o, who will walk mile with me,
Along life's merry way?
A comrade blithe and full of glee.
Who dares to laugh out loud and free,
And let his frolic fancy play
Like happy child, through the flowers

That fill the field and fringe the way,
Where he walks mile with me.
And who will walk a mile with me,
Along life's weary way?
A friend whose heart has eyes to see
The stars shine out ore the darkening

A friend who knows, and dares to say
The brave, sweet words that cheer the

Where he walks a mile with me.
With such comrade, such friend,

ton because he stands out against
anythlng that Is to the injury OF the
sweetness OF home life.
He said: To-day It behooves every

audience by the assertion that the
danger most to be feared at this
present hour was almost unknown 10
