The American Woman.

One of the greatest afiictions OF

out of ten cannot make up their
minds in an emergency. cannot grip

course OF action for themseives with

ciates or their supervisors. This Is
a generalization and. like the pro-
verbal rule. is proved by It's out

PRIDE.

You're holding your head too high:
You're the slave Of foolish pride.
With your face to the starry sky
You would try to look dignif1ed,
But you're trampling on the flowers
That around your pathway lie;
You are crushing the blossoms beneath
your feet,
And you never can see in your blind con-
ceit,
For you're holding your head too high.
You are holding your head too high.
You have nothing to give but a sneer.
You are passing your old friends by
For the new, who are less sincere.
An, It's all very well, my dear.
With proud and scornful eye,
TO look up at the stars in this world of
ours,
But you'll often forget to look down at
the flowers
When you're holding your head too
high.
