all this is Incredibly sight.
There are plenty of others without you.
Don't get mad with the girl, and to make her
feel bad,
Fail to go for your usual call,
It's the truth, though know it sounds awfuliy
sad
That she never may miss you at all.
It's a mighty poor policy staying away,
Though grant that at times she may fiout
You
But know that I'm in position to say
There are plenty of others without you.
Don't get soured on the world and do any
thing rash,
Not to speak of the good fer your SOUL
If you jump in the lake you may make a small
splash
But you'll never leave much of hole.
Don't expect folks to make such terrible
fuss,
When they think very little about you,
And to use common language, aren't caring a
cuSs-
There are plenty OF others without you.
